Intro:
A# Am G C x2
F C Dm G
C G D A
You don't know a thing about their lives
C G D A
They live where you wouldn't dare to drive
C G D A
You shake as you think of how they sleep
C G D A
But you write as if you all lie side by side
A# Am
Reader, meet author
G C
With the hope of hearing sense
A# Am
But you may be feeling let down
G C
By the words of defense
F C Dm G
He says "no-one ever sees me when I cry"
C G D A
You don't know a thing about their lives
C G D A

Books don't save them, books aren't stanley knives
C G D A
And if a fight broke out here tonight
C G D A
You'd be the first away, because you're that type
A# Am G C
And the year two thousand won't change anyone here
A# Am G C
As each fabled promise flies so fast you'll swear it was never there
F C Dm G
Oh, have you ever escaped from a shipwrecked life?
Solo:
Am D# A# F x4
C G D A x4
A# Am G C
So safely with your software, miles from the front line
A# Am G C
You hear the way the sad voice sings, and you start to imagine things
F C Dm G
Oh, any excuse to write more lies
Outro:
Am D# A# F
end on Am
