Chords for Elton John - Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters (1972) With Lyrics!

[C] _ _ Now I know _ _
[E] _ _ Spanish [Am] Harlem [C] are [F] not just pretty [C] words to say
[Dm] _ I _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ thought I knew, _ _ _
[E] _ but now I [Am] know that [C] rose [F] trees never grow _ [C] _ in New [Dm] York City
_ _ _ Until _ [F] _
_ _ [C] you've seen this [Dm]
trashcan dream come [C] true
You [F]
stand at the [C] edge while [G] people run you [C] through
And _ [F]
I thank the [C] Lord _ there's [Dm]
people out there like [C] you
_ _ [F] I thank the [C] Lord there's people out there [Dm] like you
_ While _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ more [C] thieves and [Bb] mad hatters, [F] sons of bankers, sons [C] of lawyers
Turn around and say good morning to the [F]
night
_ _ _ _ For [E] unless they see the [Am] [C] sky, but [F] they can [C] and that is [D] why _ _
They _ [F] know not if it's [G] dark outside [F] or _ _ [C] light
_ _ [F] _ [C] _ _ [Dm] [C] Sprawl with God, _ _ [E] _ he's got a [Am] lot of songs [C] to sing
[F] If I knew [C] the tunes I might join [Dm] him
_ I'll _ _ _ [C] _ go [C] my way alone, _ _ [E] I'll grow my [Am] own, my own [F] seed shall be sown
[C] _
In New York [Dm] City, _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ [F] _ _ Subway's [C] no way for [G] a good man to go [C]
down
_ _ [F] _ Rich man [C] can ride and [G] the hobo he can [C]
drown
_ [F] And I thank [C] the Lord _ for the [G] people I [C] have found
I [F] _ thank the Lord [C] for the people I [Dm] have _ found _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
While [C] more thieves and [Bb]
mad hatters, [F] sons of bankers, sons [C] of lawyers
Turn around and say good morning to [F] the night _ _
For _ _ [E] unless they see [Am] the sky, [C] _ [F] but they [Am] can and that is [D]
why
_ They _ _ _ [F]
know not if [G] it's dark outside [F] or light
