Gm                         Bb           F
Something kind of hit me today, I looked at you and
Dm                      D                     Eb Bb
Wondered if you saw things my way
F                  D              Gm
People will hold us to blame
    Gm7       Eb       C            F
It hit me today, it hit me today
          Gm         Bb               F
We're taking it hard all the time
                                 Dm         D               Eb                       Bb
Why don't we pass it by, just reply you've changed your mind
          F                          D              Gm
We're fighting with the eyes of the blind
Gm7         Eb    C              F            Eb Dm Bb
Taking it hard, taking it hard, yet now
      Ab                     Gb         F                           C
We feel that we are paper, choking on you nightly
         Bb                    Ab                  Gb                       F
They tell me son, we want you, be elusive, but don't walk far
                  C                     Bb            Ab                           Gb
For we're breaking in the new boys, deceive your next of kin
                  F                            C                 Bb             Ab
For you're dancing where the dogs decay, defecating ecstasy
                       Gb             F
You're just an ally of the leecher
C                        Bb                      Ab                     Gb
Locator for the virgin King, but I love you in your fuck me pumps
                 F                         C
And your nimble dress that trails
        Bb                          Ab                     Gb                       F
Oh, dress yourself, my urchin one, for I hear them on the rails
                  C                     Bb             Ab
Because of all we've seen, because of all we've said
Gb              D     C D C
We are the dead

Gm                       Bb                     F
One thing kind of touched me today
                                  Dm             D                    Eb Bb
I looked at you and counted all the times we had laid
F                   D                        Gm
Pressing our love through the night
Gm7              Eb      C                F
Knowing it's right, knowing it's right
Gm                     Bb                   F
Now I'm hoping some one will care
                      Dm             D               Eb     Bb
Living on the breath of a hope to be shared
F                        D                Gm
Trusting on the sons of our love
         Gm7               Eb     C                 F              Eb Dm Bb
That someone will care, someone will care, but now

             Ab                        Gb            F                                      C
We're today's scrambled creatures, locked in tomorrow's double feature
Bb                       Ab             Gb                       F
Heaven's on the pillow, its silence competes with hell
         C                        Bb                    Ab                       Gb
It's a twenty four hour service, guaranteed to make you tell
                 F                         C
And the streets are full of press men
             Bb                        Ab
Bent on getting hung and buried
             Gb               F                  C                        Bb
And the legendary curtains are drawn round Baby Bankrupt
        Ab                                Gb
Who sucks you while you're sleeping
              F                 C
It's the theater of financiers
                     Bb                 Ab
Count them, fifty round a table
Gb                                F
White and dressed to kill
        C                            Bb
Oh caress yourself, my juicy
              Ab                         Gb
For my hands have all but withered
       F                          C                        Bb                       Ab
Oh dress yourself my urchin one, for I hear them on the stairs
                  Gb            F
Because of all we've seen
C                Bb
Because of all we've said
D               C      D
We are the dead
C                D      C D
We are the dead
C                D      C D C
We are the dead

OUTRO: Gm Bb F
