[Verse 1]
[D]An [G]ins[D]pir[G]ati[A]onal t[D]irade[G]
again[D]st me [G]How to [Em]explain [G]my lif[A]e?
[D]Boys to the left of me girls to the right
of me [G]neither husband nor [A]wife
Though the [D]days are filled with [Bm]pain there
is [G]no one who'll ex[Gm]plain why
[D]I'm coming [Bbaug]under friendly fire
[Em]Shot [G]in [Em]the fatal cau[Bbdim]se of rock-and-roll but bu[F#]t but[F#m] there[Bm]'s nothing,[Em]
really [Bbdim]nothing, [Asus4]to say
[A]Why

[Verse 2]
[D]I endure under for[G]ce ma[Asus4]
[D]jeure [G]slander without shame or [A]tact
[D]I who studied make-up,
mime mime and Buddha who taught [G]two generations to re[A]act
About [D]me the critics [Bm]lied I ig
[G]nored them and sur[Gm]vived
In spite [D]of coming under
[Bbaug]friendly fire shot in t[G]he fatal
[Em]Caus[Bbdim]e of rock-and-roll I I I h[F#m]ave no[Bm]thing,[Em]
really [Bbdim]nothing, [A]to den[D]y[F]
When I look [Am]back my [Gm]eye
s are filled with [C]tears
[C#]Danger to [C]mascara, ap[Fm]plause to my
[Gdim]peer s[Bbdim][Gm][Bbdim][A]
When [D]fame sustained me and
[G]arenas acclaimed me
[D]I f[G]loated thr[Em]ough life in a clo[A]ud of
[D]love and insanity and pagan [G]profanity
[D]Befor[G]e a worshiping cro[A]wd
Now [D]my status is ill-defined

[Verse 3]
[Bm]As As an i[G]con I'm incl[Gm]ined to be
[D]coming und[Bbaug]er friendly fire
[G]Shot in the [Em]fatal cause
[Bbdim]of rock-and-roll
But [F#m]But Bu[Bm]t whatev[Em]er dull or
[A]clever points they've [F#m]scored[Bm]
I have [Em]never, oh no nev[A]er, been ignored
[D]
