[A] [E] [D]
[A] Saw the railway [Bm] master and [F#m] looked him in [C#] the [C#m] eye
He [D] said, would you go [A] much faster if [G] you thought that you [D] was dying?
He [A] said, not me sir, [Bm] I could not care, [F#m] the actor would [C#m] not try
A [D] protest would [A] not take me far, [G] much different me [D] not being a star
[B] Lock my feelings in a jar, [D] until [A] another day
Oh
[D] [A] comfort me [Bm] dear brother, [F#m] would you tell me [C#] what you [C#m] know?
[D] Somewhere in [A] this paper world [G] is a place where I [D] can go
[A] Oh long [Bm] awaited mother, [F#m] is it time to make [C#m] a show?
[D] And take your [A] babies to your breast, [G] though we [D] never pass the test
[B] All our sins should be confessed, [D] before we [A] carry on
[E] Oh [Bm] don't refuse me, [G] if you choose me [D] you'll [A] follow my shame
[E] No, don't [Bm] refuse me, for [G] I know it's [D] the name of [A] the game
[D]
[A] Cut off my [Bm] fiddle, and [F#m] I looked up at [C#m] the sun
[D] Since you can see [A] quite clearly [D] now, [G] the things that we [D] have done
[A] We have burned your [Bm] sacred willow, and [F#m] our battles we [C#m] have won
[D] But did we get [A] so very far, [G] much different me not [D] being a star
[B] Lock my feelings in a jar, [D] until they go [A] away
[E] Oh [Bm] don't refuse me, [G] if you choose [D] me you'll [A] follow my shame
[E] No, [Bm] don't confuse me, for [G] I know it's [D] the name of [A] the game
[E] Oh [Bm] don't refuse me, [G] if you choose [D] me you'll follow [A] my shame
