My life is so successful

I've got everything a man could

ever need.

 TV

C minorCm          DmDm   D#D#

There's a question I can't get out of my head.

It's killing me that no one knows
  F6F6            FF
Why it was built 5000 years ago.
C majorC               G minorGm
  Why did they build the Stonehenge?
  D#D#          D#Maj7D#maj7
How could they raise the stones so high

We have today?

VERSE 2

When I make my jalapeños

Calamari and prosciutto
    D#Maj7D#maj7 D#maj7b5 | D#Maj7D#maj7 D#maj7b5 D#maj7*
I'm the king!

G minorGm        Gsus2Gsus2
My wife applauds me in the kitchen
    G minorGm       Gsus2Gsus2
When I tell her all I bought is
   D#Maj7D#maj7     D#maj7b5 | D#Maj7D#maj7 D#maj7b5 D#maj7*
from the local store

C minorCm              DmDm    D#D#
And when the kids have gone to bed, we're all alone

  All I think of is Stonehenge
 D#D#       D#Maj7D#maj7
I think about it when I dream

The biggest henge that I have ever seen
C majorC               G minorGm
  What's the purpose of Stonehenge?
 D#D#      D#Maj7D#maj7
A augmentedA giant granite birthday cake
   Fsus4Fsus4     FF
Or a prison far too easy to
 G+G       A minorAm
escape?

BRIDGE (technically starts with the G+G on "escape?")

FF
 Stonehenge! Stonehenge! Lots of stones in a row!
     G+G
They were 25 tons each stone, my friend
   A minorAm
But amazingly they got them all down in the sand
     FF
And they moved it (Stonehenge!)
And they dragged it (Stonehenge!)
     G+G            Asus4Asus4
And they rolled it 46 miles from Wales!

CHORUS 3

D MajorD        F# minorF#m G+G A minorAm
  What's the deal with Stonehenge?
  FF         Fmaj7Fmaj7
You should have left a tiny hint
     Gsus4Gsus4       G+G       D MajorD
When you made this fucking labyrinth, of stone! (Who the...)
           A minorAm
Who the fuck builds a Stonehenge? (fuck builds a Stonehenge?)
  FF            Fmaj7Fmaj7
Two Stone Age-guys wondering what to do
  Gsus4Gsus4          G+G
Who just said: "Dude, let's build a henge or two!"

OUTRO
**Chords in () are optional but compliment the voicing of the song**

A augmentedA            G+G
  I would give anything to know
(E minorEm)   (B minorBm)  A augmentedA
About the Stonehenge
               G+G
Yeah, I would give all I have to give
     (E minorEm)   (B minorBm) A augmentedA
Would you give them your car?
                             G+G
Mmm Are you kidding me, of course I would have given the car
  (E minorEm)  (B minorBm) A augmentedA
What car do you drive?
                   G+G
Drive a Civic, drive a Civic. Drive a Civic!
 (G+G) (E minorEm)(B minorBm) A augmentedA
A majorA car you can trust!
                     G+G
Never mind the car, let's talk about the henge
What henge is that again?
A augmentedA
  It's the Stonehenge, it's the Stonehenge!
  G+G              A augmentedA
God, it is the greatest henge of all!
       C# minorC#m D MajorD E minorEm  G+G
What's the meaning of Stone-henge?!

--------------------------------------------------

There's the tab! As you can see they use all sorts of music tricks by using chords from
different keys.

You can make some of the chords more complex to better match the piano if you'd like,
though the chords I used above should provide just enough flavor making the song overly difficult.


Tune guitar half a step down and play the following for the intro (let the notes ring):

eb|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb majorBb|--4----4-----4----4-----4----4----4----4----4----4----4----4----4-----4----4----4--|
GbGb|--4----4-----3----3-----4----4----3---------4----4----3----3----4-----4----3-------|
DbDb|----------6----------------------------6----------------------------------------6--|
AbAb|---------------------6---------------------------------------------7---------------|
Eb MajorEb|--4---------------------4-------------------0-------------------0------------------|

Then play the rest of the song as normal but shift each chord one half step up (one fret).
