A5 D5
[Verse 1]
The A5smell of virgin pages wafted G5through the swinging D5doors
And the A5croaking speech he'd heard from countless G5counselors beD5fore.
They said, "We Bmall care for you, we G5know how you suffer,
But I A5know you can succeed, I used to have it so much rougher."
[Chorus]
There's G5hope in the D5words and eA5motion in the D5eyes.
It's so G5easy to D5be misled by the A5savvy gentle D5guise
And like G5fools we D5trust the deA5liveBmry,
But it's G5all just D5drunk sinA5cerD5ity.
It's G5all just D5drunk sinA5ceriD5ty.
[Verse 2]
In maA5ternal family 'sembly poised reG5garding the blue D5tube,
The A5numbers crept up higher and the G5hawks stayed out of D5view.
Then the Bmgenerals said, "We dont G5want our boys dead.
Your A5sons and your husbands will be coming back heroes soon."
[Chorus]
There's G5hope in the D5words and eA5motion in the D5eyes.
It's so G5easy to D5be misled by the A5savvy gentle D5guise
And like G5fools we D5trust the deA5liveBmry,
But it's G5all just D5drunk sinA5cerD5ity.
It's G5all just D5drunk sinA5ceriD5ty.

[Verse 3]
A5 D5With A5steam, and rhythm in the G5back seat of the D5car
And adoA5lescent perspective projecting life's G5forecast to the D5stars,
You heard Bmlove from the lips, you were G5rapt by the hips
And the A5promise was eternal, but you couldn't see that far.
[Chorus]
There's G5hope in the D5words and eA5motion in the D5eyes.
It's so G5easy to D5be misled by the A5savvy gentle D5guise
And like G5fools we D5trust the deA5liveBmry,
But it's G5all just D5drunk sinA5ceriD5ty.
It's G5all just D5drunk sinA5ceriD5ty.
It's G5all just D5drunk sinA5ceriBmty.
It is G5all just D5drunk sinA5cerD5ity.
