Idol chords

Am9  Bm7   Em  F9  Bm7 Abdim/E Ddim/E

 Am7
Oh, he was a light star
  Bm7
Tripping on a high wire
  Abmaj7               Ebmaj7
Bulldog stubborn and born uneven
  B+
A classless creature
   Abdim / E      Am7
A man for all seasons but don't bet them
            Bm7
They can't take him to the very bottom
        Abmaj7                  Ebmaj7
Because they made him and they'll waste him
              B+     Abdim/E  Abdim    Am7
And I don't believe that I want to watch them

[Piano interlude]
Am9 Bm9 Abmaj7   Ebmaj7


         B+          Abdim/E     Am9      Em/A
Because the fifties shifted out of gear
           D7            G        G7/B   C
He was an idol then, now he's an idol here
C        D/C                Bm7             Em7
But his face has changed, he's not the same, no more
A7                 B7               Abdim/E              Am7
And I have to say that I like the way his music sounded before


       Am9
He was tight-assed
Bm9
Walking on broken glass
Abmaj7                  Ebmaj7
Highly prized in the wallet size
          B+            Abdim/E      Am9
The number one crush in a schoolgirl's eyes
Am9                             Bm9
But don't pretend that it won't end

In the depth of your despair
Abmaj7                                  Ebmaj7
You went from lame suits right down to tennis shoes
    B+    Abdim/E         Am7    Am9
To peanuts from the lion's share, alright
