[Intro - Capo 3 but don't for live] G Em G Em Am F G Em
[Verse] G Em A police car and a screaming siren, G Em Pneumatic drill and ripped up concrete, G Em A baby wailing, stray dog howling, G Em The screech of brakes and a lamp light blinking,
[Chorus] Am F That's entertainment, Am F That's entertainment,
[Instrumental] G Em G Em
[Verse] G Em A smash of glass and a rumble of boots, G Em An electric train and a ripped up phone booth, G Em Paint splattered walls and the cry of a tomcat, G Em Lights going out and a kick in the balls, I say
[Chorus] Am F That's entertainment, Am F G That's entertainment - Ahh! Em G Em La la la la la la...
[Verse] G Em Days of speed and slow time Mondays, G Em Pissing down with rain on a boring Wednesday, G Em Watching the news, not eating your tea, G Em A freezing cold flat and damp on the walls, I say
[Chorus] Am F That's entertainment, Am F G That's entertainment - Ahh! Em G Em La la la la la la...
[Verse] G Em Waking up at 6am on a cool warm morning, G Em Opening the windows and breathing in petrol, G Em An amateur band rehearsing in a nearby yard, G Em Watching the telly and thinking 'bout your holidays,
[Chorus] Am F That's entertainment, Am F G That's entertainment - Ahh! Em G Em La la la la la la...
[Verse] G Em Waking up from a bad dream and smoking cigarrettes, G Em Cuddling a warm girl and smelling stale perfume, G Em A hot summer's day and sticky black tarmac, G Em Feeding ducks in the park and wishing you were far away,
[Chorus] Am F That's entertainment, Am F G That's entertainment - Ahh! Em G Em La la la la la la...
[Verse] G Em Two lovers kissing amongst the scream of midnight, G Em Two lovers missing the tranquillity of solitude, G Em Getting a cab and travelling on buses, G Em Reading graffiti 'bout slashed seat affairs, I say
[Chorus] Am F That's entertainment, Am F G That's entertainment - Ahh! Em G Em La la la la la la...
Am F That's entertainment, Am F G That's entertainment - Ahh!
[Verse 1 - Light drums] I've been [C]walkin' these streets [C/G]so -[C]long,[C/G] singin' the same [C/G]old [C]song [C/G][C] I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of [G]Broadway [Gsus4][G] Where [F]hustle's the name of the game And nice guys get washed away like the snow and the [C] rain [F/C][C] There's been a [G]load of compromisin', Lord on the [F]road to my ho[C]rizon (just bass drum) But [F]I'm gonna be where the [D/F#]lights are shinin' on [G]me [Gsus4][G]

[Verse 2] Well, I [C]really don't mind [C/G]the [C]rain, [C/G]and a [C]smile can hide [C/G]all the [C]pain But [C/G]you're [C]down when you're ridin' the train that's takin' the [G]long way And I [F]dream of the things I'll do With a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my [C]shoe [F/C][C]
There'll be a [G]load of compromisin', Lord on the [F]road to my ho[C]rizon But [F]I'm gonna be where the [D/F#]lights are shinin' on [G]me [Gsus4][G]
[Chorus] Like a [C]rhine[G/D]stone [C]cowboy, [F/C][C] riding [Cmaj7]out on a horse in a [C6]star-spangled rode[G]o [Gsus4][G] Like a [C]rhine[G/D]stone [C]cowboy, [F/C][C] getting [Cmaj7]cards and letters from [C6]people I don't even [G]know And offers comin' over the phone
[Strings bit] [F][C/E][Dm][C][G/B][F/A] [G][F][Em][Dm] (like a rhine..)
