[Verse 1]
Chord diagramDmDm
 I did not think I was the one being addressed
Dm/C
 In hemorrhoid commercials on the TV set
Chord diagramBbmaj7Bbmaj7
 I often stand and stare at nothing in the grocery store
Chord diagramG minorGm                          Chord diagramC majorC             Chord diagramA augmentedA
 Because I do not know what to buy to eat any more


[Verse 2]
Chord diagramDmDm
 And parapraxis is the order of the day
Dm/C
 I never heard that word until tonight I have to say
Chord diagramBbmaj7Bbmaj7
 And I'm supposed to believe
     Chord diagramBbmaj7Bbmaj7                                Chord diagramG minorGm
That there's some guy who’ll take the pain away
[Pre-Chorus]
Chord diagramC majorC                                Chord diagramA augmentedA
 And there are children who have cancer
           Chord diagramDmDm
And so all bets are off
                 Chord diagramG+G
Cause I can't compete with that
       Chord diagramDmDm
So all bets are off
                 Chord diagramG+G
Cause I can't compete with that


[Chorus]
Chord diagramG+G                                Adim/Eb
 I've got grey tickles and black pressure
Chord diagramG+G                             Adim/Eb
 And I'd rather lose my arm inside of a corn thresher
     Chord diagramBb majorBb
Just like Uncle Paul
     Chord diagramEdim7Edim7
Just like Uncle Paul
Chord diagramFF    Chord diagramFdim7Fdim7    Chord diagramA augmentedA
I, I-I-I-I, I-I


[Verse 3]
Chord diagramDmDm
 They won’t be happy til they tear down everything
Dm/C
 Which looks remotely cool or is older than two weeks
Chord diagramBbmaj7Bbmaj7                                                 | Chord diagramGsus4Gsus4 Chord diagramG minorGm | Chord diagramC majorC Chord diagramA augmentedA |
 You must be kidding me except I do know better than to ask


[Verse 4]
Chord diagramDmDm
 I can't believe I missed New York during the 70's
Dm/C
 I could have gotten a head start in the world of disease
Chord diagramBbmaj7Bbmaj7                                            Chord diagramG minorGm
 I'm sure I would have contracted every single solitary thing


[Pre-Chorus]
Chord diagramC majorC                                Chord diagramA augmentedA
 And there are children who have cancer
           Chord diagramDmDm
And so all bets are off
                 Chord diagramG+G
Cause I can't compete with that
       Chord diagramDmDm
So all bets are off
                 Chord diagramG+G
Cause I can't compete with that


[Verse 5] (variation)
Chord diagramDmDm            A/D           Chord diagramDm7Dm7
 They say let go let go let go
               Chord diagramDm6Dm6
You must learn to let go
Chord diagramDmDm              A/D             Chord diagramDm7Dm7
 If I hear that fucking phrase again
            Chord diagramDm7Dm7
This baby’s gonna blow
Chord diagramBb majorBb                                               | Chord diagramGsus4Gsus4 Chord diagramG minorGm |
 Into a million itsy bitsy tiny pieces, don’t you know
             Chord diagramC majorC                 Chord diagramA augmentedA
Just like my favorite scene in Scanners


[Verse 6] (variation)
Chord diagramDmDm
 Apparently there was an outcry of some sort today
Dm/C
 Which no-one heard incidentally and by the way
Chord diagramBbmaj7Bbmaj7
I have not had the strength to leave my place in days or weeks
Chord diagramGsus4Gsus4           Chord diagramG minorGm                                 Chord diagramGsus4Gsus4  Chord diagramGm7Gm7
 And I'll never understand what’s happening in the Middle East


[Pre-Chorus]
Chord diagramC majorC                                Chord diagramA augmentedA
 And there are children who have cancer

Cause I can't compete with that

So all bets are off
                 Chord diagramG+G
Cause I can't compete with that


[Chorus]

 I've got grey tickles and black pressure
