Wake up in the morning you feel out of plAmace
You're a disgrace
Once mGmore with resigFsus4na-----CtionF

As you wash through the streets of this phony old town
It's wearing you down

In neat little rows
On the flGmoor of my hoFsus4tel    CroomF

And I'd say I was Antony begging at your door
But I know that you'd laugh and just ask me what foGm7r
                                             C*
And then just roll your eyes as I fell the floor
And swear that I'm yours
