[G#]
[C#m] [C#]
Everybody [C#m] knows that the day's loaded
Everybody [A] rolls with their fingers crossed
[C#m] Everybody knows the war is over
Everybody knows the good guy's lost
[F#m] Everybody knows the [G#] fight is fixed
The poor [B] stay poor, the rich [C#m] get rich
That's [D] how it goes
[G#]
[C#m] Everybody knows
Everybody knows that the coal is leaking
[A] Everybody knows the captain lied
[C#m] Everybody got this broken feeling
Unlike their father or their dog just died
[F#m] Everybody talking to [G#] their pockets
[B] Everybody wants a box [C#m] of chocolate
And a long [D]-stemmed rose
[G#] Everybody [C#m] knows
Everybody knows that you love him, baby
[A] Everybody knows [F] that you really do
[C#m] Everybody knows that you've been faithful
[A] A give or take, a night or two
[F#m] Everybody knows you've [G#] been discreet
But there were so [B] many people you just [C#m] had 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]
[E] Everybody knows
Everybody knows
[B] Everybody knows
That's [C#m] how it goes
[B] [A]
[E]
[C#m]
Everybody knows that it's now or never
[A] Everybody knows that it's me or you
And [C#m] everybody knows that you'll live forever
[A] Or when you're done, a night or two
[F#m] Everybody knows the deal [G#] is rock
Old [B] Black Joe still [C#m] picking cotton for your [D] ribbons and bows
[G#] And [C#m] everybody knows
And everybody knows that the plague is coming
[A] Everybody knows that it's fast
[C#] Everybody [C#m] knows that the naked man and woman
A [A] test is shining the 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 [D] won't disclose
[G#] What [C#m] everybody knows
And everybody knows that you're in trouble
[A] Everybody knows what you've been through
From the [C#m] bloody cross on top of Calvary
[A] To the beach in Malibu
[F#m] Everybody knows it's coming [G#] upon you
Take one [B] last look at this sacred [C#m] heart
Before it [D] blows
And [G#]
[C#m] everybody knows
[E] Everybody knows
Everybody [B] knows
That's how [C#m] it goes
[B] [A]
[E] Everybody knows
Everybody knows
Everybody [B] knows
That's [C#m] how it goes
