Kid Charlemagne

[Intro]
C7#9

[Verse 1]
Am7                             G6
   While the music played you worked by candlelight
      F9
Those San Francisco nights
               Bb9add13
You were the best      in town
Am7                                 G6
   Just by chance you crossed the diamond with the pearl
    F9
You turned it on the world
                  Bb9add13
That's when you turned    the world around

[Pre-Chorus]
F        G           Am7 G6
 Did you feel like Jesus?
             Dm7 Dm/F
Did you realize 
                   Em             Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7 C7#9
That you were a champion in their eyes?

[Verse 2]
Am7                            G6
   On the hill the stuff was laced with kerosene
    F9
But yours was kitchen clean
         Bb9add13
Everyone stopped to stare at your technicolor motor home
Am7                        G6
   Every AFrame had your number on the wall
    F9
You must have had it all
              Bb9add13
You'd go to L.A. on a dare
                   F
And you'd go it alone

[Pre-Chorus]
          G        Am7 G6
Could you live forever?
                    Dm7 Dm/F
Could you see the day? 
                       Em                 Fmaj7    Em7
Could you feel your whole world fall apart     and fade
 Dm7
away?

[Chorus]
Dm7     Em7
   Get along
Dm7     Em7
   Get along, Kid Charlemagne
Dm7     Em7               F7 G7 C7#9
   Get along, Kid Charlemagne

[Verse 3]
Am7                            G6
   Now your patrons have all left you in the red
        F9
Your low  rent friends are dead
                Bb9add13
This life can be        very strange
Am7                             G6
   All those DayGlo freaks who used to paint the face
        F9
They've joined the human race
            Bb9add13
Some things will    never change

[Pre-Chorus]
F         G         Am7 G6
 Son, you were mistaken
            Dm7 Dm/F
You are obsolete
                   Em                 Fmaj7 Em7
Look at all the white men on the street
Dm7 Dm7 Em7
  Get along

[Chorus]
Dm7     Em7
   Get along, Kid Charlemagne
Dm7     Em7               F7 G7 C7#9
   Get along, Kid Charlemagne

[Bridge]
C7#9

[Verse 4]
Am7                               G6
   Clean this mess up else we'll all end up in jail
        F9
Those test tubes and the scale
                  Bb9add13
Just get them all out     of here
Am7
   Is there gas in the car
G6                          F9
  Yes, there's gas in the car 
               Bb9add13
I think the people down the hall
Know who you are

[Pre-Chorus]
F        G          Am7 G6
 Careful what you carry
                  Dm7 Dm/F
'Cause the man is wise
                   Em            Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7
You are still an outlaw in their eyes
Dm7   Em7
 Get along

[Chorus]
Dm7     Em7
   Get along, Kid Charlemagne
Dm7     Em7               F7  G7 C7#9
   Get along, Kid Charlemagne.
