D  A  D  A  D  A  E
A             D              E         A
Back in the garage with my bullshit detector
A         D             E           A
Carbon monoxide making sure it's effective
D             C#m         Bm            A
People ringing up making offers for my life
    D              C#m          Bm         A
But I just want to stay in the garage all night

Meanwhile things are hotting up in the West end alright
A                 D         E            A
Contracts in the offices, groups in the night
     D               C#m    Bm                A
My bummin' slummin' friends have all got new boots
D                 C#m         Bm               A
Someone just asked me if the group would wear suits

D                      C#m     Bm                    A
They think they're so clever, they think they're so right

But the truth is only known by guttersnipes
