Billy Joel - Big Shot: chords

              Esus4                  G
Well you went uptown riding in your limousine
          Esus4              G
With your fine Park Avenue clothes
            Esus4                 D6
You had the Dom Perignon in your hand
                       C   F/C C
And the spoon up your nose
             Esus4                             G
And when you wake up in the morning With your head
on fire
         Esus4               G
And your eyes too bloody to see
          Esus4                   D6
Go on and cry in your coffee but don't
                  C F/C C
Come bitchin' to me

Chorus:
                        G/F F/C   G/F    F/C
Because you had to be a big shot, didn't you
           G/F  F/C     G/F
You had to open up your mouth
                 G   F/D   G     F/D
You had to be a big shot, didn't you
           G          F/D        C
All your friends were so knocked out
    Em7             G/F  F/C   G/F  F/C
You had to have the last word, last night
              G/F  F/C       F
You know what everything's about
                  F/C    C   F/C  C
You had to have a white hot spotlight
    G/C         G/D  D    G/D  D
You had to be a big shot last night

And they were all impressed
With your Halston dress
And the people that you knew at Elaine's
And the story of your latest success
You kept 'em so entertained
But now you just don't
Remember all the things you said
And you're not sure that you want to know
I'll give you one hint, honey
You sure did put on a show

Chorus:
Yes, yes, you had to be
A big shot, didn't cha
You had to prove it to the crowd
You had to be a big shot, didn't cha
All your friends were so knocked out
You had to have the last word, last night
You're so much fun to be around
You had to have the front page, bold type
You had to be a big shot last night

Well, it's no big sin
To stick your two cents in
If you know when to leave it alone
But you went over the line
You couldn't see it was time to go home
No, no, no, no, no, no

Chorus:
You had to be a big shot, didn't cha
You had to open up your mouth
You had to be a big shot, didn't cha
All your friends were so knocked out
You had to have the last word, last night
You're so much fun to be around
You had to have a white hot spotlight
You had to be a big shot last night

Big shot
Big shot
Oh, big shot
Big shot
