[Intro 1]
[G][Am]
[G]

[Verse 1]
He's a [Dm]WHAT?
he's a WHAT?
He's a newspaper man
And he [F]gets his best ideas
From a newspaper stand;
From his [Am]boots to his pants
To his comments and his rants
He knows that [G]any little article will do!

[Verse 2]
Though he ex[Dm]presses
some confusion
Bout his part in the plan,
And he [F]can't understand
That he's not in command;
The de[Am]cisions underwritten
By the cash in his hand
Bought a [G]sweater for
His weimariner too

[Verse 3]
Now I'm no [Dm]mad man,
But that's insanity
Feast before [F]famine,
And more before family
Goes and [Am]shows up with
More bowls and more
Cups and the [G]ri ot for the
Last hot meal erupts
Cor[Dm]rupts his hard drive
Through the leanest months
Shells out [F]the hard cash
For the sickest [Am]stunts;
On aftershave, on gasoline
He [G]flips the page and turns
The [Dm]scene

[Verse 4]
In [Dm]my mind I'm drowning [F]butterflies
Broken dreams [Am]and alibis;
[G]That's fine.
[D]I'v[Dm]e seen my palette blown
To [F]monochrome-
Hollow heart
[Am]Clicks hollowtone,
It's [G]time.

[Verse 5]
[Dm]Eye on authority,
Thumb prints a forgery
[F]Boy, ain't it crazy what the
Lights can do
For [Am]counterfeit community;
Every opportunity
[G]Wasted as the space
Between the flash tattoo

[Verse 6]
And the [Dm]half- hearted hologram,
Posed for the party
Now he gloss full [F]bleed
On a deaf dumb tree
[Am]Cod liver dollar signs,
[Dm]Credit card [Am]autograph
[G]Down for the record

[Verse 7]
But not for freedom
[Dm]Angry young mannequin
American, apparently
[F]Still to the rhythm
Better get to the back of me
[Am]Can 't stand the vision,
Better tongue the anatomy
[G]Gold plated overhead,
Blank transparency
In the [Dm]days of old,
You were a nut
Now you need [F]three bumps
Before you cut
Not that [Am]I should care about,
Nothing [Dm]I ain't scared of, [Am]but
I guess you [G]had
To
Be
[Dm]There.

[Verse 8]
In [Dm]my mind I'm breeding bu[F]tterflies,
Broken dreams, and [Am]alibis
That's [G]fine.
[D]I'v[Dm]e seen my palette
Blown to [F]monochrome
Hollow heart
[Am]Clicks hollowtone
In [G]time.

[Verse 9]
[Dm]I see you figured in your ac t[F]ion pose
Foam- [Am]injected axl rose,
Life [G]size
[Dm]Should something shake you
And you drop the news,
[F]Lord, just keep your dancin[Am]g shoes
Off [G]mine

[Outro 1]
[G][Dm]
