Shady Lane

[Intro]
G
Blind date with the chancer,
       Em
we had oysters and dry lancers
        Bm                              C
And the check, when it arrived, we went Dutch, Dutch,
Dutch, Dutch
  G                         Em
A redder shade of neck on a whiter shade of trash
         Bm               C
And this emory board is giving me a rash
G
I'm flat out
Em          Bm               C
  You're so beautiful to look at when you cry
G
Freeze, don't move

[Bridge]
Em            Bm              C
  You've been chosen as an extra in the movie adaptation of
              D
the sequel to your life

[Chorus]
G        Em    Bm        C
 A shady lane, everybody wants one
G        Em    Bm        C
 A shady lane, everybody needs one
           Am         G
Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God,
D/F#
oh  my God
C          Am           G
Oh my God, oh your God, oh his God,
D/F#
oh  her God
     C
It's everybody's God,
     Am
it's everybody's God
     G
It's everybody's God,
     D/F#
it's everybody's God

[Interlude]
    Em
The worlds collide,
    C               D          C   G
but all that I want is a shady lane

[Bridge]
G Em Bm C

[Verse 2]
G                  Em
Glance, don't stare
            Bm              C
Soon you're being told to recognize your heirs
G         Em
No, not me
       Bm                  C
I'm an island of such great complexity
G               Em
Stress surrounds
          Bm             C
In the muddy peaceful center of this town
G       Em
Tell me off
       Bm               C
In the hotel lobby right in front of

[Bridge]
                                         D
All the bellboys and the overfriendly concierge

[Chorus]
G        Em    Bm        C
 A shady lane, everybody wants one
G        Em    Bm        C
 A shady lane, everybody needs one
           Am         G
Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God,
D/F#
oh  my God
C          Am           G
Oh my God, oh your God, oh his God,
D/F#
oh  her God
     C
It's everybody's God,
     Am
it's everybody's God
     G
It's everybody's God,
     D/F#
it's everybody's God

[Interlude]
    Em
The worlds collide,
    C               D          C   G
but all that I want is a shady lane
