(Play tab above throughout verse)
A cripple walks amongst you all,
you tired human beings
He's got all the things a cripple has
not two working arms and legs
And vital parts fall from his system
and dissolve in Scottish rain
D G A Vitally he doesn't miss them He's too fucked up to care
[Chorus]
D G A Bm Is that you in front of me? Coming back for even more of exactly the same? D G A Bm You must be a masochist, to love a modern leper on his last leg.

[Verse 2]
(2nd verse same chords as 1st)
I've crippled your heart a hundred times
and still can't work out why
See, I've got this disease, I can't shake and I'm just rattling through life
Well, oh, this is how we do things now,
yeah this is how the modern stay scared
So I cut out all the good stuff Yeah,
I cut off my foot to spite my leg
[Chorus]
D G A Bm Is that you in front of me? Coming back for even more of exactly the same? D G A Bm You must be a masochist, to love a modern leper on his last leg. G D G A Bm I am ill but I'm not dead and I don't know which of those I'd prefer D G A Bm Because that limb which I have lost, it was the only thing holding me up G (strumming rhythm changes) D A Bm G D A Bm G Holding me uuuuuuuuuuuppp
[Bridge]
D A Bm G I'm lying on the ground now and you walk in through the only door D A Bm G Well, I have lost my eyesight like I said I would But I still knowwwww
[Verse]
A D G That that is you in front of me A Bm G and you are back for even more of exactly the same D G A Bm G Well, are you a masochist? You love a modern leper on his last leg D G A Bm G You're not ill and I'm not dead. Doesn't that make us the perfect pair? D G You should sit with me and we'll start again. A Bm And you can tell me all about what you did today G D What you did today.
