| G | D | Bb | F | |
| Got out of | bed, wasn't | feeling too | good |
| C | Cm | Bb | |
| With my wallet and my | passport, a | new pair of | shoes |
| G | D | Bb | F | |
| The sun was | shining so I | head for the | park |
| C | Cm | Bb | |
| With a bottle of tequ | ila and a | new pack of | cigarrettes |
| I got a cousin, and sge got a friend |
| Who thought that her aunt knew a man who could help |
| At his apartment, I knock on the door |
| He wouldn't come out until he got paid |
| Pre-chorus |
| Bb | Eb | Bb | Eb | Bb | Eb | |
| Now | don't | tell anyb | ody wh | at I | wanna | do |
| Bb | Eb | Bb | Eb | Eb | Bb | Eb | |
| If t | hey fi | nd ou | t, y | ou know that they'll | never let me t | hrough |
| Chorus |
| Bb | Eb | Bb | Eb | F | Bb | Eb | Bb | Eb | F | |
| Cos it's | no fu | n b | eing | an | illegal | alie | n | (X | 2 or however many you feel like) |
| Down at the office had to fill out the forms |
| A pink one, a red one, the colours you choose |
| Up to the counter to see what they think, they said, |
| "It doesn't count, man, it aint written in ink" |
| I don't trust anybody, least not around here |
| (Chorus) |
| Lead in to bridge (the keyboard solo) |
| Bb (2 bars) Ab(2 bars) |
| An illegal alien, OK |
| Bridge (background chords) whole phrase x2 |
| G(no 3rd) 2 bars G(no 3)/C 2 bars G(no 3)/Eb 1 bar |
| G(no 3)/D G(no 3)/F half bar each |
| D | G | |
| Consideration | for your fellow man |
| C | D7sus4 | |
| Would not | hurt anybody, | sure fits in with my plan |
| Where everything comes easy, you just hold out your hand |
| there's a bit where the chords are Bm | Em |D |A | x2 |
| then back to pre-chorus and chorus. Lyrics I left out can be found |
| at uwp among other places. |
| Enjoy! |
