Amaj7            E+
Floozies at The Rainbow
Amaj7           E+
Superstars that won't get far
Amaj7           E+
Who is who that we know?
Amaj7          E+
Coochie Coo is at the bar

G#maj7
Do you really love? Do you love, do you love?
        Dm
Do you want to make the call?
 C
We all long, we all fall

Shoelace for the sirens
Groupies and the tyrants ply

Do you really want? Do you want, do you want?
Do you want to have it all?
We all long, we all fall

Chorus:
A#      F Dm
I'm so tired
A#          F              Dm
Well I get by, but I could use a few
A#      F             Dm             C  E7
I'm so tired that I slept along the way

Suitcase of perception
Rhinestones and redemption cries

Do you really love? Do you love, do you love?
Do you want to make the call?
We all long, we all fall

Chorus:
A#      F Dm
I'm so tired
A#             F            Dm
The sun beats down upon my lonely face
A#      F            Dm              A
I'm so tired that I slept along the way

Do you really love? Do you love, do you chase?
Do you take this town today?
We all long, we all face

Chorus:
A#      F Dm
I'm so tired
A#          F              Dm
Well I get by, but I could use a few
A#      F            Dm
I'm so tired that I slept along the way

A#             F            Dm
The sun beats down upon my lonely face (yea)
A#         F                  Dm
A perfect world with all its perfect places
A#      F              Dm
I could use a few for just in cases

A#      F            Dm              C
I'm so tired that I slept along the way
