[Intro]
Am C F

[Verse 1]
C F Am
Ladies and gents, fold your tents, 'cause we have a winner
C F Am
Come see your Jane try to train every devil in her
C F Am
There's not a man alive who could tame this creature
C F Am
You better leave the professor behind, see what time will teach her
F G C F
And when we've all collected a spectacular sum
F G C F
We'll get a little glimpse of the disaster to come

[Chorus]
Am G
You can justify what happens then
C F
'Cause how could you have known
Am G
Leave the dust to dust and say "amen"
C F
Put "sorry" on the stone
Am Em
You're not not your brother's keeper, now
C F
Your brother's on his own
Am C F Am
That's how the seeds of avarice are sown

[Verse 2]
C F Am
Shit's just a trick and each week's full of compromises
C F Am
She'll push for a fish like a seal clapping for its prizes
C F Am
There's not a man alive who could wake this sleeper
C F Am
Oh, tie the rope, hide the dope, sure there's hope, but denial's cheaper
F G C F
And when we've all collected a spectacular sum
F G C F
We'll get a Holy Roller in to rattle the drum

[Chorus]
Am G
You can justify what happens then
C F
'Cause how could you have known
Am G
Leave the dust to dust and say "amen"
C F
Put "sorry" on the stone
Am Em
You're not not your brother's keeper, now
C F
Your brother's on his own
Am C F Am
That's how the seeds of avarice are sown

[Bridge]
