| You think you've got a head for heights be careful, babe, you might fall | |
| G c d | |
| You think you know all your rights but you're at someone's beck and call | |
| G em* c g | |
| You think you've got life on a plate but it's harder to eat than to play | |
| (chorus) | |
| C d g c am g (*riff) | |
| You're in the race you've got a place but that's what they all say | |
| (verse) | |
| You wanna stand in the working man's shoes | |
| And have someone step on your head | |
| You wanna bruise your skin on my teeth | |
| But you just bite me instead | |
| You wanna come down and check out my level | |
| But something stands in your way | |
| (chorus) then (*riff) | |
| (bridge) | |
| Bm c bm c | |
| Standing in the rain you pass by, don't even remember my name | |
| Am d | |
| But baby, baby, this ain't no place for fame | |
| Am d | |
| And it ain't the street, it's the gutter you've got to blame | |
| (verse) | |
| Well, you think you are a real rough diamond | |
| 'cause you can stand to the test | |
| You think if you got a car to climb in you will shine out the best | |
| You think your jewels aren't made out of paste | |
| Believe me they're looking that way | |
| (repeat chorus) then d c# c g | |
| (instrumental-a verse and a chorus) then | |
| (repeat bridge) | |
| (verse) | |
| You think if you got a hall of mirrors you will see every way | |
| You think if you buy a piece of tomorrow someone else has to pay | |
| You think if you can pin someone down they won't get in your way | |
| (repeat chorus (twice) then | |
| C d g c d g c d g | |
| That's what they all say, baby that's what they all say | |
