[Verse 1]
[C]It's
[G][C]
[G][D][Em]
[F][G][Am]
just
a television wonderland
It's one [C]more fairytale about a rich bitch
Lying by the [G]swimming pool
Life is so cool
[Em]Easy living when you [F]make
the [Em]rules[Am]
Last friday was the first time
It [C]only took about a half a minute
On the [G]stairway
It was child's play
The odds turn out [Em]even when
[F]you give up believing in

[Verse 2]
The
[C]Cold law, steel claw
Try to get on board you find
the lock is on the door
Well I say [G]no way
Don't try to [D]keep me [Em]out
or there'll be [F]hell to pay
I don't know [C]who's right or who's wrong
It really doesn't matter when
you're lying in the
Gutter
[G]It's a see saw
A [D]long [Em]battle with the [F]cold law
Is what you get for [G]messing
with the [Am]steel claw

[Verse 3]
[Am]
The politicians have
forgotten this place
Except for [C]a flying visit
in a black Mercedes
On elec[G]tion time
They cross the line
And everybody [Em]runs to
watch the [F]pantomime
[Am]If they could see what's
going on around here
So many [C]people hanging onto the edge
Crying out for revolu[G]tion
Retribution
The odds [D]turn out [Em]even
When [F]you give up believing in the

[Verse 4]
[C]Cold law, steel claw
Try to get on board you find
the lock is on the door
Well I say [G]no way
Don't try to [D]keep me [Em]out
or there'll be [F]hell to pay
I don't know who's [C]right
or who's wrong
It really doesn't matter when
you're lying in the
Gutter
It's [G]a see saw
A [D]long [Em]battle with the [F]cold law
Is what you get for [G]messing with the [Am]steel

[Verse 5]
Sometimes I think I'm going [Am]crazy
Sometimes [C]I do a line,
makes me laugh
Makes me wanna take a [G]joyride
On the high tide
Sometimes I'm [Em]contemplating
[F]suicide[Am]
Meanwhile Eddy is on the west coast
I know [C]he's making out with
some sweet senorita
[G]Up in Frisco
You and I know
The odds turn out [Em]even
Whe [F]you give up believing in the
