Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[E5]
[C#5][G5][E5][G5][E5]
[C#5]
[G5][E5]

[Verse 1]
Gotta [E5]tell you a story
On a cold winter's night
You'll be sailing for glory
Before you [D5]know what [C#5]is rig[G5]ht[E5]

[Verse 2]
So [E5]come over here now
I got a vision for you
It's my personal snake oil
It's just [C#5]something I [G5]do[C#m]

[Verse 3]
I'm [C#m]the jester with no tears
And I'm playing on your fears
I'm a trickster smiling under[C#5]neath this
[C#m]mask of love and death
The eternal lie I've told
About the pyramids of gold
I've got you hooked at [C#5]every turn,
your [C#m]money's left to [E5]burn

[Interlude 1]
[C#5][C#m][G5][E5]
[G5]
[Em]
(Hahahaha) [E5]You'll be

[Verse 4]
wanting a contract, ha
You'll be waiting a while
I'd like to give you my contact
But that isn't [C#m]my sty[G5]le[E5]

[Verse 5]
Well you [E5]only get one chance
And it's too good to miss
[G5]If I did[E5]n't lie to you
Then I wouldn't ex[G5]ist
[C#5]

[Verse 6]
[C#m]Greed, lust and angry pride
It's the same old, same old ride
The smoke and mirrors vis[C#5]ions
that you [C#m]see are just like me
I'm a clever banker's [C#5]face
[C#m]With just a letter out of place
I know someone just like you knows
[C#5]someone [C#m]just like m[C#5]e[G5]

[Verse 7]
El Dor[Bb5]ado, c[Bbm]ome and play[F]
El [C5]Dorado, step [D#]this way
Take a [Bbm]tick et f[Bb5]or the[C5] rid[G5]e
El Dor[Bb5]ado st[Bbm]reets of gold[F]
See my [C5]ship is over[D#]sold
You got [Bb5]one last chance to[C5] try

[Interlude 2]

[C#5][C#m][G5][E5][Em][G5]
[Em]So

[Verse 8]
[E5]gone is the glory
And gone is the gold
Well if you knew the story
How come it has to [C#m]be tol[C#5]d[E5]

[Verse 9]
Well you [E5]can say I'm a devil
And I wouldn't say no
But out here on the dark side
Hey, [C#m]on with the[E5] show[G5][C#5][C#m]

[Verse 10]
So [C#m]now my tale is told
Big and bad and twice as bold
This ship of fools is sinking as
the cracks begin to grow
There is no easy way
For an honest man today
Which is something you should
think of as my lifeboat sails [G5]away

[Verse 11]
El Dor[Bbm]ado, come and[F] play
El [C5]Dorado, step [D#]this way
Take a [Bbm]tick et for t[C5]he ride[G5]
El Dor[Bbm]ado streets of go[F]ld
See my [C5]ship is over[D#]sold
You got [Bbm]one last ch[Bb5]ance to try
[C5][G5]

[Verse 12]
El Dor[Bb5]ado, c[Bbm]ome and play[F]
El [C]Dor[C5]ado, step [D#]this way
Take a [Bbm]tick et f[Bb5]or the rid[C5]e[G5]
El Dor[Bb5]ado st[Bbm]reets of gold[F]
See my [C]ship [C5]is oversold[D#]
You got [Bbm]one last chance to[C5] try
