intro -  C

         Dm    G            C
A funny pilgrim on a crazy crusade
         Dm    G                     C
a saucy chaucer, a sorry chapter mislaid
G                  Am          F                                C
whittled with an exacto-knife plumb right thru my load-bearing wall
     F                    C
im horrified now i could do such a thing
        Dm                G
but i thought i saw the singer
                 F                    C
ive heard those chimes so many other times
              Dm              C
but if i gave in it had to've been
              F                     C
i whupped it out and destroyed my selfish cocoon
             Dm                C
since i gave in it had to've been
           Dm       G                C
'n' i gave in , i hope it had to've been
G          Am          F        C
im not an optomist... im not a realist
 F            C                  Dm       G
i might be a sub-realist  but i cant substantiate
        Dm         Em        F         
it was bigger than me and i felt like a sick child 
              G                   C
dragged by a donkey   thru the myrtle
