                G                        C
Another Shirley Temple, another Cain and Abel
                        Am                         D
There's nothing out the window, and nothing on the table

                    G                           C
This life is like a sad list, strong across the Nation
                     Am                              D
If I miss you at the soundcheck, I'll see you at the station

          Em              G            C              G
There's a beast inside of me, and he's not bad compa- ny
       C                       Em    G      D
But he speaks in tongues I can never under- stand
             Am                  C     D       G
He says it's one more show and a penny for the band

               G                       C
Keep everybody dancing, keep everybody spending
                  Am                            D
I know I am not a good man, but I can keep pre- tending

               G                             C
I made it in a doorway, your dress is like a dark vale
                  Am                          D
But I'm not going your way, I'm going back to heartache

       Em                G             C                   G
With a bottle of Burgun- dy, where she waits on the balco- ny
       C                   Em    G      D
With a northern wish and a daisy in her hand
           Am                           D       G
To send me all her love and a C`penny for the band

          Em              G         C             G
There's a beast inside of me, and I miss my fami- ly
          C               Em     G       D
All these pages and these stages made of sand
            Am                  C     D       Em   A
Still, it's one more show and a penny for the band
Am                  C     D       G
One more show and a penny for the band
