Intro
Em - A - D       Em - A

 

       D           Em                 A                  D
1. Get you, brushing your hair with the wind,

    Em              A                 D               Bm
    riding your bike up on Mulholland Drive.

          G          A
    Oh, I got a five-minute…

 

         D            Em               A                D
2. …rush from you in your faded blue jeans,

     Em              A             D                 Bm          
    How many years is it you've been alive?

           G              A
    Oh, I'll take a guess.

         Em     - A                              D                       Bm
    Rebecca,         could it be eighteen, nineteen or so?

                 Em     - A                     D
    Oh, Rebecca,       will I ever know?

 
     D             Em               A              D
3. No way, where would I fit in your life?

        Em                   A               D                 Bm
     What would you do with a man without change.

              G                     A
    too strange and too poor…

 

                    D        Em           A           D
4. ….to be trusted, rusted a couple of times,

      Em        A                D                Bm
    shaken a bit by the years on the road,

                   G                 A
    and the women I've known?

 

          
    Em     - A                                        D                    
    Rebecca,       you'd have liked the name I gave to you,

                 Em     - A                      D
    Oh, Rebecca,       if you only knew.

 


Em              - A
    Go home        to your father's friends,

Em                   - A
    straight sons        to your mother's friends,

Em                 - A
    sweet ones       to those families,

Em                      A
    well-to-do and so well-established.

 

             D          Em                     A             D
5. And one day you might wake up to a shock, girl,

      Em            A                    D         Bm
    what has it come to, this sensible life.

             G           A
    The wife of a fool?

 
         Em     - A                        D                       Bm
    Rebecca,       reading magazines in a chic salon.

                Em     - A                                 D                
    Oh, Rebecca,       where's Rebecca gone?
