Verse 1
B            A                E
I think you caught me on the downslide, downturn

B            A           E               G
I was busy writing with a pen and paper thin dream

B            A                   E
And all your plastic people with plastic hearts and smiles

B            A               E            G   G
They had the worst intentions all along after all

 G    G    G
All, All, All
Strumming Chords 1 B E x4 Verse 2
B            A             E                         B
The royal castle holds the mellow drama kings and queens

                A             E                    G
And all their dazzling children, they’re so regal, so clean

B                A             E
With pristine fingertips, they wash behind their ears

B                A                 E        G
Then let their hair down ‘til the audiences leave

  G    G       G    G
Leave, Leave, Leave Leave
