[Bb]
One said [C] all the [Bb] time when the world was just a pancake,
fears would [C] [Bb] rise, but if you went too far you'd fall.
But with us and said [C] a [Bb] time, [F] it all became more of [Bb] a ball.
We're as [Gm] sure of that [Bb]
as [F] we all once were [Bb] when the world was [F] fried.
[Bb] [Gm] So I [Cm] wander [G] this life below [Am] smoke [F] inside [G] my head.
Let's have [C] a [Em] [Am] game [G] where nothing [F] is [C] sure.
Why would [F] you play [Bb] by the rules?
[Gm] Oh, damn you, [F]
[Bb] damn you.
[Gm] Oh, damn [F] you, [Bb] damn you.
When was [Gm] it [Bb] killed?
[F] The very last [Bb] dodo bird.
And was [Ebm] she [Gm] aware?
[Bb] [Gb] She was [F] the very last [Bb] one.
[A] [Gm] So I [Cm] wander [G] this life below [Am] smoke [F] inside [G] my head.
Let's have [C] a [Em] [Am] game where [G] nothing [F] is [C] sure.
Why would [F] you play [Bb] by the rules?
[Gm] Oh, damn [F] you, [Bb] damn you.
[G] Oh, damn you, [F] [Bb] damn you.
[Gm] You say who did it?
Why would [F] you do it?
[Bb] You.
All the things that you are saying, love, were true and up for still.
Why does all the world again [C] [Bb] rebound [Bb] when [C] [Bb] you can't work it out?
You can't work [Gm] it out.
I [Cm] wander [G] this life below [Am] smoke [F] inside [G] my head.
Let's have [C] a [Em] game [Am]
[G] where nothing [F] is [C] sure.
Why would [F] you play [Bb] by the rules?
[Gm] Oh, damn [F] you, [Bb] damn you.
[Gm] Oh, damn [F]
you, [Bb] damn you.
You [Gm] say who did it?
Why would [F] you do it?
[Bb] You.
