Verse:
C#m A
Oh what's the use in trying
C#m A E
Thick as thieves and packs of lies
C#m A

All my seas are drops of rain
C#m A E
Drunk as sailors drinking from your hand

C#m A E
All the time, it ends in nothing
C#m A E
Oh, what's the use in trying now?
C#m A
Burn all the canvases
C#m A E
They painted up the queens in crutches
C#m A E
Trial to see how they all see you now
