G G/B Csus2 G (x3)

Verse
N.C.                    G         G/B Csus2 G
How I hate the Queen of Pentacles
                     Am      Asus2  Am  Asus2
Sitting on her golden throne
                C        F
In her domestic tyranny
                            G     G/B Csus2 G
All roads lead back to her alone

verse 2
N.C.                                G     G/B Csus2 G
The whole wide world is a great big drain
                     Am   Asus2  Am
And the vortex is her heart
    Asus2
Her moods and wants and
C                 F
Wishes and whims
                            G      G/B Csus2 G
All take precedence on this chart

N.C.
But what do I know
              C         D         B7
My card?s the fool, the fool, the fool
                    C
That merry rootless man,
                    Am
With air beneath my footstep
                    F
And providence as my plan
               G      G/B Csus2 G
Providence as my plan

verse 3
N.C.                   G          G/B Csus2 G
Oh it?s such expensive innocence
                  Am   Asus2  Am
Never knowing any cost
    Asus2             C       F
She throws around her finery
                            G     G/B Csus2 G
For us to fetch when it gets lost
