From the album Useless Trinkets


[Intro]
D  G  F  C  x2

[Verse]
D            G      F          C 
 Well I went walking out yesterday
D          G          F         C
 A man was carrying a sign that says
D             G     F     C
"The world is gonna end tomorrow"
F                 C
 Hey buddy, got a nickel I can borrow?

[Chorus]
G           F             C        G
This rotten world's gonna chew you up
G           F              C             D
Swallow you whole and then spit you back out
    G          Bm        F           C
The sooner you recognize this simple fact
     G           F               C        G
Then this rotten world gives you what you lack

G  F  C  G

[Verse]
D         G        F              C 
 Ol' Miss Headtrip, she's gettin' down
D          G            F              C
 You don't see her much walking 'round town
D               G            F              C
 Well you could say that she needs a little lovin'
F                            C
Looking for a light with her head in the oven

[Chorus]
G           F             C        G
This rotten world's gonna chew you up
G           F              C             D
Swallow you whole and then spit you back out
    G          Bm        F           C
The sooner you recognize this simple fact
     G           F               C        G
Then this rotten world gives you what you lack

 Miss Kovaleva, she's lookin' good
D            G               F        C
 Walkin' her ass through the neighbourhood
D          G         F              C
 She knows something that you don't know
F                             C
Something she learned about a long time ago

[Chorus]
G           F             C        G
This rotten world's gonna chew you up
G           F              C             D
Swallow you whole and then spit you back out

The sooner you recognize this simple fact
     G           F               C        G
Then this rotten world gives you what you lack
G           F             C        G
This rotten world's gonna chew you up
