Blaze Of Glory

Joe Jackson

 GDGD
                                     Johnny was a young boy with nothing much
 FCFC
But a certain kind of look in his eyes  
 GDG
 He was discovered one day seems he had
 DFCFC
a certain appeal to certain kind of guys  
 GDGD
 Gave him some advice and set him out
 FCFC
To make the young girls cry  
 GDGD
 And all the young boys being dumb and restless
 FCFC
They could identify  
Prechorus
 DAsus2F
 So tell me who'll take the blame 
For the way things turned out
Verse 2 - same pattern as 1st
Well six long months passed and Johnny
was the hottest thing alive
We loved Johnny and we owned Johnny
Nobody knew how Johnny felt inside
But Johnny was beautiful he was like a God
We all went along for the ride
The ride started to go too fast
Johnny just conviently died
Prechorus 2(same as 1st)
And he went up in flames
He did what he had to do
Chorus
 FGG/AG/BD
 And they say its a trag-ic   story
 FCFC
He just wasn't there one day  
 GG/AG/BD
But he went out in a blaze of   glory
 FCFCAsus2
 And you and I, you and I just fade away
Verse 3 - same as other two
Well now days there's lots of guys like Johnny
They got it all worked out, like working nine to five
But they're all cartoons, they all think they're superman
But they can't even fly
They say that Johnny's ghost walks down in Memphis
Wehn the moon is full and high
And I wonder if he sees these jokers
I wonder if he laughs or if he cries
Prechorus - same
Now he's an angel in flames
but what about you and me.
Chorus twice
