^F#There was honor ^Famong the ^D#theive^C#s The only ^Btruth I ^A#could be^G#m6lieve But when the lies applied to me and mine They're better left unsaid

We could write the hit parade Outside the masquerade The headache comes in tidal waves

^BThe spoils ^A#of the ^G#m6spoiled B A# F#... The spoils of the spoiled

...F D# C# B A# C# The lines of history Became the scenery It's strictly an accessory An image to uphold But it's all in fun and sin Until someone calls it in The cycle comes around again
