Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I[A][D][A]
[D][A][G][D]
[A]survived the dinner
[G]Then the air went [D]thinner
I retired to [A]the briars by the pool,
it gets so loud

[Verse 2]
If I die [A]this instant
[G]Taken from a dis[D]tance
They would probably list it down
[A]Among other things 'round [Em]town

[Verse 3]
Got my [A]rings [D]around me
I got baby to [A]pound me
I see stars and go weak
My baby cries and lays me down
In the [Em]skies

[Verse 4]
[A]over black [D]Venice
I see eye[A]s of a white menace
The surprise of the week
Is that I never heard the sound

[Verse 5]
All the L.A. [A]women
[G]Fall asleep while swi[D]mming
I got paid to fish [A]'em out
And then one day I lost the job

[Verse 6]
And I cried [A]a little
[G]I got fried a l[D]ittle
Then she laid her [F#m]eyes on m[A]ine
And she said, "Babe, you're better off"
[Em]I got my

[Verse 7]
rings [D]around me
I got baby to [A]pound me
I see stars and go weak
My baby cries and lays me down
[Em]In the skies

[Verse 8]
[A]over [D]black Venice
I see eyes of a white [A]menace
The surprise of the week
Is that I never heard [Am]the sound
Tun[Em]nel vis

[Verse 9]
[G]ion [D]lights my [A]way[Am]
Leave my [G]little [D]life [A]today

[Verse 10]
[A]
As the free-fall advances
advances
I'm the mor[G]on who dances
[D]Ah[A]
I was teething on roses
I was in [G]guns and noses
[D]Ah[A]

[Verse 11]
[A]Under the with[Em]ering white
skies [D]of humili[A]ation
Under the with[Em]ering white skies [A]of
[D]humiliati[A]on

[Interlude 1]

[Verse 12]
Tunnel [G]vision [D]lights my [A]way[Am]
Leave my [G]little [D]life [A]today

[Interlude 2]

[D]s my way[A][Am]
