Am
Pin the bunting on the gallows
Am
Dance around it with your blackface on
Am
And we all made a vacuum, we all made a vacuum for this
Am
Throw your keys into the water
Am
Come and crush me in a Waitrose aisle
Am
You can strain till your tongue splits
Am
Pounding me under your fist

[Pre-Chorus]
F
We didn't think that it would happen and we never will
Dm
We didn't think that it would happen and we never will
A/C#
Yeah I can think of nothing else but this, but this machine
Am/C
I can think of nothing else but this, but this machine

[Chorus]
Dm              Am/C                    F
I'm in my ivory tower, I'm in my ivory ivory I'm in my I'm in my ivory ivory I'm in
A/C#           
I'm in my ivory tower, I'm in my ivory
Dm            Am/C                  F
Hey they did enjoy unscrambling the brain of just a man
                        A/C#
He didn't even think of anything
Dm                 Am/C
All I learned from this
                     F
Was how much I could hate the state we're in
                     A/C#
You'll find me in my tower

[Verse 2]
Am
Do you know what makes me happy?
Am
When I clothe you in a swarm of bees
Am
And the world is my ashtray, the world is my ashtray tonight
Am
Shave my head and call me monkey
Am
Let me see you with the CAPS LOCK on
Am
If we're all apoplectic then I'll be the nitpick alright

[Pre-Chorus]
F
We didn't think that it would happen and we never will
Dm
We didn't think that it would happen and we never will
A/C#
Yeah I can think of nothing else but this, but this machine
Am/C
I can think of nothing else but this, but this machine

[Chorus]
Dm              Am/C                    F
I'm in my ivory tower, I'm in my ivory ivory I'm in my I'm in my ivory ivory I'm in
A/C#            
I'm in my ivory tower, I'm in my ivory
Dm            Am/C                  F
Hey they did enjoy unscrambling the brain of just a man
                        A/C#
He didn't even think of anything
Dm                 Am/C
All I learned from this
                     F
Was how much I could hate the state we're in
                     A/C#
Come find me in my tower

[Solo]
Dm                A                     F                          A
I'm in my ivory tower, I'm in my ivory ivory I'm in my I'm in my ivory ivory I'm in (x6)
