   Here’s a true story said someone to me yesterday said he heard it in a taxi
C#M                        C                G                            Em
   Must have had him at my mercy drown that poor thing put it out of its misery
                    Am             C                G        
Condemn it to its future deny its history- deny its history.

VERSE 2 WORDS

Look through my venetian blinds dusting the past off my mind seeing orange everywhere.
I’d go to Patagonia but its harder there I’ll do anything to prove I care.
Fascinated by good destroyed by evil what is left to believe in?

That’s it, just listen to the song and you’ll pick it up quite easily.
