Elton John

Cm Fm7
The sun is up and the shades are all pulled down
Bb Bdim Cm
I'm more paranoid with every little sound
Cm Fm7
Like the leaf blower blowing the leaves around
G/B Gaug Cm
And a siren wailing on the other side of town

Cm Ab
Oh the TVs on and the colors really hurt my head
Bb Bdim Cm
If I could think straight I'd wish I was dead
Cm Fm7
Or curled up naked in my lover's bed
G/B Bdim Cm
Instead I'm hanging over Hell suspended by a single thread

^chorus:
Fm G/B
And I don't recall who said it at this time
Fm7 Bb Ab Bb
That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind
Fm7 Bb
I built it up and the wolf he came around
Fm7 Bb Bdim
He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed,
Cm Fm7 Bdim Cm
he huffed and puffed, and the house fell down

(Repeat C-blues scale run)

Cm Fm7
With a rolled up note I'm hovering on that line
Bb G/B Cm
Three days on a diet of cocaine and wine
Cm Fm7
And a little weed just to level me sometime
G Cm
I put the clock in the drawer 'cause I've cancelled out the time

^{repeat chorus}
Cm
So don't knock on my door, don't try to call
I'm holed up in this room talking to the wall
When you're high as this you think you know it all
G
When you're this deep in there's no place else to fall

(Solo C blues riff ń Starts out G-Eb-C-G-Eb, C-F-Eb F-Eb-C-F-Eb C-Eb-F-Gb-F-Eb-C, etc)

^{repeat chorus}

Fm7 Bb
And still that saying gets inside my mind
Fm7 Bb Ab Bb
That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind
Fm7 Bb
I built it up and the wolf he came around
Fm7 Bb Bdim
He huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed, he huffed and puffed,
Cm Fm7 Bdim Cm
he huffed and puffed, and the house fell down
