The third man is a film revered
   Emin
And a very well regarded scent
  Dmin
The third eye is a heavy heavy brow
   C majorC
On a Hindu cow in a worship tent
    Amin
But the third drink
           Emin
Is a prick in the universe
       G+G
Anchor and balloon
          C majorC
Fierce flame and a cold spoon
     Emin
A augmentedA Guarded moment
         FF
At the change of guards
FF                             Emin
Which ushers in the imp, and the whispers, and the weeping bards

Verse:
FF
And asks of the senses derange
   Emin
Be unbound and
            Dmin
Ripple and be above all strange
         C majorC
Unserious now, do frolic

Improvise, vivid alcoholic
  Amin
The third drink is chaperone
    Emin
To the flood
          G+G
Who, once asked to dance
           C majorC
Gives more whim than any fool

Ought chance
       E MajorE
The third man suffers not
       FF
Over time it only grows its plot

The third eye reads bovinely polyglot
  Emin
The third drink gets me into troubles
E MajorE FF
A augmentedA lot

Amin
Oh the third drink
           Emin
Is a prick in the universe
       G+G
Anchor and balloon
          C majorC
And the wire in between on fire with a dying tune
           Emin        FF
We're gonna blitz it all, leaving only a black tawdry mark
                       Emin
The third drink is a light, leads me into the dark
