[Dm] Non-fries, doesn't seem a [C] minute since the tirilion [Dm] store had the chess bars in it.
[Am] All change, [D] don't you know that [C] when you play at this [Dm] level there's no ordinary [Gm] menu?

One town's fairy like another when your head's down over your pieces, brother.
It's a drag, it's a bore, it's been a such a pain.
You've been looking at the board, not looking at [Gm] the city.
What do you mean?
You've seen one crowded, polluted, [D] stinking town.

[D] _ I [Dm] was going to be the witness to [C] the ultimate [Dm] test of cerebral [D] phagies.
This grips me more than would a [C] muddy old [D] river or a reclining [Gm] Buddha.
Thank God I'm only watching the game, controlling it.
_ [Dm] I don't see you guys rating [C] the kind [D] of mate I'm contemplating.
I bet [C] you watch.
[Dm] I would invite you, [C] but the queens [Dm] we [Gm] use will not excite you.
[F] [G] So you better go back to your [F] bars, your temples, [Gm] your massage [Bb] parlors.
