Chasing The Crown Lyrics

by Elton JohnAlbum: 21 at 33·1980

Chasing The Crown Lyrics

I Built A Wall In China,
I Sank An Ocean Liner
I’ve Wrecked Homes,
I’ve Burned Thrones,
Chasing The Crown
I’ve Put Thorns In Your Feet,
I Spread Plague In The Streets
I’ve Sprung Traps,
Confused Maps, Chasing The Crown

Chasing The Crown Till
He Bites The Apple
I Was Licking My Lips
Till His Son Come Down
I’m Chasing The Crown,
Crown, I’m Chasing The Crown
I’m Taking A Turn In
The Right Direction
By Leaving His Soul In
The Lost And Found
I’m Chasing The Crown
I’m Chasing The Crown

I Saw The Tea Float In Boston,
I Saw The Live Wire Shock ’em
I Made Them Float,
I Made Them Drown,
Chasing The Crown
I Laid The Desert Sands,
I Froze The Polar Caps
Well, They’d Dry Out,
And I’d Shout, “hey,
I’m Chasing The Crown”

Chasing The Crown Till
He Bites The Apple
I Was Licking My Lips
Till His Son Come Down
Chasing The Crown, Crown,
I’m Chasing The Crown
I’m Taking A Turn In
The Right Direction
By Leaving His Soul In
The Lost And Found
I’m Chasing The Crown
Chasing The Crown, Heeey

Heeey
I’m Chasing The Crown Till
He Bites The Apple
I Was Licking My Lips Till
His Son Come Down
I’m Chasing The Crown, Crown,
I’m Chasing The Crown
I’m Taking A Turn In
The Right Direction
By Leaving His Soul In
The Lost And Found
I’m Chasing The Crown
I’m Chasing The Crown

I Built A Wall In China,
I Sank An Ocean Liner
I’ve Wrecked Homes,
I’ve Burned Thrones,
Chasing The Crown
I’ve Put Thorns In Your Feet,
I Spread Plague In The Streets
I’ve Sprung Traps, Confused Maps,
Chasing The Crown

I Saw The Tea Float In Boston,
I Saw The Live Wire Shock ’em
Made Them Float,
Made Them Drown,
Chasing The Crown
I Built A Wall
I Built A Wall In China

I’m Chasing The Crown
