"Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" - Elton John
Key of F

Intro -
          
        

Verse 1 - 
                     
When are you gonna come down? 
                   
When are you going to land? 
                           
I should have stayed on the farm 
               
I should have listened to my old man 
                          
You know you can't hold me forever 
                  
I didn't sign up with you 
                           
I'm not a present for your friends to open 
                                                        
This boy's too young to be singing the blu - es    Ahhhhhh    Ahhhhhhh


Chorus -
                        
So goodbye yellow brick road 
                        
Where the dogs of society howl 
                          
You can't plant me in your penthouse 
                          
I'm going back to my plough 
                  
Back to the howling old owl in the woods 
                      
Hunting the horny back toad 
                                   
Oh, I've finally decided my future lies 
                                              
Beyond the yellow brick ro - - -ad    Ahhhhhhh     Ahhhhhhh 

Verse 2 (Same chords as verse 1) -
What do you think you'll do then? 
I bet they'll shoot down your plane 
It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics 
To set you on your feet again 
Maybe you'll get a replacement 
There's plenty like me to be found 
Mongrels, who ain't got a penny 
Sniffing for tid-bits like you on the ground
