A          F#m    C#m
Don't think me unkind
A         F#m      C#m
Words are hard to find
A             F#m                C#m
They're only cheques I've left unsigned
A                  F#m         C#m
From the banks of chaos in my mind
D                           E
And when their eloquence escapes me
D                           E      D
Their logic ties me up and rapes me

Chorus:
 A
De do do do de da da da
   E                       D
Is all I want to say to you
  A
De do do do de da da da
      E                             D
Their innocence will pull me through
 A
De do do do de da da da
   E                       D
Is all I want to say to you
 A
De do do do de da da da
         E                             D
They're meaningless and all that's true

Poets, priests, and politicians
Have words to thank for their positions
Words that scream for your submission
And no one's jamming their transmission
'Cause when their eloquence escapes you
Their logic ties you up and rapes you

Chorus - x2
