Thank you very much.
I was on my annual leaf collecting holiday to Bavaria last year
and [F] I stopped into a small family restaurant in a wooded glade.
Over my [F#] sucroute and reisling I could hear the sound of a strange but wonderful song.
The later Hosen proprietor said that it was an old favourite of his on 78.
It was [N] Heinz Wulf, a 1923 bizarre cabaret songwriter.
So I said I had to have it.
I traded my finest leaf and I brought it home and carefully transcribed it and translated it.
And just as we were about to play it I was shocked to turn on the radio
and there it was being played by a heavy rock act called Queens of the Stone Age.
Anyway, this is the original and best.

[C] [Cm]
[Cm] We get these rules to follow
That and this
These [G] and those
[B] No [C] one [Cm] knows
We get these pills to swallow
How they stick in [G] my throat
[B] Tastes [Cm] like gold
[C] Oh [G] what you do to [B] me
No [G#m] one

I [G]
[C] [Cm] journey through the desert of the mind
With no [G] hope [B] I [Cm] fall in love
I drift along the ocean
Dead like gold in [G] the sun
[B] I come [C] undone
[G] Casually caving in
[B] I come [C] undone
I realize [G] you're mine
[Cm] Who need a fool [G] am I
[Cm] I realize [G] you're mine
[Cm] Who need a fool am [G] I
