[Verse - No drums - just pluck chords slight string slap]
[Gm] Slow down you [Bb] crazy child
You're so [F] ambitious for a [Ab] juvenile
But then if [Eb] you're so smart tell me [Bb] why
You are still so a [C] fraid [C/D -x5555x] [D]
[Verse]
[Gm] Where's the fire, what's the [Bb] hurry about
You better [F] cool it off before you [Ab] burn it out
You got [Eb] so much to do and only
[Bb] So many hours in a [Am7] day [C/D] [D]
(drums in - string light slap)
[Eb] But you know that when the [F] truth is told
That you can [Bb] get what you [F/A] want
Or you can [Gm] just get [Bb/F] old
You're gonna [Eb] kick off before you [Am7] even get
[D7] halfway [Gm7] through .... (drums stop) ooh [C7] ooh
When will you [Gb9 run] realize
[F] Vienna waits for [Bb] you
[Verse - Drums backs in - String slap]
[Gm] Slow down you're [Bb] doing fine
You can't be [F] everything you want to be
[Ab] Before your time
Although it's [Eb] so romantic on the [Bb] borderline
[C] tonight [C/D] [D]
[Verse]
[Gm] Too bad but it's [Bb] the life you lead
You're so a [F] head of yourself
That you for [Ab] got what you need
Though you can [Eb] see when you're wrong
But you know you [Bb] can't always see when you're
[Am7] right you're [C/D] right [D]
[Verse - Full drums]
[Eb] You got your passion you [F] got your pride
But [Bb] don't you know only [F/A] fools are
[Gm] satisfied [Bb/F]
[Eb] Dream on, but don't [Am7] imagine they'll
[D7] all come [Gm7] true .... (drums stop) ooh [C7] ooh
When will you [Gb9 - run] realize
[F] Vienna waits for you [Bb]

to play solo and drums at the same time)
Gm Bb F Ab
Eb Bb Am7 C/D D
[Verse - Full drums]
[Eb] Slow down you [F] crazy child
Take the [Bb] phone off the [F/A] hook
And disap [Gm] pear for a while [Bb/F]
[Eb] It's alright you can [Am7] afford to lose a
[D7] day or [Gm7] two .... (drums stop) ooh [C7] ooh
When will you [Gb9 - run] realize
[F] Vienna waits for you [Bb]
(drums back in)
[Eb] But you know that when the [F] truth is told
That you can [Bb] get what you [F/A] want
Or you can [Gm] just get [Bb/F] old
You're gonna [Eb] kick off before you [Am7]
even get [D7] halfway [Gm7] through .... ooh [C7] ooh
