I've got [Eb] to make [Bb] the most Spend all my love [Eb] going for better or [F] worse
[Bb] Standing [Dm] on the [Bb] [Eb] outside and waiting on [Bb] the rain
Standing where I must stop, oh, when they claim
When they sold to the crowd, [Eb] but know what [Bb] they cost
[Dm] Sometimes they [Bb] laughed and [Eb] laughed like nothing [F] was lost
[Bb] Saw hypocrites and parasites [Eb] and people that [Bb] just drained
Tell me, why must [Cm] I always [Bb] explain?
[Dm] Why, why, [Bb] why [Eb] must I [Bb] always explain?
Over and over and over and over, [Eb] over [F] again

But [Bb] I have to play the piper time [Eb] and time [Bb] and time again
Tell me, why must I [Cm]
[Bb] always explain?
Well, it's all out on the highway [Eb] and it's [Bb] on with the soul
