Perfected Steps chords by Tops

♫ Intro:

D



♫ Verse :
  D
Starting up

Your Chevrolet to packed crowds

Back in the heyday
 D
Backfires, like the bravado

You did your best to downplay
 D                         G
Your mistakes are sitting centre stage
               Em       A
Just like you made them
              D
The American way
G
All of your mistakes
                    Em
Are sitting centre stage
                     A
Just like you made them

♫ Refrain:
                G               A
With only the seasons keeping time
             D                      G
Who do you wanna be there by your side?
             Em             A
Burning up beacon, casting light
           D                      Em
Over the empty seats night after night
          G
Solo, a dying star

Wants to dance over again
            A           B7
Perfected steps were so big back then

♫ Chorus:
 Em                     A
(Ain't nobody singing along)

Ain't nobody singing along
 Em                           A
(Ain't no one remember that song)
No one remembers that song
Em      A
Holding on to diminishing dawn



♫ Verse :
 D
Laying down

All you do is clown around

In bed with your lady
 D
Pair of die, roll 'em on a rent a night

Throw it all on layaway
 D                          G
Your mistakes are sitting centre stage
           Em           A
Just like you made them
              D
The American way
                G                        Em
All of your mistakes are sitting centre stage
                     A
Just like you made them

♫ Refrain:
                G               A
With only the seasons keeping time
             D                      G
Who do you wanna be there by your side?
            Em               A
Burning up beacon, casting light
          D                        Em
Over the empty seats night after night
          G
Solo, a dying star wants to dance over again
            A            B7
Perfected steps were so big back then

♫ Chorus:
 Em                     A

Ain't nobody singing along
 Em                           A

Holding on to diminishing dawn

Solo, a dying star wants to dance over again
            A           B7
Perfected steps were so big back then

♫ Chorus:
 Em                     A
(Ain't nobody singing along)

No one remembers that song
  Em                          A
(Ain't no one remember that song)
                   Em       A
Barely holding on (holding on) to diminishing dawn

        D
Rollercoaster, coming down
 Em
Wonderland is hitting the ground
       D
Letter Z, pocket size
        Em
You're winning but you don't realise
       G            A
You arrive at the fight
        Em
Want a piece of me?
                         D
Come get your slice of life

There she is, paradise
           Em
You could stay a while but it wouldn't suffice
           D
Yeah you know, she's real nice
    m
By now you've been there too many times
       G            A
You arrive at the fight
        Em
Want a piece of me?
      A
In spite of yourself
           G            A
Feel the pressure, but why?
      Em
Wanna be something?

Come get your slice of life

  The more you want, the more you miss, the more you wish that you had it
G                               A                             Em       A
  But when it all falls down around you, will you see how it happened?

Feel the pressure, but why?

Em  A
      Come get your slice of life
