[Verse]
D
It was quite early one morning
G
Hit me without warning
D G
I went to hear the general speak
A
I was standing for the anthem
G
Banners all around him
F#m G
Confetti made it hard to see
D
Put my footsteps on the pavement
G
Starved for entertainment
D G
Four seasons of revolving doors
A
So sick of being honest
G
I'll die like Dylan Thomas
F#m G
A seizure on the barroom floor
[Chorus]
D A G
I’m getting greedy with this private hell
D A G
I'll go it alone, but that's just as well
[Verse]
D
These cats are scared and feral
G
The flag pins on their lapels
D G
The truth is anybody’s guess
A
These talking heads are saying
G
"The king is only playing
F#m G
a game of four dimensional chess"
[Solo]

[Verse]
D
There's flowers in the rubble
G
The weeds are gonna tumble
D G
I'm lucid but I still can't think
A
I'm strapped into a corset
G
Climbed into your corvette
F#m G
I'm thirsty for another drink
D
If it's advertised, we'll try it
G
And buy some peace and quiet
D G
And shut up at the silent retreat
A
They say you’ve gotta fake it
G
At least until you make it
F#m G
That ghost is just a kid in a sheet
[Chorus]
D A G
I’m getting used to these dizzy spells
D A G
I'm taking a shower at the Bates Motel
D A G
I’m getting greedy with this private hell
D A G
I'll go it alone, but that's just as well
