Vienna - Billy Joel

[Intro]

| Gaug     | B7   C   | Cm/Eb D7   | G        |
 
[Verse 1]
Em               G
   Slow down you crazy child
       D                 F
You're so ambitious for a juvenile
            C                      G
But then if you're so smart tell me why
                   A    B9sus4  B
Are you still so afraid
 
Em                              G
   Where's the fire, what's the hurry about
          D                       F
You better cool it off before you burn it out
        C
You got so much to do and only
G                  F#m   B9sus4  B
So many hours in a day
 
 
[Chorus]
 
C                            D
   But you know that when the truth is told
             G            Bm/F#
That you can get what you want
           Em        G/D
Or you can just get old
            C                   F#m7       B7   Em7      A7
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through
              Eb7
When will you realize
D                  G
  Vienna waits for you
 
[Verse 2]

Em                  G
   Slow down you're doing fine
             D
You can't be everything you want to be
  F
Before your time
              C                G             A        B9sus4  B
Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight, tonight
 
Em                      G
   Too bad but it's the life you lead
           D
You're so ahead of yourself
            F
That you forgot what you need
               C
Though you can see when you're wrong
             G                            F#m           B9sus4 B
You know you can't always see when you're right, you're ri  -   ight
 
 
[Chorus]

    C                           D
    You got your passion, you got your pride
        G                  Bm/F#      Em        G/D
    But don't you know that only fools are satisfied
    C                      F#m7           B7      Em7   A7
    Dream on, but don't imagine they'll all come true
                Eb7
    When will you realize
    D             G
    Vienna waits for you

[Chorus]
 
C                D
   Slow down you crazy child
             G            Bm/F#
And take the phone off the hook
         Em          G/D
And disappear for a while
C                         F#m7           B7    Em7   A7
   It's alright, you can afford to lose a day or two
              Eb7
When will you realize
D             G
  Vienna waits for you
 
C                            D
   And you know that when the truth is told
             G            Bm/F#
That you can get what you want
           Em        G/D
Or you can just get old
            C                   F#m7     B7     Em7      A7
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through
              Eb7
Why don't you realize
D            G
  Vienna waits for you
