I can argue with the mime

he is reading me the riot act

every lawyer in his prime

every lawyer in his prime

gets nostalgic for the bar's
      E minorEm       A minorAm E minorEm
naivete to crime

   C majorC
my indulgence is a joke

and while everybody laughs

I'm clipping coupons
      E minorEm
saving my breath

    C majorC
I was celebrating Lent

with a candle in a tent

when you came and snatched me up
       E minorEm
out of retirement

     C majorC
now I'm buying finer clothes

in department store windows

throwing credit cards down
           E minorEm
I never raised my voice

I never raised my voice

G+G             A minorAm
  ascetics wring their hands
G+G           A minorAm

  inside my china room
G+G
  you are my coffee spoon
C majorC E minorEm A minorAm E minorEm (E minorEm - C majorC - D MajorD)
