[E] [Em]
I listened to her lecture of nonsense till dawn
By [Bm] plagiary poet with dark glasses on
You said, [Am] how did you ever dream up that song?
The [Bm] one where [B] the baby [Em] dies
I said, I'll tell you the secret which one's your good year
[Bm] Yeah, people are made up of water and fear
If [Am] there weren't women present we wouldn't be here
[Bm] So let's make [B] like [Bm] we're friends
[Em] And the pot turns to powder and sour glue
[Bm] And people I've come with were gone from the room
So [Am] I ask like a child may [A] I be excused
[Bm] And [B] disobey them [Em] all
Into that late night latrine rain soaking through my shoes
[Bm] I try walking backwards to get less confused
[Am] Working off a theory I could never [D] prove
That it was life
[B] itself [Em] to blame
[Am] And time ruined the [Em] world
[Am] Like a failed
[Em] revolution
A [Am] tumor we could [Em] not remove
An old [C] friend, a [Bm] constant, the [Em] blues
[Am]
[Bb] [Em]
[Am]
[Em]
[Em] Now my days are [E] distractions sipping in [Em] my hands
[Bm] Solitaire, crosswords, and [C] films on demand
[Am] When you turn from [C] a cartoon back into a man
You [Bm] start to smell that [B] human [Em] smell
So I sleep with the fan on [Gb] to drown out the street
[Bm] And the noise rising up from the bar underneath
[Em] For that inconvenience all my drinks [D] are free
So I [Bm] guess [B] it's just as well
[Em]
Why do I envy the ending right from the start
[Bm] Just get it together to take it apart
[Am] Watching the horn side that follows the car
[Bm] I sweep up my [B] broken [Em] spell
I [Am] felt something change [Em] in the world
Like [Am] a new [Em] constitution
[Am] A thief I would have to [Em] pursue
At all [C] times, at [Bm] all costs
The [Em] truth
