Intro -
I'm [Am]broke and I'm hungry, [G]hard up and I'm lonely
I've been [Am]dancing on this [G]killing floor for [F]years
Of the [Am]few things I am certain, the [G]captain of my burden
I'm [Am]sorry doll, I could [G]never stop the [F]rain
Interlude -
Am - G - Am - G - F (x2)
Verse 1-
Once you [Am]said I was your hero, you would [G]dance with me on a dime
We could [Am]spin this world right [G]right right round,
And [F]catch back up on the flip side
I was gonna [Am]get this real big engine,
I was gonna [G]get them Broadway Stars
You were gonna [Am]be my Judy [G]Garland,
We were gonna [F]share your Tin Man heart
Chorus -
[C]There's a dirty wind blo[G]win', there's a storm front comin' [Am]in
There's an [F]S.O.S. on the seas tonight
[C]Steady now, Steady [G]now, soldier hold fast [Am]now
It's heads or tails and [F]heart at[G]tacks and [Am]broken [G]dreams to[Am]night
Interlude -
[Am] [-] [G] [-] [Am] [-] [G] [-] [F]
Verse 2 -
We used to [Am]drive all night, [G]all over town
We'd go [Am]waltzing Ma[G]tilda when Ma[F]tilda came around
And I'd sing them blues to you
Chorus -
[C]There's a dirty wind blo[G]win', there's a storm front comin' [Am]in
There's an S.O.S. on the [F]seas tonight

There's an S.O.S. on the [F]seas tonight

It's heads or tails an[F]d heart [G]attacks an[Am]d broke[G]n dreams [Am]tonight
And [F]heart at[G]tacks and [Am]broken [G]dreams
At[F]lantis [G]is my [C]only [G]dream to[Am]night
