Intro 1

Verse 1
G 
We'll live for now and then,
the power lines shift
and the clever ones jump to
Em 
the right
Everybody else got a fin for themselves,
G

and you acted a little strange
G 
Tell me what else was I supposed to do?
D 
G 
I told your neighbors, I told your kids
The judge and papers,
Em

C

Em

Am 
You a criminal because I
D

it's only twenty years,
Em

that you've had a conversion,
G

But I can see it in your eyes
you're still so surprised
Em 
that the world can be so dark
You poor little dear,
you won't last a year
G 
and we'll all be better off
D 
G 
I told your neighbors, I told your kids
The judge and papers,

I told them what you did
