Вступление
[Intro]
C#m F#sus4
[Verse 1]
Emaj7
"Baron" you were
Back before we put the knife in
D A
Daily galloping your cause around
E
Manufactured to the hyphen
Emaj7
You made your claims
Ran your hand across our cities
D A
Making enemies and breaking hearts
E
With your wife and your committee
[Chorus]
Bm A E
Oh, was it all necessary?
Bm A E
Oh, give it back, Red Baron!
[Verse 2]
Emaj7
Living a dream
She was manicured in rubies
D A
And he used her as the "Baroness"
E
In the gospel he was proving
Emaj7
And on a roll
You were polishing pretenses
D A
While the rest of us were panicking
E
In the ruins of our defenses
[Chorus]
Bm A E
And oh, was it all necessary?
Bm A E
Oh, give it back, Red Baron!
Bm A E
Oh, was it necessary? Necessary
Bm A E
Oh, give it back, Red Baron
[Instrumental]
Bm F#m A E
Em(maj7)
[Verse 3]
Bm
We sicced a man upon him
Practiced in forgery
G A
Who made a living out of hidden aces
Bm
He battled through the papers
And found the missing ink
G A
To wipe the fables off the Baron's faces
Bm F#m
"Baron, I think that I've made up my mind
A E
You're not the man you've been playing
Em D
See, the shade is not the same
C#
You've written in your name
D B
You'd better start praying it's all a game
D
'Cause I'm gonna put you in the fire!
Em
I've been hired
By the miners
Whom you rag upon
Em
Put your lands up
The game is over
Give it back to Arizona!"
[Verse 4]
Bm
And so the knives were brandished
The cat escaped the bag
G A
And everybody formed a line around him
Bm
They got him on the platform
And raised the banner flag
G A
When from the parlor came a voice resounding
Bm F#m
"Stop what you're doing, can this be for real?
A E
The Baron is nobody's puppet!
Em D
And if he's only fantasy
C#
Then what to do with me?
D B
Maybe I'm just an accessory?
D
I won't be made a method actor!"
Em
No one backed her
She went scrambling
For obscurity
Em
Never shedding
Her persona
"The Baroness of Arizona"
[Verse 5]
Bm Bm/D Bm
Then in the air above them
Bm/F# Bm
Their man began to weep
Bm/D G6 A
They left him praying and the sky was pouring
Bm
And so it all receded
Back into history
G A
The tables turning and the engines roaring
[Instrumental]
Bmaj7 C#sus4 x4
Eb Bb7 x2
[Verse 6]
Ebmaj7
Where do they go
All our misbegotten grifters?
Db Ab
Will they ever find themselves again
Ebmaj7
After all the veils are lifted?
Ebmaj7
The Baron, we're told
Tried his hand at irrigation
Db Ab
But eventually he met his end
Ebmaj7
In the shadows of a nation
And I ask you now:
[Chorus]
Bbm Ab Eb
Oh, was it all necessary?
Bbm Ab Eb
Oh, give it back, Red Baron

Oh, was it necessary? Necessary
Ab Eb
Please, give it back, Red Baron
Give it back, man
[Outro]
Bbm Ab Eb Bbm
Oh, necessary, necessary
Ab Eb
Give it back, Red Baron
Bbm Ab Eb Bbm Ab
Oh, necessary, necessary
Eb
Give it back, give it back, Red Baron
Bbm Ab Eb Bbm
Oh, necessary, necessary
Ab E
Give it back, Red Baron
Bbm Ab Eb Bbm Ab Eb
Oh, necessary, necessary
Bbm Ab Eb Bbm Ab
Oh, necessary, necessary
