It's funny how you never [C] knew what [D] my name [G] was.
Our only contact [C] was a form for [D] the election.
[E] These [D#] days are fine, [C#]
I [B] don't listen.
[E] These [D#] days are fine, [C#] and we're [B] out of touch.
[E]
These [D#] days are fine, [C#] and time [B] to be busy.
So why [D#] the attention?
[C#] Now you want [B] my assistance.
[C] What [D] have you done for [E] me?
[G] You've got [C] [D] yourself in [G] trouble.
Now you want [C] me to help [D] you out.
[E] These [D#] days are [C#] fine, as I [B] can't be bothered.
These days are [C#] fine, and it's [B] all too much.
[E]
Pick [D#] up a [C#] gun, shoot as I am [E] done.
I've got no [D#] choice, so here [B] I'm done.
[C]
[D] Wouldn't [E] that ayım?

Well, [C#]
what's [B] the point?
They [E] took some of your [D#] shots and drove [B] down.
They, they, they sent you home [C#m] in a pile [Bm] of dough
[Em] with a [E] letter to your mum.
I'm [B] finding clothes [F#m] while [B] someone's
meddling [A] at a dough [F#] to save you.
