These chord progressions are very Toh Kay's style so it wasn't too hard to figure out
the gist of em. Any and all corrections are welcome! It's a great song that receives the
Toh Kay treatment exceptionally well. Enjoy :)

Did I mention he was dCreaming
When the devil came to E7town
I was awoken by the Amscreaming
But nobody heard a Gsound
And the lies we tell at Fbreakfast
Won't match the lies we share for Amlunch
And the lies we serve for Edinner
They’re the tallest of thFe bunchG, yeah
Did I mention he was Ccold
When he finally lost E7control of the ghost
And the epilogue I Amdreaded
Now seemed likely to cGonsole
And I'm still not Funderstanding
The things he did before heAm left
And the one thing that will Ehaunt me
Is right before his final Fbreath, when he Gsaid
"Oh they brokCe me down, yeah they bGroke me down
So DmI can't be your saint you see, cause IAm won't be hangingG around
And they broke him Cdown, yeah they broke Ghim down
So DmI stood there and I held my breath cause I Amknew that it wouldn't be Glong
Till they broke me Cdown
Instrumental
C G F X4
AmAnd no one holds a Ggrudge dear
Like FI do, I see it Cthrough G Am
And you may not Gremember
It was Fnothing much at the time
CBut I kept it bottled Ginside
E Oh and we Fall know how that goes
E I'd given Fup on letting go
C So here we Amare, with nothing Eleft, dear
And now you've Fleft here
And I was Glast to know
Holy smokes C
Some say he'd given up the E7ghost, but he wouldn't do that
I think he's hiding in the Ambackground
Of his favorite pGhotographs
And he's living as a Fbeggar
Or maybe a millioAmnaire
But the one thing that I'm Esure of
Is he found some comfort Fthere, that's faiGr
Because they broke him Cdown, oh they broke hiGm down
So Dmhe can't be my saint no more, he Amwon't be hangin aGround
Oh no
Instrumental
C G F x4
And they broke him Cdown, yeah they broke him Gdown
He said &Dmquot;I can't be your saint no more becauAmse I won't be haGngin around"
And they broke him Cdown, yeah they broke hiGm down
So DmI stood there and I held my breath because I Gknew that it wouldn't be long
Before they broke me Cdown
