B
Dear Mr.Bones, I've (we've) had enough
A
You can try to pull us down
B
With your pin-stripe weasel stuff
A
But word travels in this town
B                       A
I wouldn't write home about you
B                    A
We're better off without you
    G           E
Without you, Mr.Bones

Chorus:
      B
Some people feed on other people's troubles
      A
Some people beat on other people's meat
      B
Some people want to bleed us dry
          A
And some people Gonna down on your feet

You said "Boys, I'll get you more
But you have got to pay me by the hour"
Anyways you are just another bore
Who believes he's a superpower
When you talk about loyalty
I just hope you realize
Since you ate my royalties
Mr. Bones this is goodbye

E                         D
This is goodbye and such hereinafter
      C#m
shall be refereed
E                        D         C#m
Not withstanding or foregoing statements preferred
E
Don't claim you understand
      D                  C#m            C
When you've not heard a single word, a dicky bird

Chorus
