Intro:
Bm7 ? Em7
D/A - A7sus4 ? D/A ? A7sus4
G ? F ? D

[Dmaj9]All the people [D]at this par-[G]ty
They?ve got a lot of style
[D] They?ve got stamps of many coun-[C]tries
They?ve got passport smiles

Some are [Bm7]friend-ly, some are cutting
Some are [Em7]watch-ing it from the wings
Some are [D/A]stand-ing in the [A7sus4]cen- - [D/A]ter
Giving [A7sus4]to get something

[Dmaj9] Photo beauty gets at-ten-[G] tion
Then her eye paint?s running [D]down
She?s got a rose in her [C]teeth
And a lampshade crown

[Bm7]One minute she?s so happy
Then she?s [Em7]cry-ing on someone?s knee
Saying, ?[D/A]Laugh-ing and cry-[A7sus4]ing
[D/A]You know, it?s [A7sus4]the same release?

I [Dmaj9]told you when I met you
I was [G]cra-zy
Cry for us al[D]l, beauty
Cry for Eddie in the [C]cor-ner
Thinking he?s nobody
And [Bm7]Jack behind his joker
And stone-cold [Em7]Grace behind her fan
And [D/A]me in my frightened [A7sus4]si- - -[D/A]lence
Thinking [A7sus4]I don?t understand

I [Dmaj9]feel like I?m sleep-[G] ing
Can you wake [D]me?
You seem to have a [C]broad-er sensibility
I?m just [Bm7]liv-ing on nerves and feelings
With a [Em7]weak and a lazy mind
And [D/A]com-ing to people?s [A7sus4]par- - [D/A]ties
Fumb-[A7sus4]ling deaf, dumb, and blind

I [Dmaj9]wish I had more sense of humor
[G] Keeping the sad-[F] -[D]ness at bay
[D] Throwing the lightness [C]on these things

Laughing it al[Bm7]l aw[Em7]ay[D/A][A7sus4][D/A][A7sus4]
(3x)

[G]Laugh-ing it [F]all[D] away
