Standard (EADGBE)

x2

Oh, the Milky Way has gone a little sour

The leaves dried and the flower fell away

I've been sitting, waitin' for a sign

In human beings taking up all-a my time

Chorus

Wanna leave, but I got to stay

And I'm wonderin' more ev'ry day

Montreal to Hong Kong, where have all the good people gone?

Traffic jam, but I'm on the shoulder, took ten cops to pull me over

Bangkok to Babylon, Where have all the good people gone?

Haven't made a friend in a long, long while

(They) don't check my head, but they, they check my style

The modern world is a cold, cold world

And all I need are cold, cold girls

Chorus

[hold the D as D7, then play intro for a while]

Oh, the Milky Way has gone a little sour

The leaves dried and the flower fell away

Chorus x2

[Last line of second chorus:]

Times up and we're running long, Where have all the good people gone?

[hold the D as D7, then play intro for a while]
