Verse 1
(D major) (C major) (G major) Oh, (D major) hello there,
you cough and smile (C major)
(G major) You're (D major) here messed
up and up a little while
He (G major) said, I'm sorry, but it's all a waste
Not (D major) a whole meal, just a little taste
Now (G major) there's nothing
left to fight and gain
Another (E major) line, another card, (A major)
think of your name
On the (D major) Golden Bonsai (G major) (D major) L .A. it calls
and London brings the star (C major)
(G major) Get (D major) on the phone to find
out who you are (G major) (D major)
The (G major) happiness was a dying grin
You (D major) say you saw that train
around the bend
That (G major) was carrying its weight in pain
The (E major) engine spraining
on the (A major) full weight of your name
And the (D major) golden ball and chain
(G major) You saw it then, you saw the sign
A (F major) drowning sailor (D major) in a troubled mind
First (G major) it was her, but now it's you
The (A major) psycho analyst is
there to tell you what
No psychoanalyst is there to tell you
what to do (G major) (F major) (E major) (D major) (C major)
(G major) So (D major) now you whimper like
a helpless child (C major)
(G major) You (D major) broke when they quit
saying you were wild
(G major) But your tears, are like grass and sand
They (D major) speak to no one,
they get no command
(G major) Now there's nothing left to fight or gain
Another, (E major) not another card, (A major)
make up your name
On the (D major) golden ball and chain (G major) (C major) (G major) (D major)
On the golden ball and chain (G major) (D major)
I'm a love, I'm a change (G major) (C major) (G major)
(D major) I'm a love, I'm a change (G major)
(D major) I'm a love, I'm a change (G major) (C major) (G major) (D major)
Outro 1
I'm a god on a chain
(G major) (C major) (G major) (D major)
