D (xx0232@1) F (133211@1) GBut (320003@1)the money's no good, just get a grip on yourself
G (320003@1)Suffering convictions on a two way stretch inside
F (133211@1) C (x32010@1) GThe (320003@1)air in here in pretty thin, I think I'll go outside
G (320003@1)Committed for insanity and crimes against the soul
F (133211@1) C (x32010@1) GThe (320003@1)worst crime that I ever did was play some rock'n'roll
