Dm                          A    
If I gave up the seat I'd been saving  
        Dm              Bb  
To some elderly lady or man  
      C  
Am I being a good boy  
            C7       F  
Am I your pride and joy  
        Bb             Eb           F  
Mother please if your please, say I am  
  
  
        Dm                        A  
And if while in the course of my duty  
      Dm                  Bb   
I perform an unfortunaty  
           C  
Would you punish me so,  
     C7       F  
unbelievably so  
        Bb          Eb           F   
Never again will I make that mistake   
  
  
     Bbsus4                  F7  
This feeling inside me could never deny me  
                            Bb                     
The right to be wrong if I choose  
          Bbm   
And this pleasure I get  
          F  
From say winning a bet  
       Eb          F  
Is to lose  
  
  
          Dm                     A  
When I'm drinking my Bonaparte Shandy  
        Dm                    Bb   
Eating more than enough apple pies  
         C                          C7         F  
Will I glance at my screen and see real human beings  
           Bb  
Starve to death  
          Eb         F  
Right in front of my eyes  
  
  
        Dm                         A7  
Nothing old, nothing new, nothing ventured  
        Dm               Dm7          Bb  
Nothing gained, nothing still-born or lost  
         C                         C7           F    
Nothing further than proof nothing wilder than youth  
        Bb                        C   
Nothing older than time nothing sweeter than wine  
          A          A7         Dm          Dm7  
Nothing physically, recklessly, hopelessly blind  
        Bb  
Nothing I couldn't say  
         Gm         C7  
Nothing why 'cos today  
          F  
Nothing rhymed
