The song:

A D
A D

A                             D
These walls are paper thin and everyone hears every little sound.

A                                  D
Everyone's a voyeur as they're watching me watch them watch me right now.
They're shaking hands they're ahaking in their shoes oh lord donn't shake me down.
Everyone wants two of them and half of everyone else is around.
It's been agreed the whole world stinks so no one's taking showers anymore.

Switch to simply strumming the A chord:


A                  D
Laugh hard--it's a long ways to the bank

A               D
I can't be blamed for nothing anymore.

A                    D
It's been a long time since you've been around.

A                  D
Laugh hard--it's a long ways to the bank


A D Bm Cm

A        D        Bm         Cm
Tow the line to tax the time you know that you don't owe.

A      D       Bm      Cm
I can't be a fool for every one that I don't know.

And repeat the whole damn thing.
