                   ]  x2

  Am         C
    Tiny baby so naive
  Dm                      F
    I can't believe what you 
         Am          C       Dm  
believe, you were once so happy 
     F
here
       Am                  C
    It may not be Eden or summer in 
Greece
  Dm                  F           
    You may not even find the 
         Am         C          Dm
golden fleece, in the drag of 
        F
this atmosphere

           Am
    Now I don't want to bring up a 
delicate matter
       Dm                      
    No I'd much rather bribe or 
            Am                   
flatter you, cos flattery gets me 
  Dm
everywhere
             Am
    But you punctured my tyres, you 
crossed all my wires
       Dm                          
    I brand your acolytes as a pack
         Am                       
 of liars, and the fire's singing 
Dm
everywhere

       Am
    I lent you some collateral to 
buy new clothes
            Dm                   
    It went out the window and up 
          Am                       
your nose, and that's the end of 
   Dm
the honeymoon
             Am
    Yeah we walked down the aisle 
for another mile
                Dm
    I'd walk a million miles for one
 of your smiles
  Am                         Dm
    And you can have all the money 
soon

      Am
    You're so deluxe you're so 
divine
              Dm                   
    You're so 50 light years ahead 
            Am                     
of your time, you're a riddle 
     Dm
you're a ripple
             Am
    You're a human sacrifice to the 
goddess of vice
          Dm                       
    Your hairdo is full of diamonds
         Am                        
 and lice, and you're hardly off 
   Dm
the nipple
