This old [Eb]town is filled with [Bb]sin
It will [Eb7]swallow you i[Ab]n
If [Eb]you've got some money to [Bb]burn[Bb7]
Take it [Eb]home right [Bb]away
[Bb]You've got [Eb7]three years to [Ab]pay
But [Eb]Satan is[Bb7] waiting his [Eb]turn[Eb7]
This old [Ab]earthquake's gonna [Bb7]leave me in the [Eb]poor hou[Eb7]se
It [Ab]seems like this [Eb]whole town's [Bb]insane
On the [Ab]thirty-first [Bb7]floor a [Eb]gold [Eb7]plated [Ab]door
Won't [Eb]keep out the [Bb7]Lord's burning [Eb]rain[Bb]
The [Eb]scientists [Bb]say
It will [Eb7]all wash [Ab]away
But [Eb]we don't believe any [Bb]mor[Bb7]e
Cause we've [Eb]got our [Bb]recruits
And our [Eb7]green mohair s[Ab]uits
So [Eb]please show your [Bb7]I.D. At the [Eb]door[Eb7]
This old [Ab]earthquake's gonna [Bb7]leave me in the [Eb]poor house[Eb7]
It [Ab]seems like this [Eb]whole town's i[Bb7]nsane
On the [Ab]thirty-first [Bb7]floor a [Eb]gold [Eb7]plated [Ab]door
Won't [Eb]keep out the [Bb7]Lord's burning [Eb]rain[Bb]
SOLO
A [Eb]friend came [Bb]around
Tried to [Eb7]clean up this [Ab]town
His [Eb]ideas made some people [Bb]mad[Bb7]
But he [Eb]trusted his [Bb]crowd
So he [Eb7]spoke right out [Ab]loud
And [Eb]they lost the best [Bb7]friend they [Eb]had[Eb7]
This old [Ab]earthquake's gonna [Bb7]leave me in the [Eb]poor hou[Eb7]se
It [Ab]seems like this [Eb]whole town's [Bb7]insane
On the [Ab]thirty-first [Bb7]floor a [Eb]gold [Eb7]plated [Ab]door
Won't [Eb]keep out the [Bb7]Lord's burning [Eb]rain[Eb7]
On the [Ab]thirty-first [Bb7]floor a [Eb]gold [Eb7]plated [Ab]door
Won't [Eb]keep out the [Bb7]Lord's burning [Ab]rain[Eb]
