I was raised up believing I [Ab] was somehow unique, [Eb] like a snowflake, distinct among [Ab] snowflakes,
unique in each way it can [Eb] seem.
And now after some thinking, I'd say I'd rather be [Eb] a flunctioning cog in some great [Ab] machinery,
serving something beyond me.
But I don't, I don't know what that will be.
I'll get back to [Eb] you someday, [Ab] soon you [Eb] will see.
What's my name, what's my station?
Oh, [Ab] just tell me what I should do.
I don't need to be kind to the armies of night that would [Ab] do such injustice [Eb] to you.
Or bow down and be grateful and say, [Ab] sure, take all that you see.
To [Eb] the men who move on me in dimly lit halls and [Ab] determine my future [Eb] for me.
But I don't, I don't know what that will be.
I'll [Eb] get [Ab] back to [Eb] you someday, [Ab] soon you will see.
If I know only one thing, it's that everything that I see of the world outside is so inconceivable.
[Ab] Often I barely [Eb] can see.
Yeah, I'm come tight and busy and [Ab] I can't keep it to myself.
[Eb] What good is it to sing helplessness blues?
Why should I wait for [Eb] anyone else?
I know I will keep me on [Ab] the shelf.
I'll get [Eb]
back [Ab] to you someday, [Ab]
soon.

If I had an [Ab] orchard,
[Bb] [Eb] I'd work till
[Eb] I'm long.
If I had an orchard, I'd work till [Ab] I'm sore.
[C]
[Ab] And [Eb] you could wank tables, but soon I'm the [Ab] store.
