Elton John

Tom: F

(intro) F C/E  Dm C  Bb C F

Gm                      C      F                    Bb
When are you gonna come down, when are you going to land,
    Eb                        C                  F
I should have stayed on the farm, should have  listened to my old man.
      Gm                       C        F                   Bb
You know you can't hold me forever, I didn't sign up with you,
     Eb                       C
I'm not a present for your friends to open,

      F                                 Bbm  Eb    Ab  C#    Bbm   C7
this boy's too young to be singing the blu..es, a.....h,  a.....h.
    F                    A            Bb               F
So goodbye yellow brick road where the dogs of society howl,
     D7                     Gm              C                 F
you can't plant me in your penthouse, I'm going back to my plough.
 Dm                      A                Bb                       C#
Back to the howling old owl in the woods, hunting the horny black toad.
 Eb       F         C/E    Dm        C
Oh I've finally decided my future lies
   Bb        C             Bbm  Eb    Ab   C#  Bbm   C7   F
beyond the yellow brick ro...ad,  a.....h, a.....h.

   Gm                      C      F                    Bb
What do you think you'll do then? I bet that`ll shoot down your plane,
       Eb                        C                  F
it'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics to set you on your feet again.
  Gm                      C      F                    Bb
Maybe you'll get a replacement, there's plenty like me to be found,
 Eb            C
mongrels who ain't got a penny,
F                                   Bbm  Eb  Ab   C#  Bbm    C7
sniffing for titbits like you on the ground, a.....h, a.....h.
