Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]Well, the place was
New
York
City, and the hour was growing late.
We [D]had walked from the streets of
Harlem to the
[G]Greenwich
Village gate.
We were young and foolish
and trying out for strength.
He [D]said,
James
Dean was his [G]name.
An[D]d I held the rose that
he [G]gave me for an owl
[D]He wrote down the words while
I [G]picked the wildflower
Well, I used to be somebody,
Lord, I [C]used to have a [G]friend
I'd like to be somebody [D]again[G]
I used to be somebody, but
[C]Lord, where have I [G]been? I
ain't ever gonna see
[D]James
Dean [G]again[C][G][D]
[G]
Well, went with
Elvis
Presley to see
Brando from afar
And I said [D]with
Desanne and
Tennessee I did a [G]streetcar named
Desire
We laughed a lot and we danced a lot
and we rocked the way our feet
That was [D]back in my rock
and roll [G]years
[D]When I held the rose that he
[G]gave me for an hour
[D]Elvis sang the song while I
[G]picked the wildflower
Well, used to be somebody,
Lord, I [C]used to have a [G]friend
I'd like to be some[D]body [G]again
I used to be somebody, good
[C]Lord, where have I [G]been? I
ain't ever gonna see
[D]Elvis [G]again
Well,
I've got the best man and my children,
they love me
And I [D]might have done some things
good [G]enough for you to see
But sometimes if
I'm feeling low,
I swing back through my fears
And go [D]back to my rock and roll [G]years
When [D]I held the ropes that
he [G]gave me for an hour
[D]Elvis sang the song while I
[G]picked the wild flowers
[D]When I [G]used to be somebody,
Lord, I [C]used to have a [G]friend
I'd like to be some[D]body [G]again
I used to be somebody important,
[C]where have I bee[G]n?
I ain't never gonna see
[D]Elvis [G]again
I ain't ever gonna see
[D]James
Dean [G]again
I ain't ever gonna see
[D]Patsy
Clyde [G]again
Well, I ain't ever gonna see
Hank
[D]Williams [G]again.
I'm telling you,
I'm gonna give all of you guys,
all of you,
Dave, you've got to really
shine this time, and
Marty, because this is a murder, baby.
Well, it's just, we're all
going to jump in on this thing.
Rodney's playing thumbs and
I'm playing foot.
we'll see what happens.
This is, this one's really,
this one's really got a,
wait a minute, wait a minute,
Norma,
we've not even started.
And it takes so long for this man
to die in here.
We'll just all start together
at once
and then we'll kill that
dude in just a little while.
