This is probably my favourite soung of the album, it's just so sad but uplifting at the same time.

Intro
E B C#m A

        EAnd (022100@1)the moment will come when composure returns
      BPut (x2444x@1)a face on the world, turn your back to the wall
        C#mAnd (x13321@4)you walk twenty yards with your head in the air
         ADown (x02220@1)the Liberty Hill, where the fashion brigade
          ELook (022100@1)with curious eyes on your raggedy way
        BAnd (x2444x@1)for once in your life you've got nothing to say
          C#mAnd (x13321@4)could this be the time when somebody will come
         ATo (x02220@1)say, "Look at yourself, you're not much use to anyone"

E B C#m A

       ETake (022100@1)a walk in the park, take a valium pill
         BRead (x2444x@1)the letter you got from the memory girl
       C#mBut (x13321@4)it takes more than this to make sense of the day
         AYeah, (x02220@1)it takes more than milk to get rid of the taste
        EAnd (022100@1)you trusted to this, and you trusted to that
             BAnd (x2444x@1)when you saw it all come, it was waving the flag
       C#mOf (x13321@4)the United States of Calamity, hey!
      AAfter (x02220@1)all that you've done, boy, I know you're going to pay 

E B C#m Ax2

       EIn (022100@1)the morning you come to the ladies salon
       BTo (x2444x@1)get all fitted out for The Paperback Throne
        C#mBut (x13321@4)the people are living far away from the place
          AWhere (x02220@1)you wanted to help, it's a bit of a waste
        EAnd (022100@1)the puzzle will last until somebody will say
           B"There's (x2444x@1)a lot to be done while your head is still young"
       C#mIf (x13321@4)you put down your pen, leave your worries behind
         AThen (x02220@1)the moment will come, and the memory will shine

        ENow (022100@1)the trouble is over, everybody got paid
     BEverybody (x2444x@1)is happy, they are glad that they came
         C#mThen (x13321@4)you go to the place where you've finally found
        AYou (x02220@1)can look at yourself, sleep the clock around
