      D
I do not understand
        D7            D6
What it is I've done wrong
         D
Full of holes, check for pulse
           D7
Blink your eyes
         D6           D
One for yes, two for no
D7          D6            D
I have no idea what I am talking about
D7                  D6                  D
I'm trapped in this body and can't get out

A#                       D
Ooh ooh ooh ooooh ooooooh
A#                       D
Ooh ooh ooh ooooh ooooooh

You killed the sound, removed backbone
A pale imitation with the edges all
Sawn off
I have no idea what you are talking about
Your mouth moves only with
someone's hand up your arse

A#
Ooh ooh ooh ooooh ooooooh

        Gm
Has the light gone out for you?
             Dm
Because the light's gone out for me
            C
It is the twenty-first century
           Gm7
It is the twenty-first century

It can follow you like a dog
It brought me to my knees
They got a skin and they put me in
They got a skin and they put me in

All the lines wrapped 'round my face
All the lines wrapped 'round my face
And for anyone else to see
And for anyone else to see

       F Gm D# F Gm D# G# G
I'm a lie

D7               D6                D
Nonono nononono nononono nononono no
Nonono nononono nononono nononono no
Nonono nononono nononono nononono no

D7
I've seen it coming
They've seen it coming
D6
They've seen it coming
                   D
They've seen it coming
