G
Fame can have strange effects
Money can have strange effects

Chorus:
G
I ask myself, "Is it a sin?"
To be flexible when the boat comes in
D#                           G
Open the window and out go ideals

Drink can alter you
Girls can have strange effects, too

Chorus:
I ask myself, "Is it a sin?"
To be flexible when the boat comes in
Open the window and out go ideals

We all know boats don't last
We all know cars are fast

Chorus - x3

I ask myself, "Is it a sin?"
To be flexible when the boat comes in
