[Verse 2]
G        Em
Glance, don't stare
Bm                         C
Soon you're being told to recognize your heirs
G             Em      Bm             C
No, not me -- I'm an island of such great complexity
G           Em           Bm             C
Stress surrounds in the muddy peaceful center of this town
G     Em         Bm             C
Tell me off in the hotel lobby right in front of all the bellboys and the
over-friendly concierge
 
[Chorus]
G      Em        Bm       C
A shady lane, everybody wants one
G       Em        Bm       C
A shady lane, everybody needs one
C         Am          G          D
Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god
C         Am         G              D
Oh my god, oh your god, oh his god, oh her god
C        Am        G                D
It's everybody's god, it's everybody's god, it's everybody's god, it's
everybody's god
                              C    D      C
The worlds collide, but all that I want is a shady lane.

I think there's a Dmaj quick change during the "your life" part and the last two syllables of "concierge." Other than that, it's terrific!

Pretty good, but in your chord chart the second chord is not c/g but cadd9: x32033. There is no g in the bass there.
