Ian Hunter - Apathy 83

^Em I'm standing on the edge of Ve^Gsuvius^Em, my mouth is running ^Gdry ^Em Drunk on wine and ^Gwisdom^Em, giving it all a^Gway ^Am Old enough to hate to^Am/Gmorrow, young e^Am/F#nough not to know where to ^Grun Oh, there ^Gain't no ^D/F#rock and ^Emroll no ^Dmore, just the ^Cmusic ^Dof the ^Gyoung

And it's^Em, apathy for the ^Gdevil^Em. Apathy for the ^Gdevil ^Em Apathy for the ^Gdevil^C, and apat^Dhy for ^Gsome

^Em The moon shines brightly on ^Gsome summer lawn^Em, and envy caught ^Glike a leaf ^Em Comes floating down upon this ^Gfrozen desert sand^Em, spitting bullets through the ^Gnight ^Am The siren wails on the ^Am/Gambulance, compassion ^Am/F#touches my head and it ^Gbleeds Oh, there ^Gain't no ^D/F#rock and ^Emroll no ^Dmore, just the ^Csickly ^Dsound of ^Ggreed

And it's^Em, apathy for the ^Gdevil^Em. Apathy for the ^Gdevil ^Em Apathy for the ^Gdevil^C, and apat^Dhy for the ^Gcreed

^Am No more ^Cgardens for the ^Ggardenless.^D/F# No ^Emmore ^Chavens for the haven^G/Bless ^Am No more ^Chelpers for the ^Ghelplessness.^D/F# No ^Emmore ^Csomethings for a ^Gless For the ^Claw is now the ^Glawless, and the ^Cflaw is now the ^Gflawless And the ^Ccrime is now ac^Gcepted, and the ^Ccriminal re^Gspected And now ^Cevil gets e^Glected, and now ^Csinful get se^Glected See a ^Cpresident proven ^Grotten, now of^Cficially for^Ggotten Was it your General ^DSheridan who once said "The only good, good man is a dead good man." It was ^Bnot me babe^Em

N.C.

I just said keep your head `n your bread well down under them ^Emfloorboards, ^Gkeyboards^{Em G}

^Em And you, you look like you've ^Ggone with the wind^Em, running naked through the ^Gstreets ^Em Wired out, tired out, ^Gtranscendental mental^Em, only laughing in your ^Gsleep ^Am Nostalgia is ^Am/Gstarting to focus too late, i^Am/F#magination is starting to ^Gitch Oh, there ^Gain't no ^D/F#rock and ^Emroll no ^Dmore, just the ^Cmusic ^Dof the ^Grich

And then it's^Em, apathy for the ^Gdevil^Em. Apathy for the ^Gdevil ^Em Apathy for the ^Gdevil. ^CApathy^D's at fever pitch^G
