G                                           A
funny you swear you got nowhere special to go

               Am		    D  C
but I know you will, before too long

G					
always there, standing there

			     A
staring at the hole in the robe

              Am                   D C
like it was a place somebody would go

G    D        Am       (Am/E)?           G B Em
con-fusion is king, the talk of your town

G			  A		   Am	
with the hollywood design, knowing everyone

	             G B Em
would you cover mine?

G					  A
you spoke softer than anybody i ever heard

			Am	    D C
softer than the vel-vet in your hair 

G						   A
tying back black laughin' back (?), black as a bird

    		Am		       D  C		  
i live in a cage, and i could take you there

G    D	  Am		(Am/E)?         G B Em
con-fusion is king, the talk of your town

G			      A
streets, i'm living with the pain

		     Am	               G B Em	 
this is what you see always looking down

G					     A
hanging out, let her (?) can't tell how to behave

		     Am		     D C
with her on the stage i hear your serm (?)

G                                               A
animals painted in the dark on the walls of the cage

           Am             D  C
pictures i wish you just forget

G   D         Am        (Am/E)?       G B Em
con-fusion is king, the talk of your town

G                   A                       Am
I don't know if you care the meaning of the word

		       G B Em
maybe just yourself

G                                                     A
little things trigger big problems you can wipe out a stain 

            Am                 D C
maybe i destroy what makes you sad

G         				                       A
if you're rid of so many minds buried that you never relay

                   Am                   D C
until your body's numb and it's all too bad

G   D         Am       (Am/E)?         G B Em
con-fusion is king, the talk of the town

G                   A	                   
i don't know how to speak it

		        Am
