   Hello Jay:
   Love your music – I’m a campfire guitarist at best. Would love to learn the chords to “Lily” as I haven’t been able to find them anywhere.
   My daughters (7 & 11) & I have “Lily” in our “stuck in traffic” sing along songs & it’s a hoot to hear them sing “living is easy when you live in the city of sin.” Haven’t introduced them to Chaka Khan yet – great lyrics.
   If/when you find the time would much appreciate it.
   Thanks for the great music.
   Pete

     Hey Pete. Thanks for the message my friend. Warms me up knowing about the sing-along.

     Here are the chords to that song. Best to use a Capo on the 3rd fret but you can sing it with this progression in any key you like. Take care… JS

     LILY

     C
     In the morning, I got a pretty good start
     C
     I’m not the best with the words but I got a big heart
     C
     I rolled over, luckily my jeans beside the bed
     C F
     I rolled back, kissed the girl on her head… Good-bye
     F C F
     She was only wearing a smile so I remember it was hard to say good-bye
     F G F C
     but I did it… oh Lily don’t cry

     C
     Chaka Khan filled the hallways of the casino
     I made my way from the room to the camino
     I’m a stranger in a strange world
     This Las Vegas is a circus as I’m sure you’ve heard
     F C
     So good-bye to that girl in room eleven twenty five
     F G F C
     Good-bye… oh Lily don’t cry

     F
     Out the door and out in the parking lot
     C
     The day gets simpler, just try and get out of the hot
     F
     Crack the window, get out on the highway
     C
     Barstow in an hour then I’m on to L.A.
     G
     Faster then lightning, come on baby you can win
     F C
     Leaving is easy when you’re leaving the city of sin

     C
     Back home, I’ll draw a picture for yah
     A backyard barbecue with a wife and a daughter
     This is life in L.A. my friend and I’ll do what I want
     F C
     Again and again and again, cause I’m an American
     G F C G F C
     oh I’m sure Lily doesn’t mind… Oh until maybe next time

     F C
     Lily gets me on the phone, says “I don’t want to cry no more!”
     F C
     “I’m tired of you going back to your wife and treating me like a whore”
     So I said…
     G
     Faster then lightning, come on baby you can win
     F C
     Leaving is easy when you’re leaving the city of sin
     G
     Faster then lightning, come on baby you can win
     F C
     Leaving is easy when you’re leaving the city of sin
