Elton John - The Wasteland guitar tab

The Wasteland

Gm C Bb Gm

Gm C Bb Gm

Eb7

Some days I think it's all a dream

C F D/F# D7/F#

The things I've done, the places that I've been

Gm Eb7

This life of mine seemed surreal at times

C Dsus4 D Gm

Wasted days and nights in someone else's mind

C Bb Gm

Gm C Bb Gm

Could it be I'm not for real?

I've slapped my face to check out how I feel

There's hostages to prove it's true

Who lives behind the mask was never proved

F Bb

Come on Robert Johnson

F Bb

Though we're worlds apart

Eb Eb/D

You and I know what it's like

C#mb5 D

With the devil in our heart

Cm Gm

You sold your soul at the crossroads

Fm6/G# G7

Kept a little of mine on hand

Eb C/E F D/F#

I'm wading out this muddy water

Gm F Eb D Gm

Been stranded in the Wasteland

Rattling chains all around my bed

Ghosts can laugh but they're already dead

I'm not dying and I'm far from gone

The blues man spent his candle but his pain lives on

Gm C Bb Gm

(the above line repeats and when you want to end-->)

Gm F Eb D Gm
