Ben Folds – Adelaide (Guitar)

E
[tab]             A
Far from the United States of L.A.

                E
Dropping in from outer space

                         A
Takes a day now I see the Bogans at the motor race

A               F#m                B
Here you know the world could turn or crash and burn

   C              C#m
And you would never know it

               A
Going where the air is clear

                      E
There's better beer in Adelaide

E
Charlie Hill Smith's forty

                  A
Someone spiked my rice the rest, history

           E
Now I am a fixture down Rundle Mall

                A
Watching as the locals pass silver balls

                F#m                 B
I can see their eyes around they're pointed down

     C                 C#m
They scan the spanning sidewalks

                    A                           E
Learning that there is no hurry, fuss or worry, Adelaide

B           A            F#m       G#m
Its raining in Adelaide, a face is waiting in a window

B              A             F#m            G#m
A voice says, "Why Adelaide, you could live anywhere" And I say,

B              A
                 "Because I want to,

B              C#m
                  because I want to,

D#m                                E
                  I really, really want to"

A              F#m                B
And you know the earth could turn or crash and burn

    C             C#m
And you would never know it, really got to

A
make it to the finish line

A
Get the record done on time,

A
pack the bags and catch a flight

A
And you can kiss my ass goodbye

  E        E        E        E
On Adelaide, Adelaide, Adelaide, Adelaide
