  • I've been out on this road some
    Can't help feeling I've been showing my friends around
    I've seen it growing from next to nothing
    Into a giant eating up your town
    Called up the tealeaves and the tarots
    Asked the gypsy what she sees in the palm of our hands
    She saw a mountain and wild deer running
    A crazy kid becoming a better man
    But we stuck around for the fireworks
    Waiting to explode
    Shaped our futures, you a tumbleweed
    And me on a yellow brick road
    Pleasing the people some of the time
    For better or for worse
    An urban soul in a fine silk Suit
    And a heart out west in a Wrangler shirt
    [Chorus:]
    And you can't go back and if you try it fails
    Looking up ahead I see a rusty nail
    A sign hanging from it saying "Truth for sale"
    And that's what we did
    No lies at all just one more tale
    About the Captain and the Kid
    We've been missing at times in action
    Can't imagine what he said he might do for you
    The devil got to come to the party sometimes
    But he never got to wear our shoes
    Oh we've conjured up what we created
    Way back then when I was standing up in six-inch heels
    Now you're riding off into the sunset
    And I'm still spinning like a Catherine wheel
    But we stuck around for the battle
    Waiting for a plan
    To turn you into the Brown Dirt Cowboy
    And me into a rocket man
    It pleases the people some of the time
    Digging into our roots
    But I got a brand new pair of shoes
    And you're on a horse in old cowboy boots
    [Chorus 2x]

    Gang, I'm now 50 and I've loved his music since I was 13. It is so wonderful to see others who share the passion. We have a Mozart on our hands. There is no one better breathing today.

    Another fantastic piece; my only wish is we could see more of Elton’s piano playing. Such a great pianist, it would be nice to be able to see his keyboard work more often.

    Do you have "Someone Saved My Life Tonight" from this concert? I'd love to hear it, if possible : ) Thanks!
