[E] [E7] [F#m] amount of oil that it takes to make a record. [B] All the shipping, the vinyl, the cellophane lining... [E] [E7] the high gloss. The tape and the gear. [A] [A] Try not to become too consumed with what's a criminal... [E] [E7] [F#m] volume of oil that it takes to paint a portrait. [B] The acrylic, the varnish, aluminum tubes filled... [E] [E7] with latex. The solvents and dye. Ohh oh ohh. *************** CHORUS 1 *************** [F#m] [E] [E7] [E/C#] [[ch]E/C[/ch]] [E] Lets just call this what it is. [A] [A/F] [F#m] The jealous side of mankind's death wish. [F#m7] [B7] When it's my time to go?

[A] [A/F] [F#m] The jealous side of mankind's death wish. [F#m7] [B7] When it's my time to go? [E] [E7] [A] [A/F] I'm gonna leave behind things that won't decompose. Ohh oh ohh. [F#m] [E] [E7] [E/C#] [[ch]E/C[/ch]] [E] I'll just call this what it is. [A] [A/F] [F#m] A vanity gone wild with a crisis. [F#m7] [B7] One day this all will repeat. [E] [E7] [A] I sure hope they make something useful out of me.
