San Luis Obispo Chords

(ver. 1)
Scissor Sisters
[Intro]

G Em Am D C D


[Verse 1]

G                            B7
Well she left me here halfway
            Am
Between the bright lights of Los Angeles
         C                D
And the tawdry nights of San Jose
G                          B7
With Ecstacy and Ivory Wave
       Am
And a backpack full of Captain Jack
    C                   D
To take me to an early grave
Am
And I've never been to paradise
Am
Standing on this corner by myself
D
You don't have to tell me twice


[Chorus 1]

G
And the world's not gonna end
Em
If I could just pretend
C
That here's a place to go
D
San Luis Obispo
G
And the streets may look the same
Em
Of any town by any name
C
Gonna find my afterglow
D
San Luis Obispo
     G            Em
The difference between delight
     C               Am            D
And loneliness could be a one way flight
D                         G
In these San Luis Obispo nights


[Verse 2]

G                         B7
Where no one seems to mind
        Am
If you string your words together with
      C                        D
Kool cigarettes and sparkling wine
G                          B7
Keep the conversation light
       Am
Wait until the girls get under-dressed
     C                  D
And then the talk gets less polite
Am
And I could stay here all my days
Am
But will I spend my life deciding if
D
Happiness is just a phase


[Chorus 2]

G
And I hope that I'm not wrong
Em
Maybe here's where I belong
C
Every winter free of snow
D
San Luis Obispo
G
But if she's coming back again
Em
I would flee but until then
C
Every day my love it grows
D
San Luis Obispo
     G            Em
The difference between delight
     C            Am              D
And loneliness is never black or white
D                          G
In these San Luis Obispo nights


[Interlude]

G Em C D   x2


[Bridge]

CM7           Bm
Sorry you misunderstood
     Am              D
This kid with his intentions good
      G             B7               Em
When all I had was two feet left to stand
    CM7               Bm
And if you're coming back through town
Am                D
Put your ear down to the ground
       C                                   D
Cause this boy's voice has changed into a man's


[Chorus 3]

G
And I hope that I'm not wrong
Em
Baby here's where I belong
C
Every winter free of snow
D
San Luis Obispo
G
But if she's coming back again
Em
I would flee but until then
C
Every day my love it grows
D
San Luis Obispo
     G            Em   
The difference between delight
     C               Am            D
And loneliness could be a one way flight
D                          G
In these San Luis Obispo nights


[Outro]

G Em Am C D G
