[Am] [E] [C] [E]
[Am] Why did I listen [E] to that man?
[C] Why did I listen to the nature [Am] of his plan?
And when he talked, I should have balked, I should have walked, I [F] should have [C] ran.
Why [F] did I [E] listen to that [Am] man?
[F] [Gb] [E] [Am]
[Dbm] Why did I listen [Ab] to that crook?
[E] A little bribe and [Ab] cash is all it [Dbm] really took.
That's how that craven, toilet-babe-and-maybe-cave-in Irish look.
Why [Gbm] did I listen [Dbm] to that crook?
You lied [A] to us, Cladwell.
[Bb] You told us one thing, then you did [A] another.
[Dbm] That's what you [Cm] did, Cladwell.
[G] That's what you [B] did!
[Cm] Now we've finally [D] got you.
[Cm] Now you're in [D] our claws.
[Cm] Captured [D] in our city [Cm] of laws.
There's no trial [D] or jury, [Cm] nothing to [D] discuss.
[Cm] Now the law [D] is speaking [Cm] through us.
You'll [Ab] get your end's town.
[Cm] Off with you to your end's town.
Away with [Ab] you to [Cm] your end's town.
Now no more talk.
We have to save [Ab] Hope!
There's no [C] saving Hope [Am] now, Miss Pennywise.
There may be no [F] saving you.
Oh [Gb] no?
Then [F] take that!
[Am] That!
And this!
Why did [Ab]
[C] Hope's [E] dreams have filled me [Am] with such joy?
How can I meet he loved me so?
Was it for show?
[F] Was I his?
[C] Why did you [F] hide it?
[Am] Why did I listen [Dbm] to that cat?
[C] Why did I listen to my daddy?
I went to work for him.
He said [F] he was so [Am] glad.
Well now it's clear [F] that I've been [E] had.
[D] [Dm] Listen [C] to [A] that [Am] crook.
[Ab] That's his word [C] of mouth.
[Gb] That's a heavy tootin' cow.
[F]
It was a [Am] heavy tootin' cow.
[Dm] [B] So [E]
what's it like?
This urine town that [Fm] I've heard so much [C] about?
Perhaps better for us to [E] show you.
Wait a minute.
You're just gonna [Fm] throw me off this roof?
[F] And that's supposed to be urine [Fm] town?
Death is urine town?
That's one interpretation.
[D]
[Gm] Why did I listen to [Eb] my heart?
[Dm] I heard it's calling, [Eb] may this [F] revolution start.
[Eb] Go back up front, take [Gm] up my side, my clan will see that [Eb] he is wrong.
Why did I [Fm] listen to [Gm] my [E] [Am] heart?
[A] [Am] I heard it's calling, [A] may this [Am] revolution start.
Go back up front, [C] take up my side, my clan will see [F] that he is wrong.
Why did I listen [C] to my [Ab] heart?
[Am] Why did I listen to my [A] heart?
[F] [D] [Ebm] [E] [Gbm] A
[G]
shovel and a mop, Mr.
Barrow.
You know the drill.
