A E G#mb5 And Joan of Arc, she warned A#mb5 C#m7 "The Lord has a lot of friends, and in the end G#m/D# A E He'll probably forget he's met you before" A E G#mb5 Oh Charles, tell me about the end A#mb5 C#m7 You were there the day the music died G#m/D# A E I'll be there the day it dies again A E G#mb5 He said, "A masterpiece belongs to the dead A#mb5 C#m7 There are microphones under your bed G#m/D# A E And there's footage that will prove us both wrong" A E Can't you see? G#mb5 A#mb5 C#m7 Like Joshua kick-kick-kicked the king out of Jericho G#m/D# A E I'm about to kick your ass up and down this street Bridge: A Here I come, here I come, here I come, here I come E Here I come, here I come, here I come, here I come G#mb5 Here I come, here I come, here I come, here I come, here I come A#mb5 Here I come, here I come C#m7 G#m/D# Here I come, come, here I come, here I come, here I come A Here I come A* Asus2 (Alternate these 2 chords on each strum) Oh, oh Oh, oh Oh, oh Oh Guitar Riff with Em chord in background: eb|-------------------------------------| Bb|-------------------------------------| Gb|-------------------------------------| Db|-------------------------------------| repeat Ab|---7-7-7-7-7-7----7-7-7-7-7-7--------| Eb|---0-----------7--------------5------| Bass riff is something like this: Gb|--7h9---9-9-9----7-------------------7-------------------------| Db|-------------------9p7-------------7---9h7---------------------| Ab|-----------------------10-----7h10---------10h7--7-7---5-7-7---| Eb|---------------------------------------------------------------| Here I come come here I come repeat over and over with bass riff: Verse 2: A E G#mb5 A#mb5 C#m7 I knew a man he sat behind a desk that was a million feet wide G#m/D# A E But he laid down his hammer and he died A E G#mb5 A#mb5 C#m7 I knew a man, big and fat, born without arms or legs G#m/D# A E Born to jump in the air and clap A E G#mb5 A#mb5 C#m7 He said, "Hang me from a yo-yo or a rope And I'll be hanging by my neck all the same G#m C#m7 A B E So too shall I reach Long Island City, one of these days" A E G#mb5 A#mb5 C#m7 "Can't you see " he said, "The Sunday crowds are all my concubines and my enemies" G#m C#m A B E But he too shall see Long Island City eventually A E G#mb5 A#mb5 C#m7 Maria cried out to me, "You can either leave, Or you can stop playing that cowbell with your gun" G#m C#m7 A B E So I say, "Watch out, Long Island City, here I come" A E G#mb5 A#mb5 C#m7 Like Charlamagne in Vietnam.
