Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]You[F#] had [Bm]your[G] grand[A][D]
illusion and [A]wrestled with your fate
The [Em]winter of your discontent came
[F#]twenty [F#aug]years too lat[Bbaug]e
If it was [Bm]love and I was there
I've for[E]gotten where it [Em]lives
[G]We bot[D]h stepped off a f[A]rozen
rock on[G]to a burning bridge
You [D]came like an invasion all [A]bells
and [Bm]whistles blow[A]ing
[Em]Reaping the rewards [G]of
[F#]the fable [F#aug]you'd been sowing
[F#]I sa[Bm]w you cross the land[A]ing and[Bm]
des[E]cending marble [G]stairs
Like [D]Caesar crossed the [A]Rubicon
[G]you seemed to walk on air

[Verse 2]
And [D]yeah I've seen your [F#]movie
[Bm]And I read it in your book
The [G]truth just flew off [D]every page
Your [F#]songs have all the hooks
[Bm]You're seven wonders rolled in [A]one
[D]You shifted gear to cru[G]ise
Oh you [D]came to town in head[Em]lines
[G]And eight hun[D]dred dollar
[A]shoes
[D][F#][Bm][A]

[Verse 3]
[G]
[A]Oh the [D]bellboys are crying and
[A]moneys changing hands
Your [Em]cloak and dagger legacy's gone
[F#aug]home to no man's land[F#]
The [Bm]mar quee lights are flickering
[E]your poster's fading [Em]fast
Your [D]being here just [A]melts away
like [G]ice cubes in a glass

[Verse 4]
And [D]yeah I've seen your [F#]movie
[Bm]And I read it in your book
The [G]truth just flew off [D]every page
Your [F#]songs have all the hooks
[F#]You're seven
[Bm]wonders rolled in one
You shifted gear [G]to cruise[Em]
[G]Oh you [D]came to town in head[G]lines
And eight [D]hundred [A]dollar [D]shoes

[Verse 5]
Oh you [D]came to town in head[G]lines
And eight [D]hundred dollar [A]shoes

[Outro 1]
[D][F#][Bm][A][G][A][D]
