Standard (EADGBE)

Didn't have a guitar with me when I put the chord symbols over the words.

You may need to make some slight adjustments to these positions.

The intro riff can also be played up around the nineth fret if you like.

Verse 1

 I said beautiful people, they got a Robert Palmer T-shirt in their travel bag

Beautiful people, they've got a price upon their head

 I said beautiful people, have got some friends who just flew in from L.A. yeah

Beautiful people, they haven't really much to say.

Chorus

 I said people, they just want to take you

People, they just want to make you

People, they just want to bring you down, they just want to take you down

Verse 2

 I said beautiful people, they ride two hundred dollar push-bikes in the park

Beautiful People, they won't admit it but they make love in the dark

Beautiful people, snap frozen potted palms in the corner of the living room

Beautiful people, the art deco sonic boom

Chorus

Instrumental

Verse 3

Beautiful people, you know they're going out tonight to get their Bombay rocks off

Beautiful people, they've got Kerouac condition, got a cocaine cough

Beautiful people, studio 54 is the only place to dance

Beautiful People, you know the garden's full of furniture the house is full of plants
