[Verse 1]
Em C
He's a hollow man in a dead land
G F#/Dsus2
He's a fool with men for change
Em C
He's a hot shot, in his high rise
G F#/Dsus2
A glass of wine and a lady by his side
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C
The city is drunk on the money he's burnt
G F#/Dsus2
Yet he still prays these whispered words
Em C
Of 'things are good cause I'm not dead yet'
[Chorus]
C G
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Em F#/Dsus2
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 2]
Em C
He's a warrior and a fighter
G F#/Dsus2
He's a fool with a twisted smile
Em C
In his bloodstream, runs the story
G F#/Dsus2
Of a maestro cut loose in the hands of misuse
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C
The city is drunk on the money he's burnt
G F#/Dsus2
Yet he still prays these whispered words
Em C
Of 'things are good cause I'm not dead yet'
[Chorus]
C G
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Em F#/Dsus2
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
C G Em F#/Dsus2
Look at you maestro, all alone and growing old
C G Em F#/Dsus2
Look at your poor soul, all alone in your city of gold
[Bridge]
Em C G
All our finery, left in pieces on the floor
F#/Dsus2
What a sight to see, he waved away my words
Em C G
All our finery, left in pieces on the floor
F#/Dsus2
What a sight to see, what a sight to see
Em C G
All our finery, left in pieces on the floor
F#/Dsus2 Em
What a sight to see, he waved away my words in search of something more
C G F#/Dsus2
A sight to see, he waved away my words in search of something more
[Instrumental]
Em C G F#/Dsus2
Em C G F#/Dsus2
[Chorus]
C G Em F#/Dsus2
Look at you maestro, all alone and growing old
C G Em F#/Dsus2
Look at your poor soul, all alone in your city of gold
C G Em F#/Dsus2 C G Em F#/Dsus2
Look at you maestro, look at your poor soul
