(F major) (C major) (B flat major) (F major) We
(C major) bet on our lives
and we bet on the horses
In that (F major) upstairs apartment

In the (F major) (G major) emperor´s new clothes (C major)

(A minor) wreck we´d been (C major) driving
As the (F major) dashboard Madonna
Smiled (G major) back at us kindly
Verse 5
We (C major) cheated the system never

Seeing (F major) only the good
