verse:
D G
This erratic haphazard, fluttering, this toing and

ad infinitum. You're a really sad per-

son. You're really so sad.

D G AI (AI)\

outro:
|: D G
Fools and horses, running their courses,

D G
and brow beaten down, like dust on the ground.

You cheat easily, like sweet charity.

1.,2. D G
And all of the bastards the world despises

D G
springing surprises in newer disguises.

AI G :|
You cheat easily, like all (2nd.: sweet) charity.

'impression', so what? Can't we all be brothers?"
