Verse 1:
                    A
Yeah, why don't you drive me
                            E
Down that rough and twisted road?
              A
Why don't you guide me?
                                 E
'Cause I don't know which way to go
           A
Promise to take me
                         E
Yeah, to where the water glows
                             A
Somewhere, somewhere down to Puerto Rico
                             E
Where the tide just ebbs and flows
 
 
Chorus:
Bm
  Flash me all your jewelry
G
 Poetry and friends
Bm
  Promise me a dance like Nijinsky
G                 A                      E
Nothing, nothing, nothing but a false pretense

Verse 2:
              A
Yeah, all you feed me
                         E
Was just rancid ricе and bones
                A
All I drank was muddy water
               E
As lonely as a saxophonе
              A
Why don't you take me
                 E
To where I wanna go?
   A
To Natchez, Mississippi
           E
Sicily and Rome
 
 
Chorus:
Bm
  You just took me to a flyblown town
G
 In the back of nowhere
Bm
  Smell was acrid and toxic
G
 Couldn't breathe the air
Bm
  The only club was called Conspiracy
G
 They didn't like me much
Bm
  What they wanted was tyranny
    G               A                E
And all that crazy, crazy, fucked up stuff
 
 
[Instrumental]
E
 
 
Verse 3:

Why don't you drive me?
 
Take me where you wanna go
                    E
Yeah, why don't you take me
 
Down this rough and twisted road?
                   E
Yes, why don't you teach me
 
Teach me all those foreign tongues?
                    E
Yeah, why don't you take me?
 
'Cause I'm deaf and blind and dumb

Take me where I wanna go

Flickering in my cave

        A                                       D
Did you hear bad things about me? That would be a crying shame
       A                         D
If you look into my eyes, if you peer into my face
        A                                    D
Can you read the good and see the bad? Don't have to be afraid

C                    D
Life's too short for just making money
F                        Am
Show me how to spend it, honey
C                   D                       Am
Life's too short to waste it living on your own
C                 D
Life's too short, nothing lasts forever
F                Am
Can't be bought, help me bring you pleasure

Verse 2:
A                             D
I could show you places that you have never seen
    A                             D
And fill your mind with images of tantalising dreams
    A                            D
And caves full of crystals, shot through with pink and green
    A                                    D
And No Man's Land in the darkest days of 1916
 
 
Chorus:
A                      D          C
Call me Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm
Am                     D          G
Call me Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm, Mr. Charm
A                            D            C
I would never, never, never, never do you harm
      Am
Don't have to be afraid, don't have to be alarmed
 
 
Post-Chorus:
C                    D
Life's too short for just making money
F              Am
Ain't no fool, ain't nobody's monkey
C                   D                       Am
Life's too short to waste it living on your own
C                 D
Life's too short, nothing lasts forever

When I was oh-so-young, I used to want to go to Mars
    Am
And burn the rubber on the road
                    D
And drive around in fancy cars
     A
When who would take you into space?
                     D
Who would you really trust?
      Am                        C
Is it Boeing, is it NASA, is it mad mogul Mr. Musk?
A                                      D
Now I'm older, I would like to ask you if tonight
         Am                           D
We could stay at home, you see, I'm really quite polite
        A                                                      D
I would make you cocktails, pour you wine, you're obviously so erudite
   Am
Do anagrams spew epigrams?
 
I don't give a damn, Madame
 
 
Pre-Chorus:
C                    D
Life's too short for just making money

Show me how to spend it with you, honey

Life's too short, nothing lasts forever

Can't be bought, help me bring you pleasure
C                   D                    Am
Life's too short to waste it living all alone

A sandwich bar at the end of the world at night

Driving down an alley in a rundown part of Hollywood
D                                     A
Saw her neon light up the side of the sign
D                                   A
Flew through, I asked her what's my future
      D                                    A
Well, she threw up and then broke down and cried
 
Tears in her eyes
 
 
Pre-Chorus:
G                        D           A
 But I kept moving on to silver head
   G                                      D A
To play guitar with a brand-new friend of mine
 
Yeah!

Verse 1:
                     Dm
Gold dust through my fingers
                 G
Watched it pour away
                 Dm
Money, blood and treasure
                              G
Where it's gone, I just can't say
                Dm
Snapshots in my shoebox
                  G
Friends I can't recall
               Dm
Pollocks and Picassos, curling up

And falling off my kitchen wall, yeah

                      G
What if they took the cars?
                       Dm
And all the banks went busted
                     G
I'd have to sell off fifty old, fancy guitars
                 Dm
We could move to Naples
            G
Living in a run-down trailer park
                 Dm
Would we be like boxers facing up and shaping up and going
G
Eyeball to eyeball to eyeball?

Love can be confusion

And nothing goes your way
               Dm
At least I can amuse you
                 G
Like lovers in a play
                   Dm
And love is always madness
                G
Graffiti on the wall
                     Dm
Please don't make me crawl
                     G
Please don't make me crawl, crawl, crawl, crawl, crawl

I never wanna lose you

I need a place to calm me down, but this town is so noisy
  Em                        Bm
I need to drown my troubles somewhere, you're my love
           Em                          Bm
You're the coat I can't take off, I'm aware of your affairs
         Em                         Bm
And your perfume I can't shake off, I can never break off
    Em                               Bm
The memory that's following me like a shadow
    Em                             Bm
I'm always dreamin' of your skin so soft
       Em                            Bm
And ya hit me in the chest with your arrow, in my marrow
Em                          Bm
  You're painted on my body all silver and gold
Em                             Bm
  And purple and pink and your brain stone cold
Em                    Bm
  This never gets old
 
 
Chorus:

Verse 2:
                  Em                              Bm
Listen, I wake up sick and tired of all these autocrats
                         Em                       Bm
You know they seem to be breeding like a swarm of dirty rats
           Em                             Bm
With their missiles on parade and they're wreathed in gold brocade
    Em                               Bm
Opposition plays charades, they must always be obeyed
                   Em
You know I'm gonna wait 'til the panic passes
Bm                                    Em
Wait till you see the whites of their asses
                          Bm
Me and you were separated like Korea
        Em                       Bm
There's so many knots we can't undo, we can't untie
         Em                           Bm
You're always trying to give me bad reviews

You were born on my doorstep, that's no coincidence
             Em                           Bm
It all makes perfect sense, you know it's true
                             Em
'Cause I'm covered in you, upset my equilibrium
        Bm
Make me take way too much lithium
   Em                      Bm
So goodbye, lover, wish me luck
          Em                           Bm
I'm gonna vanish down the highway in my truck
         Bm                        Em
'Cause I couldn't really give a monkey's

  What can I do?
           G                A
Covered in you, bent out of skew
