G5 (F#5)
Single room in a cheap part of town
G5
And the elevators broken down
(B5)C5
So I walk up the stairs
C5
No one cares about the rent
(A5)G5
When your playing the bill as me
(F#5)
Dirty dishes got a stain on my shirt
G5
I eat alone and I'm outta of work
(B5) C5
Tell me what did you think?
C5
I'm the same, haven't change
Em
Just been going by a different name
Pre-chorus:
B7
What a waste
G
But I'm coming back to say
G G7 (B5) C
I'm no big shot, big town, big money
C
Off to buy a jet
(A5) G
Fly it all around the country
G7
Sometimes when the weather's right
(B5)C (Cm)
I sail it to the ocean stay overnight
G
Well I went for broke
G7
The last time we spoke
C N/C
Now I'm coming back here to say
G G7 C
Everything is going my way
G G7 C
Well everything is going my way
G5 (F#5)
I grab the bus from the damp hotel
G5
I grab things and I'm ready to sell
(B5) C5 (B5)
That I'll want out of time
C5
All the things that I loved
(A5) G5
All the memories that use to be mine
(F#5)
They're gone, yeah, I've thrown them away
G5 (B5)C5
They're gone, and I'm gonna mess up today
Em
Will you ask another day?
B7
What a waste
G N/C
Well I'm coming back to say
G G7 (B5) C
I'm no big shot, big town, big money
C
Off to buy a jet
(A5) G
Fly it all around the country
G7
Sometimes when the weather's right
(B5)C (Cm)
I sail it to the ocean stay overnight
G
Well I went for broke
G7
The last time we spoke
C N/C
Now I'm coming back here to say
G G7 C
Everything is going my way
