A few words were tricky to hear.
Any correction of the lyrics will be welcome :)
[Intro]
|C#m7 | C#m7 G#m7 |
x4
[Verse 1]
C#m7
Said I'm going to New York City
G#m7
To blow up the Brooklyn Bridge
F#m7 G#m7 C#m7
Cos I've burned every bridge from Venice to the Valley
C#m7
So it's goodbye you Hollywood hustlers
G#m7
So long you cocktail kids
F#m7 G#m7 A#m7b5
I'm Broadway-bound to make my grand finale
[Chorus]
D#7#9 Emaj7
There he goes the bard of Brentwood
G#m7
Down Sunset and Beverly Hills
F#m7 A/B B7 Emaj7
With a bleach blonde in his Beamer and a pocket full of pills
D#7#9 Emaj7
He's the poet of the people
G#m7
With a trust fund to pay his bills
F#m7 A/B B7
Bringing dope rhymes for these hard times
Emaj7
A cure for society's ills
D#7#9 Dmaj7 Dmaj9 G6 F#7sus4
And he's coming to save the world
F#7sus4 G7sus4 G#7sus4
Save the world
[Instrumental]
|C#m7 | C#m7 G#m7 |
x2
[Verse 2]
C#m7
Roll that shiny wagon eastward
G#m7
Like a tumblin' tumbleweed
F#m7 G#m7 C#m7
Maybe pick up some Peyote down in Austin
C#m7
On the road again with Jack Kerouac
G#m7
Blowin into Greenwich Beach
F#m7 G#m7
There's a million losers lives there
A#m7b5
Getting lost here
[Chorus]
D#7#9 Emaj7
There he goes the bard of Brentwood
G#m7
Down Sunset and Beverly Hills
F#m7 A/B B7 Emaj7
With a bleach blonde in his Beamer and a pocket full of pills
D#7#9 Emaj7
He's the poet of the people
G#m7
With a trust fund to pay his bills
F#m7 A/B B7
Bringing dope rhymes for these hard times
Emaj7
A cure for society's ills
D#7#9 Dmaj7 Dmaj9 G6 F#7sus4
And he's coming to save the world
F#7sus4 G7sus4 G#7sus4
Save the world
