[D] On a free ride home from [C] the embassy
I saw [A] the governor and [Em] his lover [C]
holding [D] hands
When I got to my place
I [C]
emptied my suitcase
[A] And opened the [Em]
[C] windows [D] wide
If [F] you could save yourself, you'd save [Am] us all
Is that what [D] you called me for?
Is that why [Bb] you're knocking on my door?
[F] The time I've spent working myself [Am] to death
Thought that's what [D] you wanted
I thought you [Bb] needed my help
To [F] make it good again
To make [A] us strong
To make [Bb] you happy
To push [F] you along
[Am] And gain some [F] respect
To be thrown [A] and crumpled
I was on [Bb] my knees
When you knocked [F] me down
The
[D] wheels fell off
The bottle dropped out
[C] The checks all bounced
I came in your mouth
[A] Your mother came calling
But [Em] then [C]
[D]
the trash caught fire
When the leaves turned brown
[C] The vultures were circling
When the circus left town
[A] I left you a note
But [E]
owed it [Am] in disappearing [D] ink
If [F] you could save yourself, you'd [Am] save us all
Is that what [D] you called me for?
Is that why [Bb] you're knocking on my door?
[F] The time I've spent working myself to [Am]
death
Thought that's what [D] you wanted
I thought you [Bb] needed my help
To [F] make it good again
To make [A] us strong
To make [Bb] you happy
To push [F] you along
[Am] And gain some [F] respect
To be [A] thrown and crumpled
I was [Bb] on my knees
