Tom: G5
 
G5
I ask you nicely
                    D5     E5      F5  C5
Get my face slapped under wraps
G5
What's going on precisely
                   D5        E5
Is there something wrong perhaps?
C5         D5  G5    
Surprise, surprise (surprise, surprise)
D5 C5                D5 G5         D5               E5  D5
    It's more like a booby trap than a booby prize
G5                                        D5     E5     F5 C5
Civil disobedience from a soldier with a dirty rifle
G5                                                    D5     E5
You're loosening all the screws that hold the hinges of my life
C5         D5 G5
Fat cats and army brats
C5        D5 G5       D5              E5       F5 C5
Hep cats in dog tag pawing over girly mags

Chorus:
G5                  F5            B5  C#5  D5  E5
Pretty words don't mean much anymore
G5                  Bb5                E5 F#5 
I don't mean to be mean much anymore
G5             C5
All I see are snapshots, bigshots, tender spots

(1) mug shots, machine slots

(2) machine slots, mug shots

'Till you don't know what's what
                             E5 F5 C5
You don't know what you got
G5                              D5    E5  F5 C5
Curious women running after curious men
G5
Curiosity didn't kill the cat
         D5        E5
It was a poisoned pen
C5               D5  G5                      D5
But there's not much choice (it's Hobson's choice)
C5       D5 G5          D5              E5   D5 
Between a cruel mouth and a jealous voice
G5
Got back to London
               D5        E5
Picked a paper from the man
G5
No words of consolation
                  D5      E5
Just cartoons and titter tatter
C5         D5 G5
Well well, fancy that
C5                 D5 G5                C5
Millions murdered for a kiss me quick hat
             G5
No backbone, blood and guts
D5                   E5     F5
Better keep your big mouth shut

**Chorus
F5              C5             G5
You don't know what you got . . . .
