It'[Cm7]s easy some[F9]times we just [Cm7]coast along[F9]
[Cm7]But like it or not [F9]something always [Cm7]seems to go [F9]wrong
Cm7 f9 Cm7 F9
Sometimes people build you up just so they can knock you down
[Cm7]Sometimes they will ha[F9]ve you there because they [Cm7]need someone aro[F9]und
[Cm7]Perhaps you'll rec[F9]eive invitation[Cm7]s for tea[F9]
[Cm7]or perhaps you will l[F9]augh and you wi[Cm7]ll make them all sm[F9]ile
[Cm7]Or maybe you'll [F9]join them cause t[Cm7]hey have to be[F9]
[Cm7]Perhaps you'll forg[F9]et that yo[Cm7]u forgot for a while[F9]
[Cm7]Birds of a f[F9]eather are [Cm7]flocking outsi[F9]de (4x)
Cm7 F9 (4x)
like whippets they dance in a curly queue dance
of pulses and ringing and campfire chants
of ritual drumming although at first glance
you thought you could run but you won't take a chance
it's not an experience if they can't bring someone along
they hang on emotions they bottle inside
they peck at the ground and they strut out of stride
