E
Mike was right when he said I'd put up
AEABA fight to be someone, a fight to be me
E
But see now, I'm down
Under the pavement
AEAB
Of capital hills and lowercase people
C#AF#B
As time rolls by my dreams have become
G#C#
That which is attainable
B
Not what I'm looking for!
EBC#GG#A
I've got the company car
EG#AC
I'm the one swinging at two below par
EB
Yeah, I've become one with the ones
C#A
That I've never believed in
EG#A
But I've got the company car
E
I'm the king of things I've always despised
AE
I'm the gingerbread man
AB
who got eaten alive
E
I'm half-baked! I'm fake!
But see I've got hotels on
AE
Park Place and Boardwalk
AB
And two hundred bucks
C#AF#B
I pass go but, oh! Life's taken its toll
G#C#B
Have I won Monopoly to forfiet my soul?
EBC#GG#A
I've got the company car
EG#AC
I'm the one swinging at two below par
EB
Yeah, I've become one with the ones
C#A
That I've never believed in
EG#A
But I've got the company car
BC#
All the king's horses
A#C
At the foot of the wall
AB
They're taking pictures of
G#A#
The man who's lost all of his
A
Masks of pretension
E
He's got two faces left
AF#
His is the one that he hides
A
On the left behind that smile...
No guitar for 1st half of this Verse:
Hiding tears and fear
That burns like an engine
It drives him away
From the ones that he loves
E
Mike was right:
"Hey Mike! We're one and the same;
AE
we're the faceless combatants
AB
in the lonliest game"
C#AF#B
Ah but say, I'll wave as I'm driving by
G#C#
With that smirk in my eye, yelling
B
"Hey! I'm something man, check me out!"
EBC#GG#A
I've got the company car
EG#AC
I'm the one swinging at two below par
EB
Yeah, I've become one with the ones
C#A
That I've never believed in
EG#A
But I've got the company car
EG#A
But I've got the company car
EG#AG#F#F#G#A
But I've got the company car
