[C#m] [G#]
[C#m]
Everybody knows that the days are loaded
Everybody [A] rolls with their fingers crossed
[C#m] Everybody knows the war is over
[A] Everybody knows the good guy's lost
[C#m] [F#m] Everybody knows the fight [G#] was fixed
The poor [B] stay poor, the rich [C#m] get rich
And that's how [D] it goes
[G#]
[C#m] Everybody knows
[D#m] Everybody [C#m] knows that the boat is leaking
[A] Everybody knows the captain lied
[C#m] Everybody got this broken feeling
Like their father or their [A] dog just died
[F#m] Everybody talking to [G#] their pockets
[B] Everybody wants a box [C#m] of chocolate
And a long [D] stem rose
[G#]
Everybody [C#m] knows
Everybody knows that you love me baby
Everybody knows [A] that you really do
[F#m] Everybody [C#m] knows that you've been faithful
[A] I give or take, night or two
[F#m] Everybody knows you've been [G#] discreet
But there were so [B] many people you just had [C#m] to meet
Without [D] your clothes
[G#]
And [C#m] everybody knows
[E] Everybody knows
Everybody [B] knows
That's how [C#m] it goes
[B]
[A] Everybody [E] knows
Everybody knows
Everybody [B] knows
How [C#m] it goes
[B]
[A] Everybody [E] knows
And
[C#m]
everybody knows that it's now or never
Everybody [A] knows that it's me or you
And everybody [C#m] knows that you live forever
[A] Oh, when you've done a line or two
Everybody [F#m] knows the deal [G#] is rotten
Old [B] black Joe still picking [C#m] cotton for your ribs [D] and bones
[G#] And [C#m] everybody knows
And everybody knows that the plague is coming
And [A] everybody knows that it's coming fast
Everybody [F] [C#m] knows that the naked man and woman
Are [A] just a shining artifact of the past
Everybody [F#m] knows the scene [G#] is dead
But there's gonna [B] be a meter on [C#m] your bed
That will [D] disclose
[G#]
What [C#m] everybody knows
And everybody knows that you're in trouble
Everybody [A] knows what you've been through
[F#m] From the [C#m] bloody cross on top of Calvary
[A] To the beach at Malibu
[C#m] Everybody [F#m] knows it's coming [G#] upon
Take one [B] last look at this sacred [C#m] heart
Before it [D] blows
[G#]
And [C#m] everybody knows
Everybody [E] knows
Everybody [B] knows
That's how [C#m] it goes
[B]
[F#m] Everybody [E] knows
Everybody knows
Everybody [B] knows
That's how it [C#m] goes
