Verse:
C Once upon a time you Dm7 dressed so fine
You Em threw the bums a dime F in your prime
G didn’t you?
C People’d call, say, Dm7 "Beware doll,
you’re Em bound to fall" You thought F they were all
a G kiddin’ you
Verse:
F You used to G …laugh about
F Everybody that was G …hangin’ out
F Now you Em don’t Dm7 talk so loud C
F Now you Em don’t Dm7 seem so proud C
About Dm7 having to be scrounging F for your next G meal

Verse:
Aww, You’ve C gone to the Dm7 finest school all right Em
But you F know you only used to get G juiced in it
No C body has ever taught you
Dm7 how to live out on the Em street
And now you’re F gonna have to get G used to it
Verse:
F You said you’d never G compromise
F With the mystery tramp, but now you G realize
F He’s not Em selling any Dm7 alibis C
F As you stare into the Em vacuum Dm7 of his eyes C
And Dm7 say do you want to F make a G deal?

Verse:
Aww, You C never turned a Dm7 round to see the frowns
On the jugglers and the F clowns when they all did
G tricks for you
You C never understood that it Dm7 ain’t no good
You Em shouldn’t let other F people get your G kicks for you
Verse:
F You used to ride on the chrome horse with your G diplomat
F Who carried on his shoulder a G Siamese cat
F Ain’t it hard Em when you dis Dm7 cover that C
F He really Em wasn’t Dm7 where it’s at C
After Dm7 he took from you everything F he could G steal

Verse:
Aww C Princess on the Dm7 steeple and all the Em pretty people
They’re all F drinkin’, thinkin’ that they G got it made
C Exchanging all Dm7 precious gifts
But you’d better F take your diamond ring,
G you’d better pawn it babe
Verse:
F You used to be G so amused
F At Napoleon in rags G and the language that he used
F Go to him now, he Em calls you, you Dm7 can’t refuse C
F When you ain’t got Em nothing, you got Dm7 nothing to lose C
You’re Dm7 invisible now, you got no F secrets to G conceal.
