[D]
[Em] [C]
[G] [D]
[Em] [C]
[G] You really [D] think that innocence [Em] is just a word
[G] [D] When you smile at me [Em] it seems [C] so absurd
[G] You're so [D] full of ambition,
[Em] pride [C] and desire
[G] If I told you [D] it's a meaningless [Em] word
You'd call me [C] a liar
[Am] [D] and it don't [G] mean a thing
Record [D] company mogul [Em] queuing [C] in your room
[G] Makes you [D] so excited, [Em] it makes you swoon
[C]
[G] You trip [D] like fantastic and [Em] think you [C] are the queen
[G] Then [D] somebody tells you [Em] that you can't [C] even sing
[Am] And [D] it don't mean [G] a thing
I'll miss you [D] like a matchbox,
[Em] sky knife in [C] my face
[G] Blast your [D] marbles long ago [Em] and now you're up in [C] space
[G] The prison [D] warden's ghetto [Em] blasters making quite a noise
[G] Well, the day you [D] lost everything you [Em] lost your [C] equipoise
[Am] [D] Don't mean a [G] thing
[Am] And [D] it don't mean [G] a thing
