INTRO
D G Em A D


VERSE
Em           G          A*
When are you gonna come down
D                      G  F#*
When are you going to land
  Em           G            A*
I should have stayed on the farm
              D*
I should have listened to my old man

    Em             G          A*
You know you can't hold me forever
  D                   G  F#*
I didn't sign up to you
    Em     G               A*
I'm not a present for your friends to open
     D*                                Em G A*
This boy's too young to be singing the blues

D   G  F#*
Ahhhh

Em G A
Ahhhh


CHORUS
   D              Em    F#
So goodbye yellow brick road
          G               D
Where the dogs of society howl
    D                      G       F#*
You can't plant me in your penthouse
     A               D     Dmaj7
I'm going back to my plough

Bm                      F#
Back to the howling old owl in the woods
G                      Bb
Hunting the horny back toad
C       D                  G          F#*
Oh I've finally decided my future lies
   Em             A     Bb  C
Beyond the yellow brick road

F   Dm
Ahhhh

Bb  C   D*
Ahhhh


VERSE 2
Em          G            A*
What do you think you'll do now
  D                      G         F#*
I bet that'll shoot down your plane
      Em         G         A
It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
   D*
To get you on your feet again

Em           G        A*
Maybe you'll get a replacement
        D                    G    F#*
There's plenty like me to be found
Em     G     A
Mongrels who ain't got a penny
  D*                                 Em  G  A*
Sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground

D   G   F#*
Ahhhh

Em G A
Ahhhh
