(Capo 3rd fret)

(Intro) D A Bm Bm7 G A D 

Em                      A7     
When are you gonna come down
D                     G
When are you going to land
  C                         A7
I should have stayed on the farm, I should have
D                             
Listened to my old man
    Em                      A7
You know you can't hold me forever
  D                   G
I didn't sign up with you
    C                      A7
I'm not a present for your friends to open
     D                                  
This boy's too young to be singing the
Gm     C   F           Bb      Gm      A7    
Blues...   Ah..ah..ah..ah...   Ah..ah..ah

(Chorus)

   D                    F#7
So Goodbye yellow brick road
          G               D
Where the dogs of society howl
    B7                     Em
You can't plant me in your penthouse
    A                D      A
I'm going back to my plough
Bm                      F#
Back to the howling old owl in the woods
G                      Bb
Hunting the horny back toad
C       D       A           Bm     Bm7  
Oh I've finally decided, my future lies
  G         A  
Beyond the yellow brick 
Gm    C   F           Bb      Gm      A   D
Road...   Ah..ah..ah..ah...   Ah..ah..ah  ah


Em                       A7   
What do you think you'll do then
  D                           G
I bet they'll shoot down your plane
      C                    A7
It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
   D
To set you on your feet again
Em                   A7
Maybe you'll get a replacement
        D                    G
There's plenty like me to be found
C            A7
Mongrels who ain't got a penny
D
Sniffing for tit-bits like you on the 
Gm      C   F           Bb      Gm      A    
Ground...   Ah..ah..ah..ah...   Ah..ah..ah 

(Chorus)

   D                    F#7
So Goodbye yellow brick road
          G               D
Where the dogs of society howl
    B7                     Em
You can't plant me in your penthouse
    A                D      A
I'm going back to my plough
Bm                      F#
Back to the howling old owl in the woods
G                      Bb
Hunting the horny back toad
C       D       A           Bm     Bm7  
Oh I've finally decided, my future lies
  G         A  
Beyond the yellow brick 
Gm    C   F           Bb      Gm      A   D (hold)
Road...   Ah..ah..ah..ah...   Ah..ah..ah  ah
