           E                          E/F#
Well they broke your toys this morning, Henry

             E                  E/F#
Rode your Ford right into dust

 E                       E/F#                                E   E/F#
Surrounded you with strangers who you could not trust

 E
And then they had the gall


F#m  B  E  E/C#  E

        F#m                       B              E
To write your name up on the girl's room wall

        C#m      B       C#m        B      C#m           B              C#m     B
And send you out to Maria who spoke of babies and all

                                Asus
And she wanted to shoot your joy

                 Bsus
Well it's a hard world when you're the new kid in town


                     (open E) E/F# E E/F# E
Ain't it, Henry Boy?



 E/F#                                    E                E/F#
Well now the North side is for diamond studded women

 E                          E/F#
Subtly selling their wares

 E                                 E/F#             E   E/F#       E    E/F#
And the West side is for debutantes and would be millionaires

 E                       E/F#                E      E/F#          E             E/F#
The East side is for lost boys who know their moves too well

 E                                 E/F#
The South side that's for gamblers, Henry

 E        E/F#               E        E/F#
The train stops once for hell

 Asus
It's a hard world when you're forced to live out on Broadway

Bsus                              (open E)  E/F#  E  E/F#
But Henry I think you're gonna like it well

             G#m                                         A
And now the constellation she points to Gate Eleven

                                        C#m     B   C#m
Man that's where you got your connections

          G#m                                           A
Whoa let me take a look inside my magic book I don't think

                           C#m     B   C#m
You're beyond my inventions

    G#m                                           A
Whoa let me take a look inside my magic book

                                      C#m     B   C#m
I don't think you're beyond my inventions

          G#m
These doctor's appendages I'm giving you for wings

                  F#m                  A
I'm sure they'll meet the occasion

      C#m      B       C#m        B      C#m           B    C#m         B
I'm gonna mix you some magic, you'll be spittin' sparks

                            E
And ready for the invasion



 F#m              B            E
'Cause now the Milky Way's a trip for dipper

                            E/F#      E
Who saw you coming a mile away

 E/F#
In the amusement park you'll get clipped by rippers

                        E
Hiding behind candy canes

 E/F#                                          E           E/F#         E          E/F#
In the alley you're gonna get ripped by strippers all who know your name

 E                      E/F#                              E
In the stalls stand out the soldier-boy kissers

 E/F#                         E
On leave for just a day


     Asus
And Henry he can't take it, he's gonna be a submariner

 Bsus
Riding underground for the Pope

   Asus
Stands on the corner Broadway and 42nd and screams "Up 'scope"


E/F#  E  E/F#  E
