The Debt Collectors

D

[Verse 1]
D                         C
See, the debt collector's coming
                      G
He's come to break my fingers
                  D    Em     A
So I can't play piano, no, no more
       D                         C
And see, the debt collector's coming
                       G
He's come to take my tongue
                      D   Em   A
So I can't sing any songs any more
            D
I just go "Ah-ha-ah-ha-ah"
                   C
To the top of the pop charts

"Ah-ha-ah-ha-ah"
         G
In your iPods

"Ah-ha-ah"
                     D
That's the sound of silence,
Em         A
Simon and Garfunkel


[Verse 2]
     D                       C
And see, the Grim Reaper is coming
                      G
He's sharpening his scythe
                           D Em A
'Til he can see his own reflection
         D                       C
And you see, the Grim Reaper is crying -
                       G
His business down the drain
                            D
'Cos people do it so much quicker
       Em          A
(And cheaper, and better...)

[Chorus]
D
Ba-da-dum-bum, ba-dum, ba-dum
C
Ba-da-dum-bum, ba-dum, ba-dum
G
Ba-da-dum-bum, ba-dum, ba-dum
Oh
D
And ba-da-dum-bum, ba-dum, ba-dum
C
Ba-da-dum-bum, ba-dum, ba-dum
G
Ba-da-dum-bum, ba-dum, ba-dum
Oh

[Verse 3]
         D                          C
And you see – our Saviour's second coming
                     G
He's such a selfish bastard
                          D   Em   A
(Some of us don't get to come even once)
         D                       C
And you see, his fans avoid my house now
                                     G
'Cos I've signed a sealed deal with Satan
                   D     Em    A
To just love everybody that I can...

[Verse 4]
         D                                      C
And you see, I think the Grim Reaper should go after
                       G
That fucking debt collector
                       D         Em            A
So I can sing whenever I bloody goddamn well please
D                                         C
And our Saviour should just make love to Satan
                       G
So both can see that either

Are terrible
             D   Em   A
Without the other...

[Chorus] (x4)
D
Ba-da-dum-bum, ba-dum, ba-dum
C
Ba-da-dum-bum, ba-dum, ba-dum
G
Ba-da-dum-bum, ba-dum, ba-dum
Oh
D
And ba-da-dum-bum, ba-dum, ba-dum
C
Ba-da-dum-bum, ba-dum, ba-dum
G
Ba-da-dum-bum, ba-dum, ba-dum
Oh
