E minorEm            A augmentedA
When are you going to come down?
D MajorD           G+G
When are you going to land?
C majorC              A augmentedA
I should have stayed on the farm,
 A augmentedA       D MajorD
I should have listened to my old man.
  E minorEm            A augmentedA
You know you can't hold me forever,
  D MajorD       G+G
I didn't sign up with you.
 C majorC             A augmentedA
I'm not a present for your friends to open,
 D MajorD
This boy's too young to be singing

The blu-u-ues.

Chorus:
D MajorD            F#F#
So goodbye yellow brick road,
     G+G        D MajorD
Where the dogs of society howl.
 BB             E minorEm
You can't plant me in your penthouse,
A augmentedA           D MajorD
I'm going back to my plough.
B minorBm            F#F#
Back to the howling old owl in the woods,
G+G            Bb majorBb
Hunting the horny back toad.

Oh I've finally decided my future lies
 G+G           G minorGm C majorC
Beyond the yellow brick road

Verse 2:

 E minorEm            A augmentedA
What do you think you'll do then?
 D MajorD            G+G
I bet that'll shoot down your plane.
 C majorC             A augmentedA
It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
D MajorD
To set you on your feet again

 E minor 7Em7            A augmentedA
Maybe you'll get a replacement,
D MajorD             G+G
There's plenty like me to be found.
C majorC             A augmentedA
Mongrels, who ain't got a penny,
G+G           A augmentedA        G minorGm C majorC
Sniffing for tid-bits like you on the ground

 FF     Bb majorBb
Aah aah aah aah
G minorGm    A augmentedA
aah aah aah
D MajorD
