_ _ Thank you so [C] much for turning up to see me tonight, I really appreciate it.

_ [Ebm] You are the ones tonight [Eb] in this big, huge metropolis.
[Bb] You're the ones who know.
_ _ [N] And I know there's so much choice, so many different things you could go and be doing
and what you could be spending your hard earned money on.
But I know you know.
And that's [A] _
_ [E] not about the ego, that's a shared [Bb] experience.
I know you know, and you make me feel like, yeah, [Eb] this is where we're going.
We're going somewhere [Ab] special, thank you so much.
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] So all the politicians that [Cm] I've noticed, all the [D] musicians, they want to get soaked.
They're soaking [Eb] woke.
_ I want to kill [D] that word off tonight.
[Gb] _
Yeah.
Don't steal [Gb] the minds or the [D] ideas of people who've spent years on the fringes
[Bb] and now we've got [G] all these woke people.
[Eb] _ _ Like Katy Perry.
[N] _
_ She's all political now, you know.
She's the new Shady Barber.
_ _ _ _ _ [G] I was writing [Bb] songs back in 97 with titles like
You're a slave to money and [Gb] then you die.
_ The drugs _ [E] don't work, they just make [E] you worse.
[C] _ Yeah.
_ No [D] wonder they didn't want me in the fucking [Ebm] music industry.
I'm gonna [Db] have them here.
_ [C] _ _ [Eb]
No wonder when I got married to a beautiful woman, who I'm still [Db] married to now
and I have two [Abm] great kids.
[E] No wonder they didn't want me in the industry.
_ _ [Db] Cause death sells, [Ab] you know that.
_ Death and [G] nihilism, not love.
Yeah.
[D] So when I chose that path, well guess what?
That's the timeless path and that's why I'm still here now singing to you.
[N] God bless you.
