Em         C     G            D
I want to live alone in the desert
Em         C     G            D
I want to be like Georgia O'Keefe
Em           C           G           D
I want to live on the Upper East Side
Em             C           G      D
And never go down in the street


Em        C          G      D
Michael Jackson in Disneyland
Em              C             G      D
Don't have to share it with nobody else
Em          C            G       D
Lock the gates, Goofy, take my hand
Em             C           G      D
And lead me through the world of self


[Chorus]
Em           G
Splendid isolation
D                Am
I don't need no one
Em            G      D      Am
Splendid isolation


C              D            Em
Don't want to wake up with no one beside me
C              D            Em
Don't want to take up with nobody new
C              D          Em
Don't want nobody coming by without calling first
C           D         Em
Don't want nothing to do with you
