[E] [Em]
What's there to lose, said the General, [C#m] selling a dead [C] meat by the [Em] pound?
Accidents of existence [D] will make us all [A] feel duty bound
[Em] To send along their one or [C] two, pursue a [A] new curriculum
[Em] With stinky fingers, takes a [D] chair, grumpy, [C] taunty, taunt
[Em] Bar is opened up for [A] me, I think [C] again and then [Em] decline
The need be not so great if [D] I'll descend in [F#m] perfect peace of [Em] mind
Consider childish [C] dreams a matter [A] of necessity
[Em] I screw myself to [D] the point of my [C] life's expectancy
[Em] I'll take all your chances, [A] world, her egg will [C] burst and will I [Em] lie?
A man who calls his own dream, [D] thinking it's so [A] good to be [Em] alive
Says envy's are the best, what [C] are the rest to [A] be like?
As for [Em] me, I struggle with words and with them
[D] Accusing is you, it's [F] me, it's finnicky
[Em] For all I know is coming [A] fast to [C] canonise my [Em] infancy
The space is clean but in [D] between it's covered [A] with [Em] anxiety
The failing clause is [C] victory, complete with [A] words it's hard to [Em] see
But after [E] all it's over [D] and I will soon [C] prove variety
[Em] The things indeed, if all I [A] need to show they [C] do
An open [Em] door, I can only trust [D] myself
I should have [A] thought of that [Em] before
I need a catch before [C] I iron [A] [Em] [F#] [B] my brows too
