     D
You hate, you scream, you swear
                    Bm
And still you never reach him
     D
You curse, you try to scare
                   Bm
But you can never teach him

                 F#m
It's a dead end street
      G                  A        D
They tie your hands and tie your feet
Bm                F#m
And the street is narrow
   G
A nowhere lane
A nowhere train for

  D
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
                       Bm
You know they're gonna get you
      D
You try to break away
                    Bm
But they will never let you

Chorus:
                F#m
It's a dead end street
      G                  A        D
They tie your hands and tie your feet
Bm                F#m
And the street is narrow
   G
A nowhere lane
A nowhere train for
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
 Bm     D      F#m     D    Bm
You're like a goldfish in a bowl
D
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
 Bm   D         F#m           D         Bm
They have your mind, they'll take your soul

     D
You come, you stay, you go
                  Bm
It really doesn't matter
        D
You've done it all before
                         Bm
By now they'll know the pattern

Chorus

D                           G                 D
Now that you're gone, you know they're gonna get you
                            G                         D
Now that you're gone, you know they'll never let you go


Chorus

Now that you're gone, you know they're gonna get you
Now that you're gone, you know they'll never let you go
