Gmaj7 Dmaj9
F#7#9 F#7 D#/F# F#7b5
 
[Verse 1]
  Bm/D
Brother in tears
               Gmaj7
Look at this chain of sorrows
           Bm/D              A        E               Bm/D
Stretching all the way from here and now to hell and gone
Bm/D
I was Kid Clean
        Gmaj7
She was Anne de Siècle
          Bm/D           A          E                   Bm/D
Just a thrill away from punching through to the cosmic wow
Cmaj7/D
It started out good
         Bm/D
Then it got lots better
       Cmaj7/D                   Esus4/D E/D
Makin' up the rules as we went alo      ~ong
            Cmaj7/D
But with a business like this
            Gmaj7 Bm/D C/A D
There's a gnar  ~ly   downside
 
[Chorus]
Gm9
I'm way deep into nothing special
                                                  D#maj9
Riding the crest of a wave breaking just west of Hollywood
 
Em Cmaj9
D/E
 
[Verse 2]
  Bm/D
Swingin' so hard
                   Gmaj7
We burned right through the summer
         Bm/D           A        E                   Bm/D
Till the axis of pain/pleasure sheared the arc of desire
          Bm/D
From the Rebus affair
                   Gmaj7
To the streets of Culver City
  Bm/D       A            E               Bm/D
Places and events slip below the horizon line
Cmaj7/D
Now at this time
           Bm/D
Into our pretty story
      Cmaj7/D                            Esus4/D E/D
The truth compels us to bring a certain na      ~ame
 Cmaj7/D
Meet if you will
     Gmaj7 Bm/D C/A D
Dr. Warr  ~en Kru  ~ger
 
[Chorus]
Gm9
I'm way deep into nothing special
                                                  D#maj9
Riding the crest of a wave breaking just west of Hollywood

[Bridge]
E/F#
She reached out for my hand
         D#m7b5    C#m7         G#7b9
While I watched myself lurch across the room
              C#5      A#m7b5/C#
And I almost got there
          C#5      C#maj9
I almost got there
          C#5      A#m7b5/C#
I almost got there
        C#5      A#m7b5/C#
Almost got there
 
[Verse 3]
 F#/G#
Look in my eyes
                   Gmaj7
Don't you see the core is frozen?
          G            A         E                  Bm/D
You can't ask me to access the dreams I don't have now
 Bm/D
Sadly for us
            Gmaj7
Our little talk is over
      D              A        E                        Bm/D
So together we'll endure the tyranny of the disallowed
Cmaj7/D
Don't you love Port Blanc
           Bm/D
When Hooterie is over?
          Cmaj7/D                           Esus4/D E/D
When the girls get easy and the crowds are go      ~one
   Cmaj7/D
A weekend of bliss
          Gmaj7 Bm/D C/A D
Then the rai   ~ny  sea~son
 
[Chorus]
Gm9
I'm way deep into nothing special
                                                  D#maj9
Riding the crest of a wave breaking just west of Hollywood
