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

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
|

|
|
(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
