C Em Little wendy cocaine stumbles up the hill to pain F Nothing stops the go-to girl, G# C Am nothing takes the place of taking aim C Em Little wendy's out there shaking hips and cuckoo eyes F Crazy drives that dizzy crowd G# C Am Moonlight strokes the highlights in her hair Chorus: F She sells and moves and finds my hand A# F And pulls me down and close so I can hardly stand F As I lay like dead for her, A# F I'm fed into my head I'm led, oh, I am sand B A# I'm crawling from the window, crawling down the wall F I'm happy screaming, yes, I am B I'm jumping on her daisy chain A# F I'm speeding through the dancehall like a rocket man Now I wish today that yesterday was just tomorrow and I could squeeze her grabby hand Knowing that I never paid her for a gram Chorus: She's a drunken doxy off her trolly Sent before her time into this poxy world She's not fit for anything but dealing it While heaven sings, I have this girl She's got me eating rice and beans I have no shape nor color, I'm god's lonely man I don't want to die but I don't want to live I'm speeding like a rocket man F B A# Like a rocket man F A# Like a rocket man F A# F Like a rocket man You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm A# C Em F G# B Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
