Lyrics by Bernie Taupin and Music by Elton John

Intro: Ebm C#/Eb Ebm Ebm7 C#/Bb Ebm7
       C#add9/Eb Ebm C#add9/Bb C#/Eb Ebm

    C#/Bb   Ebm
I’m getting bored
Being part of mankind,
              F#7
There’s not a lot to do no more,
B7                      G#7
This race is a waste of time.

Ebm
People rushing everywhere,
F#7
Swarming around like flies,
B7
Think I’ll buy a forty-four,
G#7                Bb7
Give ‘em all a surprise.

Chorus:
   F#7
     Think I’m gonna kill myself,
   G#7
     Cause a little suicide,
   C#7
     Stick around for a couple of days,
   B                F#
     What a scandal if I died.

   F#7
     Yeah, I’m gonna kill myself,
   G#7
     Get a little headline news.
   C#7
     I’d like to see what the papers say
            B7               F#
     On the state of teenage blues.

Instrumental: F# F# F# C#/F | Ebm Ebm Ebm F#/C#
              B B B F#/Bb | G#m Bb7

Ebm
A rift in my family,
F#7
I can’t use the car,
B7
I gotta be in by ten o’clock,
G#7
– Who do they think they are?

Ebm
I’d make an exception
       F#7
If you want to save my life,
B7
Brigitte Bardot gotta come
    G#7          Bb7
And see me every night.

Chorus:
   F#7
     I think I’m gonna kill myself,
   G#7
     Cause a little suicide,
   C#7
     Stick around for a couple of days,
   B                F#
     What a scandal if I died.

   F#7
     Yeah, I’m gonna kill myself,
   G#7
     Get a little headline news.
   C#7
     I’d like to see what the papers say
            B7               F#
     On the state of teenage blues.

     Suicide,
   B                F#
     What a scandal if I died.

   F#7
     Suicide,
   G#7              C#7
     Headline news.
            B7               F#
