🎸 Verse:
E MajorE               BB
The odds have built up of the chance you're going down,
       C majorC              BB
'cause you're looking pretty guilty in the court of the crown,
    E MajorE              BB
And my friend's getting eager to complete this mission,
   C majorC            BB
It's better all round just to sign the confession.
    E MajorE              BB
Doesn't matter if you're innocent or guilty as hell,
  C majorC                 BB
My friend's got a feeling that you're feeling unwell,
  E MajorE             BB
Who cares about the truth, the truth's there to bend,
C majorC          BB
Do as I say I'm your only friend.

🎸 Verse:
  E MajorE                  BB
The wicked step father that took a step farther,
      C majorC          BB
Played the patron saint in his shining armour,
     E MajorE         BB
With his sword of power and shield to protect you,
C majorC          BB
Tongue hanging out, going to get you.
  E MajorE            BB
You know I want to hug you, know I want to kiss you,
     C majorC          BB
It's your dear old pop and you know I really miss you,
    E MajorE         BB
In the pantomime of life, he's behind you,
C majorC             BB
Says no I'm just here to remind you.

🎸 Verse:
      E MajorE            BB
Was it the father or the son or the holy ghost,
  C majorC              BB
The butler in the kitchen or the game-show host,
  E MajorE               BB
The policeman on the corner who'll show you the way,
  C majorC              BB
The geezer with a beard comes on Xmas day.
       E MajorE               BB
Could be your mother or your father or your sister or your brother,
    C majorC                 BB
Doesn't matter who it is they'll say there ain't no other,
E MajorE             BB
Might never see 'em or you meet them every day,
  C majorC             BB
But who gives a damn when you hear them say.
