Em Am7 B Em
All God's children need travelling shoes, drive your problems from here,
Em Am7 B Em
All good people read... good books, now your conscience is clear
B Em
I hear you talk, girl, now your conscience is clear
Em Am7 B Em
In the morning when I wipe my brow, wipe the miles away,
Em Am7 B Em
I like to think I can be so willed, and never do what you say
B Em
I'll never hear you, and never do what you say
B Em
Look my eyes are just holograms,
B Em
Look your love has drawn red from my hands,
Am7 Em B Em
From my hands you know you'll never be, more than twist in my sobriety,
B Em B Em
More than twist in my sobriety, more than twist in my sobriety
Am7 B Em
Em Am7 B Em
We just poked a little ...empty pie, for the fun that people had at night,
Em Am7 B Em
Late at night don't need hostility, timid smile, and pause to free,
Em Am7
I don't care about their... different thoughts,
B Em
Different thoughts are good for me,
Em Am7 B Em
Up in arms and chaste the whole, all God's children took their toll
B Em
Look my eyes are just holograms,
B Em
Look your love has drawn red from my hands,
Am7 Em B Em
From my hands you know you'll never be, more than twist in my sobriety,
B Em B (Em)
More than twist in my sobriety, more than twist in my sobriety
B Em B
Em Am7 B
Em Am7 Em Am7
Cup of tea, take time to think, yeah, ...time to risk a life, a life, a life,
Em Am7 B Em
Sweet and handsome, ...soft and porky, you pig out 'til you've seen the light,
B Em Em
Pig out 'til you've seen the light
Em Am7 B Em
Half the people... read the papers, read them good and well,
Em Am7 B Em
Pretty people, nervous people, people have got to sell,
B Em
News you have to sell
B Em
Look my eyes are just holograms,
B Em
Look your love has drawn red from my hands,
Am7 Em
From my hands you know you'll never be,
B Em B Em
More than twist in my sobriety, more than twist in my sobriety
B Em
Look my eyes are just holograms,
B Em
Look your love has drawn red from my hands,
Am7 Em B Em
From my hands you know you'll never be, more than twist in my sobriety,
B Em B Em
More than twist in my sobriety, more than twist in my sobriety
