D - G x2


D
Verse 1:

                Em          G        D
Like the toupee on a fading fame

                       G             D
The final whistle in a losing game

                   Em         G               D
Thick lipstick on a five year old girl

                               G              D
It makes you think that it's a plastic world


                          Em
A plastic world and we're all plastic too

D                                                Gm      D
Just a couple of different faces in a dead man's queue

                                         Em
The world is turning Disney and there's nothing you can do

D                                           G       Gmaj7      D
You're trying to walk like giants but you're wearing Pluto's shoes


Pre-Chorus:

        Em                                               D
And the answers fall easier from the barrel of a gun

        D
Than it does from the lips of the beautiful and the dumb

    Em                 A                D
The world won't end in darkness, it'll end in family fun

               D
With Coca Cola clouds behind a Big Mac sun

G - D - G


D
Verse 2:

                      Gmaj6  G         D
A howling scream in a church asleep

                        G              D
And rusty bicycle in an ocean deep

                  A7               E7
Like an ear-ring on the newly born

D                G                     D
Strong perfume on a winter's morn


                           A                   Emin7          D
The world is perfumed and we're perfumed as well

                      G
Petals from a flower that blossomed in hell

           D                               Emin7
And you can't breathe the air through the thickness of the smell

          D                            G     Gmaj7   D
And you can't see the hair through the grease of the gel


Pre-Chorus:


        Em       A                   Emin7
And the answers fall easier from the barrel of a gun

    D
Than it does from the lips of the beautiful and the dumb
    Emin7
The world won't end in darkness, it'll end in family fun

     D
With Coca Cola clouds behind a Big Mac sun

You say there's only one God, you could do with two or three

A                             Amaj6
Your Jesus Christ is hired out, like the slag of Galilee

     G                                                    A7
Well, if Peter is a prostitute, then what does that make me


Refrain:

             D
There's only one God, there should be two or three

Gmaj6                                 G
One God, there should be two or three

     D
One God, there should be two or three

       G
Two or three

          G       D
...Two or three
