Lynn Miles - Sunset Boulevard


CAPO: 5th Fret


INTRO: E minorEm C9C9 B7B7 (4x)

    E minorEm
There's lithium in the sunset
    C9C9
There's rats in the trees
    B7B7
And the temperature is always
E minorEm
Seventy-six degrees

When the mighty fall here
   C9C9
They fall real hard
    B7B7
And the Marlboro Man is watching them
     E minorEm     C9C9 B7B7
On Sunset Boulevard

 E minorEm
I cannot get a breath
 C9C9
I cannot get a break
   B7B7
I can taste the desperation
      E minorEm
'Cause the deal is at stake

For every nip and tuck
      C9C9
There is a vicious little scar
    B7B7
And the Marlboro Man is peering down
     E minorEm     C9C9 B7B7
On Sunset Boulevard


  E minorEm
Be careful how you talk to her
     C9C9
She might be someone you need
     B7B7
And it's such an easy leap
    E minorEm
From sincerity to greed

Now everybody's waiting
    C9C9
Just to see the next card
    B7B7
And the Marlboro Man is smokin'
        E minorEm
Down on Sunset Boulevard

CHORUS:
     C majorC
There's a body on the beach
    G+G
And it doesn't make the news
   C majorC
It's sweeps month here
   B7B7
And nobody wants to lose
  C majorC
He didn't have connections
    G+G
Didn't even own a car
  C majorC
So it ain't worth reporting
      B7B7          E minorEm  C9C9 B7B7
'Cause he's not a superstar, yeah yeah


  E minorEm
You cannot be too rich
  C9C9
You cannot be too thin
       B7B7
Don't bother entering the fray
       E minorEm
Unless you're certain you can win

Take a look around you, baby
   C9C9
Every blade of grass is charred
    B7B7
And the Marlboro Man is laughing
     E minorEm     C9C9 B7B7
On Sunset Boulevard


E minorEm
Grooming is everything
     C9C9
And your car is your purse
   B7B7
Don't give the right of way
   E minorEm
Even if it's a hearse

Forget about that loser
    C9C9
'Cause he ain't going far
      B7B7
Anyway, the Marlboro Man is waiting for you
        E minorEm
Down on Sunset Boulevard


CHORUS:
     C majorC
There's a body on the beach
    G+G
And it doesn't make the news
   C majorC
It's sweeps month here
   B7B7
And nobody wants to lose
  C majorC
He didn't have connections
    G+G
Didn't even own a car
  C majorC
So it ain't worth reporting
      B7B7          E minorEm  C9C9 B7B7
'Cause he's not a superstar, yeah yeah


        E minorEm
The horses are chompin' at their bits
  C9C9
The dam is gonna burst
  B7B7
The ground is gonna rumble
    E minorEm
And the sun is a curse

So don't look too excited
     B7B7
But never let down your guard

'Cause the Marlboro Man is watching you
        E minorEm     C9C9 B7B7
Down on Sunset Boulevard
