When [Dm] you [Am7] require [Gm7] [Am7]
streetcar desire for[Dm] [Am7] higher [Gm7] [Am7] heights
[Gm7] No place for [Am7] beginners or sensitive [Dm] hearts [Dm/Db] [Am7/C] [Am7/B]
[Gm7] When sentiment [Am7] is left to [Dm] chance
[Gm7] No place to be [Am7] ending but somewhere to [Dm] start
No need to ask

[Dm] smooth [Am7] [Gm7] operator [Am7]
[Dm] Coast to[Am7] coast, [Gm7] LA to [Am7] Chicago,
[Dm] western[Am7] [Gm7] male [Am7]

Verse:
[Dm] Face to [Am7] face, [Gm7] [Am7] each [Dm] classic [Am7] case[Gm7] [Am7]
We [Dm] shadow [Am7] box and [Gm7] double [Am7] cross,
Yet [Dm] need the [Am7] chase [Gm7] [Am7]
[Gm7] A license to [Am7] love, insurance to[Dm] hold
[Gm7] Melts all your [Am7] memories and change into [Dm] gold
[Gm7] His eyes are like [Am7] angels but his heart is[Dm] cold
No need to ask
