B-side to 'Black Coffee In Bed', 1982


C5
Give a man a gun, give him a cigar

He'll think about a shot sitting at a bar

Strip him of his clothes, stand him in the light

Sweat upon his brow, frightened by the sight


E5              G5    B5             F5
Draw him like a bow, aim him at the world
C5              Eb5       D5                         F5
He pretends to know and then he'll swim up to the rocks
         C5
He'll be beaten by the fox


C5
Give a man a drink, give a man the time

Drink into his thoughts bottled up inside

He'll tell a few jokes, stumble in the dark

Trips upon the stairs, he's fallen apart


E5              G5    B5             F5
Draw him like a bow, aim him at the world
C5              Eb5       D5                         F5
He pretends to know and then he'll swim up to the rocks
         C5
He'll be beaten by the fox


E5 G5 B5 F5 E5 G5 B5 D5
