[Intro]
Bb Bbaug Gm Ebm
Bb F Bb F/A
[Verse]
Gm Bb
Slow down you crazy child
F Ab
You're so ambitious for a juvenile
Eb Bb
But then if you're so smart tell me why
C/E Dsus4 D
Are you still so afraid
Gm Bb
Where's the fire, what's the hurry about
F Ab
You better cool it off before you burn it out
Eb
You got so much to do and only
Bb Am Dsus4 D
So many hours in a day
[Chorus]
Eb F
But you know that when the truth is told
Bb F/A
That you can get what you want
Gm Bb/F
Or you can just get old
Eb C7 D7 Gm C7
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through
Gb
When will you realize
F Bb F/A
Vienna waits for you
[Verse 2]
Gm Bb
Slow down you're doing fine
F
You can't be everything you want to be
Ab
Before your time
Eb Bb C/E Dsus7 D
Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight, tonight
Gm Bb
Too bad but it's the life you lead
F
You're so ahead of yourself
Ab
That you forgot what you need
Eb
Though you can see when you're wrong
Bb C/E Dsus4 D
You know you can't always see when you're right, you're right
[Chorus 2]
Eb F
You got your passion, you got your pride
Bb F/A Gm Bb/F
But don't you know that only fools are satisfied
Eb C/E D7 Gm7 C7
Dream on, but don't imagine they'll all come true
Gb
When will you realize
F Bb F/A
Vienna waits for you
[Interlude]
Gm Bb F Ab Eb Bb C/E Dsus4 D
[Chorus 3]
Eb F
Slow down you crazy child
Bb F/A
And take the phone off the hook
Gm Bb/F
And disappear for a while
Eb Am7 D7 Gm7 C7
It's alright you can afford to lose a day or two
Gb
When will you realize
F Bb
Vienna waits for you
Eb F
And you know that when the truth is told
Bb F/A
That you can get what you want
Gm Bb/F
Or you can just get old
Eb Am7 D7 Gm7 C7
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through

Vienna waits for you

When will you realize

Vienna waits for you
(originally by Billy Joel)
Slow down, you crazy child
You're so ambitious for a juvenile
But then if you're so smart
Tell me why are you still so afraid, hmm?
Where's the fire, what's the hurry about?
You'd better cool it off before you burn it out
If you've got so much to do
And only so many hours in a day, ayy
But you know that when the truth is told
That you can get what you want or you can just get old
You're gonna kick-off before you even get halfway through, ooh
When you realize Vienna waits for you?
Slow down, you're doing fine
You can't be everything you wanna be before your time
Although it's so romantic
On the borderline tonight, tonight
It's too bad but it's the life you lead
You're so ahead of yourself that you forgot what you need
Though you can see when you're wrong
You know you can't always see when you're right, you're right
You've got your passion, you've got your pride
But don't you know that only fools are satisfied
Dream on, but don't imagine they all come true, ohh
When you realize Vienna waits for you? Ohh-ooh!
Slow down, you crazy child
And take the phone off the hook and disappear for a while
It's all-, all right, you can afford to lose a day or two, ooh
When you realize Vienna waits for you?
And you know that when the truth is told
That you can get what you want or you could just get old
You're gonna kick-off before you even get halfway through, ooh
Why don't you realize Vienna waits for you?
When will you realize Vienna waits for you?
