Intro: D

D
When Lenin was little

All the birds in the forest were singing, "Man, this is it!"

But now that he's older
                                                               C#            
All the sailors in the heaven are screaming, "Abandon ship!"

Chorus:
                   F#
I know it can't be right
                   B
I know it can't be right
                 F#
But I just smile instead
                    G
Of repeating what I said
      D
In my head

D
When Lenin was little

Dressed up like a vampire on 'All Hallow's Eve'

All the saints up in heaven
                                                        C#
Were looking down at the leaves falling from the trees

Chorus:
                   F#
I know it can't be right
                   B
I know it can't be right
                 F#
But I just smile instead
                    G
Of repeating what I said

                     D                       G
Daddy, daddy, please save the world from the government
                     D                        G                      
Daddy, daddy, please save my soul from my own judgement
                     D                                  G
Daddy, daddy, please send me a heart that isn't made of cement
                             D     C#
Because the money's all been spent

Daddy, daddy, please save my soul from my own judgement
                     D                                  G

Because the money's all been spent
                             G
Because the money's all been spent

                             G
Because the money's all been spent
