Lyrics by Bernie Taupin and Music by Elton John

Intro: Am G/A Am Am7 G/E Am7
       Gadd9/A Am Gadd9/E G/A Am

    G/E     Am
I’m getting bored
Being part of mankind,
              C7
There’s not a lot to do no more,
F7                      D7
This race is a waste of time.

Am
People rushing everywhere,
C7
Swarming around like flies,
F7
Think I’ll buy a forty-four,
D7                 E7
Give ‘em all a surprise.

Chorus:
   C7
     Think I’m gonna kill myself,
   D7
     Cause a little suicide,
   G7
     Stick around for a couple of days,
   F                C
     What a scandal if I died.

   C7
     Yeah, I’m gonna kill myself,
   D7
     Get a little headline news.
   G7
     I’d like to see what the papers say
            F7               C
     On the state of teenage blues.

Instrumental: C C C G/B | Am Am Am C/G
              F F F C/E | Dm E7

Am
A rift in my family,
C7
I can’t use the car,
F7
I gotta be in by ten o’clock,
D7
– Who do they think they are?

Am
I’d make an exception
       C7
If you want to save my life,
F7
Brigitte Bardot gotta come
    D7           E7
And see me every night.

Chorus:
   C7
     I think I’m gonna kill myself,
   D7
     Cause a little suicide,
   G7
     Stick around for a couple of days,
   F                C
     What a scandal if I died.

   C7
     Yeah, I’m gonna kill myself,
   D7
     Get a little headline news.
   G7
     I’d like to see what the papers say
            F7               C
     On the state of teenage blues.

     Suicide,
   F                C
     What a scandal if I died.

   C7
     Suicide,
   D7               G7
     Headline news.
            F7               C
     On the state of teenage blues.
