A while ago someone posted a request for this, so here it is:



Intro(which is like the chorus)



Bb  Eb | Bb  Eb F|   x4



Lyric

G          D           Bb          F

Got out of bed, wasn't feeling too good

                      C           Cm          Bb

With my wallet and my passport, a new pair of shoes

G           D            Bb          F

The sun was shining so I head for the park

                     C        Cm           Bb

With a bottle of tequila and a new pack of cigarrettes



I got a cousin, and sge got a friend

Who thought that her aunt knew a man who could help

At his apartment, I knock on the door

He wouldn't come out until he got paid



Pre-chorus

    Bb    Eb       Bb    Eb   Bb    Eb

Now don't tell anybody what I wanna do

    Bb    Eb   Bb  Eb                   Eb            Bb      Eb

If they find out, you know that they'll never let me through



Chorus

Bb      Eb    Bb Eb   F  Bb     Eb   Bb  Eb  F

Cos it's no fun being an illegal alien     (X2 or however many you feel like)



Down at the office had to fill out the forms

A pink one, a red one, the colours you choose

Up to the counter to see what they think, they said,

"It doesn't count, man, it aint written in ink"



I don't trust anybody, least not around here

(Chorus)



Lead in to bridge (the keyboard solo)

Bb (2 bars)  Ab(2 bars)

           An illegal alien, OK

Bridge (background chords)  whole phrase x2

G(no 3rd)  2 bars   G(no 3)/C  2 bars  G(no 3)/Eb 1 bar

G(no 3)/D  G(no 3)/F  half bar each



D             G

Consideration for your fellow man

          C             D7sus4

Would not hurt anybody, sure fits in with my plan

Where everything comes easy, you just hold out your hand



there's a bit where the chords are Bm | Em  |D  |A  |  x2



then back to pre-chorus and chorus. Lyrics I left out can be found

at uwp among other places.



Enjoy!
