Am C
With a venom in my veins
D F
And no money to my name
Am C D E
I'm on my way to join a circus that they call Hell-A
F C
To be a star of stage and screen
D Am
I sold my soul for magic beans
F C
Now I'm as empty as the pockets
D E
Of my skin tight jeans.
F
But my hunger makes me bend my back
D
Like a licorice cane acrobat
F
There's a constellation with my name
D
In the Hollywood boulevard of fame
F
In Los Angeles they understand
D E Am
I'm the Buckled Knees of a broken man.
verse 2
Am C
So to the devil I adhered
D F
And with my soul he disappeared
Am C
But I never will forget the words
D E
He whispered in my ear
F C
He said "Fame is a ball and chain
D Am
That you'll carry to your grave
F C
A soul shaped hole in your heart
D E
Is like a bullet to your brain".
F
But my hunger makes me bend my back
D
Like a licorice cane acrobat
F
There's a constellation with my name
D
In the Hollywood boulevard of fame
F
In Los Angeles they understand
D E Am
I'm the Buckled Knees of a broken man.
verse 3
Am C
Well I thought my life was made
D F
A Hollywood superstar cliche
Am C
But I'm just a hollow trophy
D E
With a thin gold plate
F C
And all the starlight that I sought
D Am
Was just a spinning disco ball
F C
Now I'm as fractured as the light
D E
Of its mirrors on the wall.
F
But my hunger makes me bend my back
D
Like a licorice cane acrobat

There's a constellation with my name
D
In the Hollywood boulevard of fame

D E Am
I'm the Buckled Knees of a broken man.
