Intro 1

Verse 1
D 
I'm a piece of work,
I'm iron and lace,
I'm shy right up there in your face.
I'm all dumbfounded,
stubborn as an ass,
sharp as an arrow in a pile of glass.
A 
I'm a sweetheart, genius, restless jerk,
D 
Lord have mercy,
G 
D 
I'm a piece of work.
Well, the Lord met me on a long,
thin limb
Made sure I'd remember him or her
In the middle of a long, dark night
Creation crazy, death sheen white
A 
Fade in the image of a line -shocked lamb
D 
I am who the hell I am
A 
Ever better, bad to worse
G 
Em 
D 
Down to the letter on a piece of wood
I'm a piece of work,
I'm an angel's beam
Bathed in lavender and gasoline
Scared for a shadow in
an inked black veil
Lightly browned in the fires of hell
A 
Wicked, holy, full -on fake
D 
Best known for my big mistake
A 
I'm a zen, wise, peaceful, gone berserk
G 
D 
Good God Almighty, I'm a piece of work
I don't dread facade and
I just don't care
Spend all morning pulling out my hair
I woke at dawn with a crazy spin
Half the day trying to go back in
A 
Mother bloody Mary please
D 
Swipe that smile right off your knees
A 
I'm the CEO of the mailroom clerks
Em 
G 
Law have mercy,
D 
A 
D 
what a piece of work
A 
Em 
D 
I'm of work, I'm a lovesick boy
Cloth cap, caviar, and corduroy
All over the map, just lost in space
With a guilty mind and a
choir boy's face
A 
Heels up, head down,
straight on through
D 
Watch out, woman,
I'm a -gettin' to you
A 
I'm a gladiator with a mind to irk
Em 
D 
Good God almighty, I'm a piece of work
I'm a piece of work
I'm a piece of work
