Very simple song, nevertheless it's brilliant.

I'd like to give you this simple fill, which is used in the verse patterns, when 
there's no singing...

[opening fill]

For the rest it's all the same chords

Fame takes down it's clothes
Looks for the smallest of inhabitants
Hell, I suppose
Y'know me I wasn't made for arrogance

Once I was pride
Lived in the sweetest dreams of foolishness
Lines etched on my face
Seek a path but never *I'm too lazy to search the CDs lyrics sheet...*
