Am                     C
    If you gave me a fresh carnation,
G                             Bb
    I would only crush its' tender petals,
Am                      C
    With me you'll have no escape,
G                                        Bb
    And, at the same time, there'll be nowhere to settle!


Gm    Gm(maj7) Gm7      Gm6        Cm7
    I trample  down all life in my wake,
         D7                Bm
I eat it up, and take the cake,
            E7                  Am
I just a - vert my eyes to the pain,
              D7              Am
Of someone's loss helping my gain!


Am                     C
    If you gave me a dream for my pocket,
G                             Bb
    You'd be plugging in the wrong socket,
Am                       C
    With me, there's no room for the future,
G                        Bb
    With me, there's no room with a view at all!


Gm     Gm(maj7)  Gm7   Gm6          Cm7
   I am  out of season all-- year 'round,
               D7               Bm
The machinery roar to my empty sound,
          E7                   Am
Touch my heart, and feel win - ter,
         D7                        Cm
Hold my hand, and be doomed for - ever!

    With me, there's no room with a view at all!


Gm              Gm(maj7)  Gm7    Gm6       Cm7
   And if you're wonder - ing by now who I am,
          D7   D7sus4     Bm               E7                Am
Look no further than the mirror, because I am the greed and fear,
            D7             Cm
And every ounce of hate in you!
