[Verse]
          Am          
While the music played
G7                       
You worked by candlelight
F                   C     
Those San Francisco nights
                     C7  
You were the best in town
Am                           
■  Just by chance you crossed
G7                        
The diamond with the pearl
F                         
You turned it on the world
                                 C7    
That's when you turned the world around


[Chorus]
        G7        C7   
Did you feel like Jesus
G       Dm7    
Did you realize
F               Em7               F    Em7 C7
That you were a champion in their eyes ■   ■ 


[Verse]
Am                           G7         G       
■  On the hill the stuff was laced with kerosene
    F                      
But yours was kitchen clean
F                        
Everyone stopped to stare
                    Am7      
At your Technicolor motorhome
F                     G7                
Every Aframe had your number on the wall
F                       
You must have had it all
                    F   
You'd go to LA on a dare
C7              F    
And you'd go it alone
          G    Am     
Could you live forever
G                 Dm7
Could you see the day


[Chorus]
F                   Em7        
Could you feel your whole world
Dm7                     
Fall apart and fade away
    Em        G         Em         
Get along get along Kid Charlemagne
    G7        F7          G7 C7
Get along Kid Charlemagne ■  ■ 


[Verse]
Am          Bb      Am  
■  Now your patrons have
    Am                 
All left you in the red
G7   G F                       
Your ■ lowrent friends are dead
                      Bb      C7
This life can be very strange ■ 
Am7           G7     Am7   
■   All those DayGlo freaks
Am                          
Who used to paint their face
F                            
They've joined the human race
            Bb         Bb7   
Some things will never change


[Chorus]
        G    G7       Am
Son you were mistaken ■ 
G        Dm7     
You were obsolete
F               Em7              F      C
Look at all the white men on the street ■
    Em7       G7        G           D7
Get along get along Kid Charlemagne ■ 
    G7        F7

[Verse]
           Dm7    
Clean this mess up
           G7                
Else we'll all end up in jail
      F                       
Those test tubes and the scale
                F         
Just get it all outta here
Am7          Dm7           
■   Is there gas in the car
G7                     F  
Yes there's gas in the car
                            C7  
I think the people down the hall
             F  
Know who you are


[Chorus]
G                Am   
Careful what you carry
                  Dm7 
'cause the man is wise
                 Em7       Dm7       
You are still an outlaw in their eyes
              Em7       Dm7        
Get along get along Kid Charlemagne
    Em7                  
Get along Kid Charlemagne
