Intro: Eb
 
(Verse 1)
Eb
Let's descend through fog and rain
    Ab                              Eb
And see if we can find the same way out
              Ab
Of this whole mess
 Eb
Its not as if we'd lose our lives
        Ab                            Eb
Or be impaled by carving knives just yet
          Ab
No, not unless

(Chorus 1)
    Ab              Bb
We sign the dotted line
      Ab                     Bb
So everything will turn out fine

(Verse 2)
       Eb
Let's just disregard what makes us tick
     Ab                               Eb
And act as if we're really thick and slow 
          Ab
taking a hand

(Chorus 2)
     Ab              Bb
and sign the dotted line
      Ab                     Bb
So everything will turn out fine

(Post Chorus 1)
    G                             Ab
And if its not what it appears to be
                              G
We'll get down on our bended knees
                                 Ab
And lick the shit of which they stand
           Bb
Until it shines. 
 
(Verse 3)
     Eb
Let's go away to somewhere new 
       Ab                            Eb
where people haven't got a clue and blend 
          Ab
into the crowd
 
(Chorus 3)
     Ab              Bb
And sign the dotted line
     Ab                      Bb
So everything will turn out fine
 
(Post Chorus 2)
    G                                 Ab
And if its not what its cracked up to be
                           G
?We'll sit in sick so passively?
                                  Ab
We'll smile and nod and be well dressed
            Bb
For our decline
