 A          C
It's hidden far away,

 G                D
But someday I may tell.

 A                E 
The tale of metal tangle,

 Em                  D               
When into your world I fell.

 A                C
Without you now I wander,

 G               D
Soaking secretly afraid.

 A                   E 
'Cause in your grasp the fears don't last,

 Em                   D                 
And some of them have stayed.
Chorus:
 A               D         E
I wheeled around because I didn't,

 D                A
Hear what you had said.

 A           D           E
And saw you dancing with Elihu,

 D             A
Up on Leemor's bed.

 A        D            E
And I was foggy rather groggy,

 D                 A
You helped me to my car.

 A          D              E
The binding belt enclosing me,

 D             A
A sample in a jar.
Instrumental Break 1 A C G D A E Em D Verse 2:
 A                       C
And on the market stands unfolding,

               G                 D
With all their willies and their wares.

 A           E 
I shuffle by alert but numb,

 Em                    D                   
To all the glances and the glares.

 A                 C
And I think of you unheeding,

 G                    D
All the times I raise my cup,

 A              E 
It's now I know that you knew,

 Em                   D                
That I'd soon end up, end up.
(Repeat Chorus) Bridge:
 A                      C        
You tricked me like the others,

    D           A
And now I don't belong,

 C                    D 
The simple smiles and good times,

 D       E 
Seem all wrong.
(Repeat Chorus) Coda: A D E
 D             A
A sample in a jar.
A D E
 D             A
A sample in a jar.
A D E
 D             A
A sample in a jar.
