The Key

Em


[Verse 1]
Em                            
There once was a king of Paris, 
                    C
there once was an emperor of Brazil
          G                        
There was maybe a Loch Ness 
                           D
Monster, there once was a Buffalo 
Bill
            Am                   
Now you can search the whole wide 
                    F
planet, scratching in the mud and 
worms
       C                           
But an honest politician is just a 
Am    G          F
contradiction in terms


[Chorus]
         C                  
And if I had the keys to the 
 G      Am                        
kingdom, I'd hand them straight to
  Fm
 you

           C             G    
In another time, another place, 
          Am            F
another life, another waste
              C              G    
Sometimes the last thing you wanna
             C
 know is the truth

Em


[Verse 2]
Em                          
With your bishops priests and 
                       C
mullahs, and all the mumbo jumbo 
clans
            G                      
When you're not accepting women, 
                           D
how can you love your fellow man
              Am                   
Well, you can search the whole wide
                 F
 planet, down to viruses and germs
   C                           
A 'sensible' religion is just a 
 Am    G          F
contradiction in terms


[Chorus]
         C                  
And if I had the keys to the 
 G      Am                        
kingdom, I'd hand them straight to
  Fm
 you
           C             G    
In another time, another place, 
          Am            F
another life, another waste
        C             G            
Another love, another lie, another 
Am           F
small way to die
              C              G    
Sometimes the last thing you wanna
             C
 know is the truth
