[G] Look at me, [Cm] I'm a [Gm] diva in the twister

[Bb] You know I'm not a pretty boy, [F] she called me afraid
[Ab] Last year when I [Eb] was young, she used to sell my [Fm] swag
Sometimes to [G] remember, sometimes to [Cm] forget
Then I fell off the couch, [G] she used to be my wife

[Bb] We are all prisoners here [C] of our own divine.
[Ab] It's a message of love and [Eb] a shadow of peace.
[Fm] Some say we can steal the night [G] but they just can't kill the peace.
[Cm] I still remember [G] I was in the head of war in those [Bb] days.
I'll come back to the planet [F] where I worked before.
