D  (slowly strum)


D                                             G                 D
Easy, when life's a bitter pill you swallow down with your last breath.

D                                                      G              D
And find me alone, and trapped amidst superlatives and greed. Shine underneath.


       A                 G             D
I was thrown out of the crib into the snow.

       A           G               D
I was born to entertain, so here i go.


D                                                    G                      D
Not easy, but your hands around my neck could be construed as your being rude.

D                                                            G       
Find the dinner gong, put down my fork, start my song cause I could be

                      D
anything you want me to be. 

        A                 G              D
Top or bottom. Face the monster, let him know.

       A           G                D
I was born to entertain, so here i go.

         A                G               D
Top or bottom. Face the monster, let him know.

       A           G               D
I was born to entertain, so here i go.. once more


       A              G             D

     A             G          D
