Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
The [D]dirty tricks department
[G]is working over[D]time
Trying to stop the candidate from
[C]getting [G]this [D]time
The wheels are now in motion
[G]all the traps are [D]set
Under this commotion will [C]he walk
in[D]to this mess

[Verse 2]
[D]
The state's intoxicated
they're [G]at the starting [D]gate
He may never make it to
[C]the planned [G]TV de[D]bate
He can't fight off the big bucks
[G]of [D]the old brigade
He's gotta watch his step in [C]this
[D]smear campaign

[Verse 3]
[D]
[A]They called a snap election
in the summer heat
This town is reeling backwards like
a drunk man on [D]the streets[A]
[D]
[G]Feed those lies,
bend those minds at any [D]price
[G]Foul or air as long as he's
not there election [A]time

[Interlude 1]
[A][D]

[Verse 4]
[D]Don't believe the papers it's not
[G]any body's [D]race
He's not a rank beginner it's
[C]not a chil[D]dren's game
He may get the nomination if he
[G]breaks through [D]the chain
Or they'll shoot him down on main
street in [C]this [D]smear campaign

[Verse 5]
[D]
Just watch the party faithful [G]fuel
the dream machine
[D]They've fudged up all the issues
eat [C]that [D]scandal sheet
The dirty tricks department
[G]is nearly half [D]insane
Trying to stop the candidate with
[C]a s[D]mear campaign
