[Gm] know you can't hold me for [C] ever .. I

[F] goodbye yellow brick [A7] road .. Where the
[Bb] dogs of society [F] howl .. You
[D7] can't plant me in your [Gm] penthouse .. I'm
[C] going back to my [F] plough
[Dm] Back to the howling old [A] owl in the woods
[Bb] Hunting the horny black [Db] toad
[Db] Oh [Eb] I've [F] finally [C/E] decided my
[Dm] future lies [Dm/C] ... Be
[Bb] yond the [C] yellow brick

[F] bet they'll shoot down the plane [Bb] .. It'll
[Gm] take you a couple of [C] vodka and tonics .. to
[F] set you on your feet again [F]
[Gm] Maybe you'll get a re [C] placement .. There's
[F] plenty like me to be [Bb] found

[Dm] Back to the howling old [A] owl in the woods
[Bb] Hunting the horny black [Db] toad
