Lyrics and Music by Bernie Taupin and Elton John


Intro: G D/F# | Em Em/D
       C C Dsus4 D7 | G

Am                      D     D/F#
When are you gonna come down,
G            G/B      C     C/G
When are you going to land?
  F           F/C           D7
I should have stayed on the farm,
            G                       G G/B
Should have listened to my old man.

    Am7            C         D      D7/F#
You know you can’t hold me forever,
  G           G/B     C    C/G
I didn’t sign up with you,
    F     F/C              D          D7
I’m not a present for your friends to open
     G                             G/F  D
This boy’s too young to be singing

Bridge:
       Cm7  Cm7/G  F  F/A
   The blues…
   Bb Bb/D  Eb/G  Cm  Cm/G   D/A D7/F#
   Ah-ah-ah…

Chorus:
        G                    B
     So goodbye yellow brick road,
               C               G
     Where the dogs of society howl,
         E           E7         Am
     You can’t plant me in your penthouse,
         D/F#      D   D/F# G     D/F# G
     I’m going back to my plough.

     Em                      B
     Back to the howling old owl in the woods,
     C                      Eb
     Hunting the horny back toad,
     Eb  F    G         D/F#     Em     Dsus2 
     Oh, I’ve finally decided my future lies,
       C        D            
     Beyond the yellow brick 

Bridge:
   Cm7  Cm7/G   F  F/A
   Road…
   Bb Bb/D  Eb/G  Cm  Cm/G   D/A D7/F# G
   Ah-ah-ah…

What do you think you’ll do then?
I bet that’ll shoot down your plane.
It’ll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
To set you on your feet again.

May you’ll get a replacement,
There’s plenty like me to be found.
Mongrels who ain’t got a penny,
Sniffing for tidbits like you on

Bridge:
       Cm7  Cm7/G  F  F/A
   The ground…
   Bb Bb/D  Eb/G  Cm  Cm/G   D/A D7/F#
   Ah-ah-ah…

Chorus

Bridge:
   Cm7  Cm7/G   F  F/A
   Road…
   Bb Bb/D  Eb/G  Cm  Cm/G   D/A D7/F# G
   Ah-ah-ah…
