Talking Jukebox Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][C]
[Em][C]

[Verse 1]
[Em]I'm just
a jukebox standing in a joint
[C]I'm all lit up with pretty colored lights
I'm [Em]a bum, I'm a beggar
for nickels and dimes
[C]But I'm your millionaire

[Interlude 1]
a thousand times
[Em][C]

[Verse 2]
[Em]I watch you come in here,
come through the door
[C]I watch you take a drink or three or four
Then I [Em]wink at you with my electric eyes
[C]Carry you away to Paradise

[Verse 3]
I'm a [G]two, I'm a four,
I'm a 12 bar beater
[C]I'm partly honest,
I'm partly a cheater
There's a mil[G]lion human
skulls in here fighting a war
[C]Now let me tell you what they're
fight[Am]ing for
[Em][C]

[Verse 4]
To [Em]look at these old, steel lights and holes
[C]You might not think I got a soul
But [Em]the workers that worked
hard to bring me to life
[C]Want me to tell the secrets of your life

[Verse 5]
I'm a [G]two, I'm a four,
I'm a 12 bar beater
[C]I'm partly honest,
I'm partly a cheater
There's a mil[G]lion human
skulls in here fighting a war
[C]Now let me tell you what
they're fight[Am]ing for
[Em][C]

[Verse 6]
I got a [Em]waxy voice and a mechanical brain
[C]Look in these eyes. Am I insane?
[Em]I haven't found my real voice yet
But [C]your stories and your history,
I'll never [Em]forget

[Verse 7]
And I mean your [Em]personal history
'Cause [C]I know all about you
I know every step you ever [Em]took
Every book you never read
Every hand you ever held
[C]Every kiss you ever stole
Every job you ever lost
[Em]Every single,
solitary penny that you've cheated
Who [C]out of
Who'd have ever believed that
one of these days or nights
[Em]You'd put a nickel in me and hear every
single truth [C]about yourself?

[Verse 8]
'Cause I'm a [G]two, I'm a four,
I'm a 12 bar beater
[C]I'm partly honest,
I'm partly a cheater
There's a [G]million human skulls
in here fighting a war
[C]Now let me tell you what
we're fight[Am]ing for

[Verse 9]
I'm a [G]four, I'm a six,
I'm a eight bar hitter
[C]Feed me the nickels,
I ain't no quitter
There's [G]a million human
skulls in here fighting a war
[C]Now let me tell you what
they're fight[Am]ing f[Em]or

[Verse 10]
For [Em]a better what? Better pe[C]ople?
House, car, ship, plane, business?
[Em]Maybe so
