Fall of the World's own Optimist/Aimee Mann

(capo up 1 fret)

 C             C/Bb                   Am           Am/G#         
There's no charity in you and that surprises me

 C                                     Am              E                    
I guess I thought you were a golden idol cause I called you majesty

 Am          G              Am                     
On the balustrade you watched me hunt for

 D                                      D7                 
Tips I was obliged to pick up from the passing trade


 C               F                    Am              Am7               D7       
Hey, kids--look at this it's the fall of the world's own optimist

 C                               F                          Am       Am7/G        Bb    E   
I could get back up if you insist but you'll have to ask politely

Am                         E                        C                   G   
Cause the eggshells I've been treading couldn't spare me a beheading             

          F        Am        Dm               F          Am           G        G7    
And I'll know I had it coming from a Caesar who was only slumming

 C       Bb        F                     Am            D/F#                F      C   
Hey, kids--look at this it's the fall of the world's own optimist


 C               C/Bb                   Am           Am/G#              
Well, I could have objections which you could override

 C                                             D/F#         
But what's the point--we're only flogging the horse

                E                   E7  
When the horseman has up and died

 Am          G                  Am                   D                 
Once I testified and swore I'd never leave a stone unturned

   D7                                    
I bet you're really glad that I lied


chorus:

solo:  Am E C G   F Am Dm    F Am G G7

 C            F                           Am              Am7               D7   
Hey, kids--look at this it's the fall of the world's own optimist

 C                       F                          Am       Am7/G        Bb    E    
I could get back up if you insist but you'll have to ask politely

               Am          Am7/G       Bb    E  
Yes, you'll have to ask politely

               Am           Am7/G       Bb    
Yes, you'll have to ask
