Lost Johnny
===========
G+G A augmentedA
You only get a single chance
G+G A augmentedA
The rules are very plain
G+G A augmentedA
The truth is well concealed inside
G+G A augmentedA
the details of the game
D MajorD E MajorE
You can see it coming
D MajorD E MajorE
You can hear it from afar
D MajorD E MajorE
It's pale and it flickers
C majorC D MajorD G-A
Like a faded movie sta-ar
D MajorD E MajorE
And up there in the castle
D MajorD E MajorE
they're trying to make us scream
D MajorD E MajorE
by sticking thumb tacks in her flesh
C majorC D MajorD G-A
and cancelling the dre-am
D MajorD E MajorE
Can you find the Valium?
D MajorD E MajorE
Can you bring it soon?
C majorC D MajorD G-A
Lost Johnny's out there baying at the Mo-on
G+G A augmentedA
The time has come for you to choose
G+G A augmentedA
and you'd better get it right
G+G A augmentedA
Berlin girls with sharp white teeth
G+G A augmentedA
are waiting in the night
D MajorD E MajorE
But you ought to really get some
D MajorD E MajorE
It surely can't be hard
D MajorD E MajorE
There's always trouble waiting
C majorC D MajorD G-A
when you leave your own back ya-ard
D MajorD E MajorE
And underneath the city
D MajorD E MajorE
the alligators sing
D MajorD E MajorE
about how the puppets cannot dance
C majorC D MajorD G-A
since someone cut their stri-ings
D MajorD E MajorE
Run and get the morphine
D MajorD E MajorE
for God's sake make it brief
C majorC D MajorD G-A
Lost Johnny's out there looking for relief
G+G A augmentedA
Now he sounds and looks so evil
G+G A augmentedA
and you know he really tries
G+G A augmentedA
but every time he makes a play
G+G A augmentedA
that vital number dies
D MajorD E MajorE
And Sally buys her underwear
D MajorD E MajorE
from a store where no-one goes
D MajorD E MajorE
She makes it big in photographs
C majorC D MajorD G-A
on the strength of what she sho-ows
D MajorD E MajorE
And here inside the waiting room
D MajorD E MajorE
the radio still screams
D MajorD E MajorE
And we're all taking Tuenol
C majorC D MajorD G-A
to murder our young dre-ams
D MajorD E MajorE
Run and fetch your credit card
D MajorD E MajorE
Try to make it quick
C majorC D MajorD G-A
Lost Johnny's out there trying to turn a tri-ick
