E                     F#11
The gentleman's in the lane
G                         Cadd2
Spinning his hat on a cane
          Asus2           C
Stepping out, out for a change
                D                  Fmaj7/A C
Good morning all, it's a beautiful day

E                            F#11
The generals are winning the war
G                     Cadd2      Asus2
Seemed suicidal before you came along
        C
Now, now
             D                   Fmaj7/A C
I'll protect you, long as you'll stay

Am7     Cadd4   C           Bb            D    G  
Morning had to come, I'd be walking in the sun
                F#11
Living in the day
         C                                  E   
But last night I was about to throw it all away

If patience started a band
I'd be her biggest fan
Look at me, I'm talking to you
I don't want the lead in your play

The star's just a part of the scene
The gentleman in green
Paying off, out on the street
I can't go home, it's not on my way

LA
Things I've never done, cars parked in the sun
Living in the day
But last night I was about to throw it all away

     C                                   E
Last night I was about to throw it all away
     C                                   E
Last night I was about to throw it all away
     C                                   E
Last night I was about to throw it all away
