Вступление
[Intro]
D Em D/F# G A (x2)
[Verse 1]
D Em D/F# G A
My neighbor got cancer and took his life
D Em D/F# G A
Never knew his name, never spoke to his wife
D Em D/F# G A
The obit in the paper didn't shed no light
D Em D/F# G A
Did they like to go dancing, did the meet on a Friday night or
[Chorus]
D A G
Did he used to be someone in Tulsa
Bm A G
Did everyone that mattered know his name
D A G
'Cuz now he's buried on that hill just like everybody else
Bm A G
I guess we all end up the same
[Instrumental]
D Em D/F# G A (x2)
[Verse 2]
D Em D/F# G A
She came from south of I-40, but you'd never know
D Em D/F# G A
Just a hint of an accent, she set the room aglow
D Em D/F# G A
Met a prep school catholic, rich enough to skip the war
D Em D/F# G A
They had a little bit of money, but she wanted a little more
[Chorus]
D A G
She wanted to be someone in Tulsa
Bm A G
For everyone that mattered know her name
D A G
Before she's buried on that hill just like everybody else
Bm A G
She knows we all end up the same
[Instrumental]
D Em D/F# G A (x2)
[Verse 3]
D Em D/F# G A
She climbed the social ladder, paid a fortune for her hair
D Em D/F# G A
He drank a lot of Old Charter, in a black wing backed chair
D Em D/F# G A
They had friends in oil, she didn't talk about what he did
D Em D/F# G A
They had a little bit of money, but she wanted a little more
[Chorus]
D A G
She used to be someone in Tulsa
Bm A G
Everyone that mattered know her name
D A G
She set herself apart from everybody else
Bm A G
But do we all end up the same
[Bridge]
G A D
Our lives go by like a vapor
G A D
Like Steel Wheels or the morning paper
G A Bm A G
What we leave behind, isn't measured in gold
G A Bm A G
And we don't decide, how our story's told
[Instrumental]
D Em D/F# G A (x2)
[Verse 4]
D Em D/F# G A
He died at sixty and the widowers circled round
D Em D/F# G A
She married the richest one, moved to a penthouse downtown
D Em D/F# G A
Graceful 'til the end, but the end came anyway
D Em D/F# G A
Ask around enough and you'll probably hear someone say
[Chorus]
D A G
Did she used to be someone in Tulsa
Bm A G
Did everyone that mattered know her name
D A G
'Cuz now she's buried on that hill just like everybody else
Bm A G D
I guess we all end up the same
