Riot act

A   Dm    A               Dm   A
         Forever
        Dm      C            F
Doesn't mean forever anymore
A Dm        A
I said forever
               Dm                  
But it doesn't look like I'm gonna 
    C                 F
be around much anymore
D                  G
When the heat gets so tropical
Bm               Em
And the talk gets  so topical

     A
Or a villain in a million
  Em7                         A
A slip of the tongue is gonna keep 
me civilian ]

C#m             C              Bm
Why do you talk such stupid nonsense
            Bb               A
When my mind could rest much easier
C#m        C               
Instead of all this dumb dumb 
   Bm
insolence
           Bb              A
I would be happier with amnesia

A    Dm         A
They say forget her
                         Dm    
Now it looks like you're either 
            C                F
gonna be before me or against me
A  Dm          A
I  got your letter
               Dm                 
Now they say I don't care for the 
C             F
color that it paints me
D               G
Trying to be so bad is bad enough
Bm            Em
Don't make me laugh by talking tough
D              G
Don't put your heart out on your 
sleeve
Em
When your remarks are off the cuf
