E           E7
Got a foot in the door
A             Am
God knows what for
C#m     E      B        D#
And he'll cut me down to size
A            C  B
Stupidity tries

E              E7
Everything here is free
A                  Am
Everything but you and me
C#m  E     B      D#
This painting never dries
A       C    B C
Stupidity tries

C#m      C           G          B
Savannah shoulder raised a cheer
C  C/B ( A ) G    B     C
Coloring the sky with ash
C#m    E        F#           A
Because they found some privateer
C  C/B    ( A )      G           B
To sail across the sea of trash

E            E7
The enemy is within
A              Am
Don't confuse me with him
C#m     E      B        D#
The truth is otherwise
A            C        D

C#m      C           G          B
And so I go from floor to floor
C  C/B ( A ) G    B      C
Looking for a port of call
C#m    E        F#           A
Another drunk conquistador
C  C/B ( A ) G    B
Conquering the governor's ball

E             E7
Couldn't think of a thing
A                Am
That I hope tomorrow brings
C#m  E     B      D#
Oh what a surprise
A            C        D
Stupidity tries
