Lush Life Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G][Em][A][Eb][C][Gdim][Eb][G]
[C]I used to visit [Fm]all the very [C]gay places
Those come- what- may places
Where [G]one relaxes on the axis
[Fm]of the wheel of [Gm]life[G]
[Ebaug]To get the f[A]eel of life[G]
From jazz and [A]cock[Em]tails[E]

[Verse 2]
[Gaug][G]
The girls I knew had sad and sullen
[C]gray faces
With distingue [G]traces[C]
That used to be [G]there
You could see where
[Eb]they'd been washed [Gdim]away[G]
[Eb]By too m[A]any through the da[G]y
Twelve o'clock [Em]tales
[Ebaug][G]

[Verse 3]
[Em]Then you came along
with your siren song
[Em]To tempt me to [F#dim]madness
[Am]I th[Baug]ought for [Em]awhile
that your poignant smile
Was tinged [Em]with the [Ebaug]sad ness
[G]Of [F]a gre[Dm]at love for[G] me[Bb]
[Eaug][C][Asus4][A]
Ah [Dm]yes, I was wrong
[Gm]Again, I [Gsus4]was wrong
[G]

[Verse 4]
[C]
[G]Life is lonely [Gaug]again[C]
[Gaug]And only last ye[G]ar[C]
[D]Everything [B]seemed [Bb]so s[Eb]ure[D]
[C]Now life [G]is awful [C]again
[G]A trough ful[C]l of hearts could only be
[B]a b[E]ore[Ebaug][D][G]
A [Dm]week in Paris[Bbaug][D]

[Verse 5]
[G]
could ease [D]the bite [Ebm]of it[Ab][Db]
All I [Dbm]care i[Gbsus4]s to smile[Gb][Cb]
[Bb]in spite of it[G][C]
[G]I'll forget [Gaug]you, I

[Verse 6]
[C]will
[G]While yet you[C] are still
Burning in[Cb]side [Bb]my brai[Asus4]n[A]
[Dm]Romance is mush[Fm]
[Eaug]Stifling [E]tho[Eaug]se who strive
[E]So [Em]I'll [G]li[C]ve a lush life[Eb][Fsus4]
[F]in [Bb]some small di ve[Am][A]
[Dm]And there I'll be,[Fm]
[Eaug]while I [E]rot with [Eaug]the rest[Em]
[G]Of tho[Eb]se who[D]se [Gb]lives are lo[C]nely[Gaug][Ebaug]
[Gaug]too
[C]

[Outro 1]
