Verse 1

Am G6 While the music played you worked by candle light F6/9 Bb13 Those San Francisco nights, you were the best in town Am G6 Just by chance you crossed a diamond with a pearl F6/9 Bb13 You turned it on the world, that's when you turned the world around F6 G Am G6 Dm7 G6 F6 Did you feel like Jesus? Did you realise Em7 Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7 That you were a champion in their eyes?

Verse 2

Am G6 On the hill the stuff was laced with kerosene F6/9 Bb13 But yours was kitchen clean. Everyone stopped to stare at your technicolour motorhome Am G6 Every A-frame had your number on the wall F6/9 Bb13 You must have had it all. You'd go to LA on a dare and you'd go it alone F6 G Am G6 Dm7 G6 F6 Could you live forever? Could you see the day? Em7 Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7 Did you feel your whole world fall apart and fade away?

Verse 3

Am G6 Now your patrons have all left you in the red F6/9 Bb13 Your low rent friends are dead. This life can be very strange Am G6 All those day-glo freaks who used to paint their face F6/9 Bb13 They've joined the human race, some things will never change F6 G Am G6 Dm7 G6 F6 Son, you were mistaken You are obsolete Em7 Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7 look at all the white men on the street

Verse 4

Am G6 Clean this mess up else we'll all end up in jail F6/9 Bb13 Those test tubes and the scale, just get it all out of here Am G6 Is there gas in the car? Yes, there's gas in the car F6/9 Bb13 I think the people down the hall know who you are F6 G Am G6 Dm7 G6 F6 Careful what you carry 'cause the man is wise. Em7 Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7 You are still an outlaw in their eyes
