[Verse 1]
I've been siCnking into soC/Bmething
Without thiFnking about the duFmmb thing
[Chorus]
'Cause what's the poDmint in always doing what you're toGld
But what's the poDmint in always doing what you're toGld
[Verse 2]
We spend tCoo long fighting dC/Bemons
But you woFn't change the odds to Fmevens
[Chorus]
So what's the poDmint in always doing what you're toGld
What's the poDmint in always doing what you're toGld
So walk the wDmire to keep our Fmfeet above the coaGlsF  C  G  
[Bridge]
And AmI remember Gdays of splendour
FWalking with our feet pressed to the coaGls
And AmI have never Emknown a fire
That Fdon't desire to feel a little, little, little GburnFm  
[Verse 3]
'Cause I've been siCnking into soC/Bmething
Without thiFnking about the duFmmb thing
[Chorus]
'Cause what's the poDmint in always doing what you're toGld
But what's the poDmint in always doing what you're toGld
We walk the wDmire to keep our feet above the coaGls
There is no fDmire that don't desire a little buGrn
So what's the poDmint in always doing what you're toGld
What's the poDmint in always doing what you're toGld (na na na na na)
