If I were you, I'd treat them better

          F#m
If I were you, I'd settle the weather

If chaos is a ladder, hell is heaven sent

G       A            F#m                              F#m  Em
Keep pullin' at the thread while cashin' in the cheque

 A                  F#m
Think you're pretty wily, blowin' up the sun?

     A           F#m
Confuse a loaded question with a smokin' gun

G    Em               F#m
You move like Dunning-Kruger, truth is overdone

G   A             F#m                     F#m Em
A father like his son, look after number one, yeah
