[Or a more simple intro]
G C D G x2
[Verse]
GYou started drinking the Kool-Aid
CWe were taking the bait
DWe were talking big talk
GNever playing it safe
GLooking good as Jane Fonda
COn a Vietnam tank
DCan't get something for nothing
GHave to energize your base
[Pre Chorus]
CBut she was young enough
CShe was blonde enough
CShe was about a perfect tGen
CHad millions of admirers
Cbut not a single frieDnd
[Chorus]
GAnd it's a, it's a little uncannyC what she managed to do
Become a syDmbol for a pCain she never kGnew
[Intro Riff]
G C D G
[Verse]
GYou know old Ronnie Reagan
CHe was a shoe salesman's son
DHe got himself in the movies
GHe impressed everyone
GHe thought trial by fire
CWas America's fate
DHe made a joke of the poor people
GAnd that made him a saint
[Pre Chorus]
CBut he was tan enough, he was rich enough
CHe was handsome like John GWayne
CAnd there was no one at the country club
Who didn't feel the sDame
[Chorus]
But it's aG, it's a little uncanny
CWhat he managed to do
DGot me to read those RusCsian authors through and thrGough
[Intro Riff]
G C D G
[Verse]
GI miss Christopher Hitchens
CI miss Oliver Sacks
DI miss poor Robin Williams
GI miss Sylvia Plath
GEvery morning's a desert
CEvery night is a flood
DThey say a party can kill you
Well someGtimes I wish it would
[Pre Chorus]
CBut I'll get strong enough, I'll be man enough
CTo keep myself in cGheck
C'Cause all my friends that flew to town
CSaid that's what they eDxpect
[Chorus]
GBut it's a, it's a little uncanny
CWhat they managed to do
DMade me admit to thingsC I knew were never tGrue
