  Thinkin' gettin' out of Chicago is just about

The best thing that's ever happened to you
A7                                        
  He's starting like a [Incomprehensible]

  He says Baby I know a good ol' deal
                      G#m7      Bmaj7          E   F#7
Out in West Hollywood     he's just right for you

He ain't no good Samaritan
   B7                               
He   gon' make sure he's reimbursed

[Verse]
                         D      C#7  A
Now when the streets get hungry baby 
C#maj7               Dsus4
You almost hear them growl
Dsus4                            
Someone's setting a place for you
         E                 
When the dogs begin to howl
     A7                     
Well   the streets are dead
              G                                    
They creep up and down when it was left on the pole
E7                              E       
  Remember suckers always make mistakes
             G#m7 G#m       G#m7 G#m C#7
When they're far  away from home      
F#7                 
   Chicken in a pot


[Chorus]
B7                         
  Whoever gets there first
          E7                
Gonna get himself twentynine
A7     E7              B7
And an alligator purse  


[Verse]
E         E7             D        E7
 Now the sirens just an epilogue  
A7               G                         E7
  The cops here always get there too late  
                D     
Always stop for coffee
              E7                     A7
On the way to the scene of the crime  
A7                     
They always try so hard
A7                   
Just like movie stars
E                               
 But they couldn't catch a cold
           G#m7  G#m  C#m7 G#m
Baby don't waste your dime   


[Chorus]
F#7             B7   
   Lucky to be alive
           B7                    
The doctor whispered to the nurse
         E7                       
She only lost a half pint of blood
A7             E    E7             
twentynine and  an alligator purse


[Solo]
B7 E7 Am7 E7 D E7 A7 F#7
                
E D#m G#m7 B7 F#7 B7 E7 A7
                  
E7 B7 E7 D E7 A7 E7 A7
