How (D major) can you be on both sides when you
(E minor) don't know where to en (C major) d up?
How (G major) can you look into her

Y (D major) 'all only get halfway with creed, (C major)

If (G major) you have to impress her,
you bet (C major) ter do better than that
She (D major) doesn't give a fig if you're
(E minor) horrible or pleas (C major) ing
You (D major) might be a prick and that's
a (E minor) lot of you she's teas (C major) ing
If (G major) you want to drive her home,

If (D major) you want to smoke a right,
you bet (E minor) ter be prepared to choke (C major)
It's (G major) not completely honest and
it's not (C major) a pack of lies
It's (D major) somewhere in between, oh, the
(C major) Queen of
(D major) Comprom (G major) ise
Yeah, if (D major) you think she looks alright
She'll turn her face and then
you'll see another (G major) side
There's always another side
And (D major) if you blink and look again
You'll find that you've been
taken for half (C major) a ride
By the
(D major) Queen of
Compromise
How (G major) can you take the crown from the
(C major) Queen of
Compromise?
How (G major) can you settle down with
her and cut (C major) her down to size?
If (D major) you want to be a jester,
you bet (E minor) ter get a funny hat (C major)
If (D major) you want to impress her,
you bet (E minor) ter do better (C major) than that
Oh, (G major) I'm not covered with myself,
I'm (C major) naked in apron ties
I'd (D major) only go halfway for the
(C major) Queen of
(D major) Compromise (G major)
Got you (D major) on your half way to
(C major) clean up (D major) compromise (G major)
Got you (D major) on your half way, yeah
To clean (C major) up (D major) comprom (G major) ise
Ah, yeah
