[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]This week's cash for last week's
grass your [C]crew collates
While you [G]sit [Am]in the van and wait
[G]Gassed and trashed and smashed,
young cads roasting [C]away
[G]On a [Am]sunny summer day or, [D]okay,
an August night [Em]any way
[G][C]

[Verse 2]
And you're liv[G]ing [Am]on a[D]ir,
while on the 25th floor up [Em]there
They'd fan a million [C]bucks be
[Am]fore [C]your [G]face[D]
Marie's [C]passed out in a [G]chair [D]with
her once fussed-over hair
[Em]hair
All mussed into an? [C]I've just
[Am]been [C]fucked [D]shape

[Verse 3]
Just [D]an hour before,
she [G]crashed, all cashed
She said, I'm done with looking back,
and [C]you look [D]your [C]age
Which [Am]is thirty-seven, by by the w[D]ay,
and not twenty-eight
[Em]An

[Verse 4]
[G]d A[C]nd fucking let them[G] star[Am]e
[D]because at this point I don't car[Em]e
I have been your bride stripped
[C]bare [Am]since [C]?98[D]
And our sil[C]ver-screen affair, af[D]fair,
it weighs less to me than [Em]air
It's a gas now, [C]it's a laugh,
just [Am]how f[G]ar s[D]everal mil can take it

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][Am][C][D][C][G][C]

[Verse 5]
[G]This week's fast as last week's
flash of inter[C]state
When you [Am]starved and never ate
[G]This week's splashed a sick,
gold cast across your [C]face
[G]As you [Am]roam on silk, ripped tippy-toe alone
[D]alone through Silver [Em]lake

[Verse 6]
[C]
Splayed astride a snow-white mare,
[D]mare, on a non-stop all-night tear
tear
[Em]tear
What a ghastly sight you
[C]smear in [G]every [C]face[D]
In that [C]fat, fur-trimmed affair af[D]fair
that your lawyer lets you [Em]wear
You'll destroy your chance to [C]ever [Am]get r[C]e [D]peatedly engaged

[Outro 1]

[G][C][G][C][Am][Em][Am][C]
