Audition [The Chateau d'Herouville Sessions] Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Then God, the [Am]director, smells a rat.
[G]Pulls another rabbit from His hat.
Sniffs the air and He [Am]says,
[G][Am][G]
[Am]"Well, that's that I'm going."
The actors [C]milling helplessly

[Verse 2]
[F]The script is blo[G]wing[D] out to sea.
[Dm]But what the hell,
We [E]didn't even pass an audi
[Bm]tion[Em].[G][Am][G][Am]
The lines you'll [C]have to improvise.
[F]The words are wri[G]tten
[Dm]In t[D]he eyes of[Dm] politicians
[E]Who despise their father[Am]s.
[Em][C][Am][Em][C][Am]
And so [C]the play necessitates
[F]That all you boy[Dm]s participate
In fierce competition
To [E]eliminate each other
[Am].
[G][Am][G][Em]

[Verse 3]
And [G]groupies, on their way to war,
Get to [Am]write the [E]next [Em]film score.
[Bm]But the rock [Em]and r[G]oll star
[Em]Knows [G]his [Bm]glory [Am]is really noth[Em]ing.[G]
[Em]Men of religion, o[G]n the [Em]make,
[G]Pledge an [Am]oath they under[Em]take[Bm][G]
[Em]To m[Bm]ake you wh[Em]ite for
[G]God's [Bm]own sake,[Em]
[G]And non[Am]e other.[E][Em]
[Am]While ladies get t[C]heir bedding done
[F]To win themsel[G]ves a b[D]ouncing son,
[Dm]But bad girls do it [E]for the fun
of just be[Am]ing.[G][Am][G]
[Am]And me, I'm here[C] to sing along,
[F]And I'm not concer[Dm]ned with
[D]righting [Dm]wrongs,
Just asking questions [E]that belong
Without an [Am]answer.[G][Am]
But God is laugh[C]ing up his sleeve
[F]As He pours him[G]self ano[D]ther cup of tea,
[Dm]And He waves goodbye
[E]to you and me,
At least for [Am]now.
[Em][C][Am][C][G][C][E]
