[F#] [D]
[E] [A] I know it's somewhat obtruse, I've been told [E] this abuse
[A] Ain't more than likely to make me go [E] blind
But with a [A] heart that's aching it's a [F#m] risk worth taking
[D] This true love they say [E] is so [A]

[E] [A]
[D] [E] So [A] why can't you see what you're [D] [E] doing to me
[A] If I'm staying alone and [D] [E] secretive
[A] And living the dream, [F#m] getting lost on the screen
I'm [D] doing Presley in front [E] of the mirror
[A] And I'm hanging around [D] getting [E] high on the [A] sounds
Of the ladies that elect [D] to tell [E] us
[A] Ross, double yellow [D] line, [F#m] who knows where
[D] Six sets, [A] glory [E] at night
[A] In some bar
[D] [A] Midwest [E] [A] midnight
[D] Ten thousand watts [E] of [A] holy light
From [F#m] my
[D] radio [A] It's clear
[E] [D] Everybody's [A] [E] [A] listening
[D]
Everybody [E] [A] listening
As [F#m] the man plays all the [D] hits
That you [A] wanna hear

[A] [E]
[D] [E]
With [A]
[D] [E] [A]
[D] [E] a [A] will to believe
And [D] songs [E] on the sleeve
[A] Well, if only you'd known from [D] the [E] start
[A] Such a sensitive toy [C#m] for [F#m] a suburban [B] boy
[D] Who believed he was suffering [E] with heart
[A] And if something went wrong
And [G] he watched his [E] [A] songs
Met a slow death, silenced worse
[E] He [A] was taken to task by [F#m] some critical ass
Who [D] had to write
[E] Words or [A] lyrics first
You should [D]
be grateful
For [A]
what's inside the door
You [G] know this house [D] is a big [A] old bitch
[D]

[G]
[D]
[E] Even if you're
[A] chasing the fame
[D] Keeps them all in [E] your [A] game
But money's still the way [D] they keep [E] score
[A] And nobody told [C#m] you that [F#m] you would get old
Strung [D] out like some never-new [E] whore
[A] Highwaymen released
Get [D] shot through [E] the [A] grease
Some L.A. Madonna's [D] malign
[E]
[A] Had New York's [C#m] call
[F#m] Just to see if [Bm] you heard about [D] the great
[E] English man [A] they just signed
Take me [D] back to [E] midwest [A] midnight
[D] Ten thousand [E] watts of [A] holy light
[E] From [F#m] my [D] radio
[A] [E]
[A] [D] [A] [E] Spear
Body's [A] glistening
[D] Is anybody [E] [A]
