She'll be begging for forgiveness [G] in the vacuum

Their [D] different pales of colourful
And their guarantee in boredom, [G] cold, long, and sweet
[D] And apart from what was offered
There were mothers buying orphans [G] at the auction
You're [D] much better off in the tombs
If you can win to see the carnage [G] in the vacuum
[D] Clothes on the table
Love is concentrated, you heard
[G]
[D] Leading in without a cause
Hiding out behind the antelopes [G] to the vacuum
[D] Took longer than expected
And difficulty in swallowing [Gm] the [G] capsules
They had [D] a cleaner load of the trouble
Than the sniffing dogs at [Dm] Heathrow
[G] And the trousers down in the old-time in the vacuum
[D] Almost nothing in the papers
