[Verse 1]
[Em]My n[Am]ew[Em][Am][Em]
purple [Am]shoes
Been [Em]amazin' the people next [G]door
And my rock and roll [C]45s
Been en[Cm]raging the folks on my [D]lower floor
[Em]I got away with the gi[Am]rls on my block
Try my be[Em]st, be a real i[Am]ndividual
[Em]And when we go down [G]to Smokey's Head Rock,
they line [C]up like it's [Cm]some kind of ritu[D]al
[Em]Ooh, give me a good guit[Am]ar,
and you can [Em]say that my
hair's a [Am]disgrace
[Em]Oh, just find me an open car
[G]I'll make the spe[C]ed of light out[D#] of this pla[D]ce[Em]
[G][G#m][B][Bm][B][G#m][B][Bm][B][G#m][B]
[D#]
[Em]Mmm, I like the good thing[Am]s in life
But [Em]most of the best things
ain't [Am]free
It's the [Em]same situation,
just [G]cuts like a knife
When you're [C]young, and you're [Cm]poor,
and you're [D]crazy
[Em]Ooh, give me a good guit[Am]ar
And you can [Em]say that my
hair's a disgrace
[Am]Oh, [Em]just buy me an open [G]car
I'll make [C]the speed of light [D#]out of this p[D]lace
[G][C][Cm][Dm][C][F][C][Cm][Csus4][C][Am]
Dis[B]lo [C]cate [B]your spine if [C]you [B]don't sign
He [C]says, [B]I'll hav[Am]e you[B] seen in double
[Em]Mesmerize you when[D]
he's tongue -tied
[Em]Simply with those [D]eyes
Syn[Em]chronize your [D]minds and see
The [Am]beast within your [B]eyes
Don't look back[Em], don[B]'t look back
It's a rip -off
[Am]And you're dead,[D] baby,
[G]and you're mad[C][G][C][Am]
He'll eat your heart out,
and then a kick in the head
He's taking an arm and taking
a [C]leg[C#dim][D][Em]
Baby, you've been [Am]had[B]
Intoxic[C]ate [B]your brain with what I'm saying
If [C]not, [B]you'll lie[Am] kne[B]e -deep
in [Baug]trouble[B]
[Em]Prostitute your [D]self -esteem
Cas[Em]trate your human [D]pride
[Em]Sacrifice your leisure d[D]ays,
let me [Am]squeeze you till you're [B]dry
Don't [Em]look back, don't look [B]back
It's a rip [G]-off[C][G][B][G][C][G]
[Em][G][Am][B][Em][Am][B][Em][Am]
[A][B][Em][C][C#dim][D][C][C#dim][A][D][C][C#dim][D][Em]
[Am]
[B]Rock my fingers to my bones
I scream with pain
I [Am]still [B]make no impression
[Em]Seduce you with this
[D]money -make machine
[Em]Cross -collateralize
[D]Reduce money
Re[Em]duce you to a mu[D]sic -fake machine
[Em]Then the last good[D]bye
An[Am]d you're dea[D]d, baby
[G]And you're [C]mad[G][Am]
He'll eat your heart out,
and there's a kick in the head
He's taking out a leg, taking a leg
[C]I m[C#dim]issed the[D] bre[Em]ak
Baby, [Am]you've been [Dm]had[Am][Dm][Am]
[G]I a[C]m forever searchi[B]ng high a[G]nd l[Am]ow,
[G]but [C]why[Am] does everybody
tell me [Dm]no?
Neptune of [G]the seas,
an[C]swer for [Dm]me pl[G]ease
Cause the [C]lily [Dm]of the vall[G]ey
doesn't [Am]know[Dm][Am][Dm]
I lie in [C#dim]wait with open eyes[Dm]
I carry [A]on [C]through stormy [F]skies
I follow every [C]course,
my [Csus4]kingdom for a[C] horse
My [F]age, [C]time, [Dm]I gr[C]ow old[G]
Ser[C]pent [Dm]of t[G]he Nile, l[C]ead me[Dm] for a while
[G]And cas[C]t me fro[Dm]m you[G]r spell,

Wars will never [G]cease
Is the [C]time [Dm]enough [G]for peace?
Cause the [C]lily [Dm]of the va[G]lley
doesn't [Am]bloom[G]
You
