Verse:
[A5]Every thought's a game
[B5]A pack of chimps I cannot tame

[A5]Now you're ride has [E5]come up lame
Fortress full of hate
Fears and hopes all pound the gate
Too early, it's too late
What is evil which is great

Black is blue and bad is good
Verse two: (same chords as first verse)
Thoughts that I keep my money in
Melt some wax and chunks of tin
Forget your name, how to walk and ignore
The light shining in from under the door
Thoughts like a thread through a foam device
Liquid bread and rubber ice
Make a promise, grow teeth and go to bed
Wake up when you're dead
Note: On the last time you play the solo
you play the normal part twice and
then you play the variation and the
normal part again

A5 B5 D5 E5 C#5 C#5 (Variation)
