[F#m] [D]
[A]
[F#m] [D]
[A] You were always 18 in the back of [F#m] my mind
[D]
[A] living [F#m] off daydreams
[D]
[A] at [F#m] Hollywood and [D] fine
[A]
[F#m] stars in a [D] tragedy
[A] We were cutting loose
[D]
[A] busy putting our necks [D] out [A] and
Taking [F#m] turns with the [D] news
Acting [E] for the cameras
[A] We're not [D] around
But we never [E] had Paris [A] more like [D] Chinatown
[F#m]
[D] [A]
[F#m]
[A] There been water [F#m] in the sink
[D]
for maybe [F#m] three [D] days
[A]
Nobody [F#m] dared reaching [D]
in [A] to pull out [F#m] the drain
You said [F#m] hey Sam
[D]
[A]
Where's [F#m] the next lead?
[D]
[A] Then you stood [F#m] there clicking [D] your heels [A] with red shoes on your [D] feet
You cast [E] me in the spotlight
[A] Why I'm not a leading [D] man
Frankly [E] my dear [A] you never gave a [D] damn
[A]
[A]
[F#m] [D]
[A]
[F#m] [A]
You said my [F#m] songs were [D] setups
[A] for predictable [F#m] rhymes
[D]
[A] And I said I [F#m] was fed up
[D]
[A] with this
[F#m] pantomime
[A] You always [F#m] put your makeup [D] on
[A] before picking [F#m] a fight
[A] That way when [F#m] the [D] tears rolled [A] down you would look [F#m] just [D] right
You bolted [E] away
I [A] came crashing [D] down
But you were [E] my [G#] Lucy and [A] I was Charlie [D] Brown
[A] The [F#m] [D]
[A]
[F#m] [A]
[A] seats were all filled
[D]
[A] The lights had [F#m] gone dim
[D]
[A]
Music [F#m] was [A] carefully
Drawing us [D] in
[A] But there's [F#m] only one act
[D]
[A] In the curtain [F#m] stone close
[D]
[A] We [F#m] never tired [D] of watching [A] ourselves in the starring [F#m] roles
[D]
Acting [E] for the cameras
[A] When none were [D] around
But we never [E] had Paris
[A] more like [D] Chinatown
[A]
[F#m] [D]
[A]
[F#m] More [D] like [A] Chinatown
