F                  C            Dm7                           C
Until you've seen   this trash can dream come true
F                        C              G                         C
You stand at the edge while people run you through
F                             C            F                              C

I thank the lord there's people out there like you

                   C                  Bb
While mona lisas and mad hatters
             F                       C
Sons of bankers, sons of lawyers
C                                                                    F
Turn around and say good morning to the night
       E7                        Am
For unless they see the sky
                            C/G    Am/F#  D  Dsus  D
But they can't and that is why
        F                      G                     F            C
They know not if it's dark outside or light

This broadway's got
It's got a lot of songs to sing
If I knew the tunes I might join in
I'll go my way alone
Grow my own, my own seeds shall be sown in new york city

Subway's no way for a good man to go down
Rich man can ride and the hobo he can drown
And I thank the lord for the people I have found
I thank the lord for the people I have found

It's basically the same chords as the Elton version only with a Capo.
Nancy plays it a little differently, so I had to listen to "Alive In Seattle"
to catch the little differences.  If you see any mistakes please correct!
