Intro:
BB F#F# BB F#F#

Verse 1:
BB         F#F#
 I woke up in Montecito
   BB           F#F# BB
I was thinkin' about my life
    E MajorE          BB
And the questions made more questions
    F#F#
Starin' out into the night
     BB        F#F#   BB
Yes, I've worn the golden g-string
           F#F# BB
Put my hand into hellfire
 E MajorE       BB        F#F#
I did it all to make you love me and to feel alive

Chorus:
E MajorE                      BB
Oh, that's just the world that we're livin' in
  E MajorE                         BB F#F#
The old boys hold all the cards and they ain't playin' gin
  E MajorE                BB         E MajorE
You dare to call me crazy, have you looked around this place?
     C#7C#7
I should walk away
       F#F#
Oh, I should walk away
         BB
But I think I'll stay

Verse 2:
             F#F#
There are layers to this body
    BB       F#F#
Primal sex and primal shame
   E MajorE        BB
They told me I should cover it
   F#F#
So I went the other way
   BB        F#F#
I was tryin' to own my power
     BB         F#F#
Still I'm tryin' to work it out
    E MajorE         BB        F#F#
And at least it gives the paper somethin' they can write about

Chorus:
E MajorE                      BB
Oh, that's just the world that we're livin' in
  E MajorE                         BB F#F#
The old boys hold all the cards and they ain't playin' gin
  E MajorE                BB         E MajorE
You dare to call me crazy, have you looked around this place?
     C#7C#7
I should walk away
       F#F#
Oh, I should walk away
         BB
But I think I'll stay

Bridge:
    BB        F#F#
So the mad man's in the big chair
    BB        F#F#
And his heart's an iron vault
  E MajorE            BB         F#F#
He says "If you can't make ends meet, honey, it must be your fault"
    BB      F#F#
We all focus on the winners
    BB        F#F#
And get blinded by their shine
   E MajorE        BB        F#F#
Maybe caring for each other's just too 1969

Chorus:
E MajorE                      BB
Oh, that's just the world that we're livin' in
  E MajorE                         BB F#F#
The old boys hold all the cards and they ain't playin' gin
  E MajorE                BB         E MajorE
You dare to call me crazy, have you looked around this place?
     C#7C#7
I should walk away
       F#F#
Oh, I should walk away
         BB
But I think I'll stay

Outro:
         E MajorE   BB  F#F#
And I think I'll stay, yeah
      BB
I have too much to lose
        E MajorE  BB F#F#
So I think I'll stay
       BB
I can't walk away
