Nothing Rhymed

Bm F#/A# D G D


[Verse]

     Bm                         F#/A#
If I give up the seat I've been saving
        D               G
To some elderly lady or man
     A
Am I being a good boy
                    D
Am I your pride and joy
       Em                         C   D
Mother please if your pleased say I am


[Verse 2]

     Bm                         F#/A#
And if while in the course of my duty
        D               G
I perform an unfortunate take
          A                          D
Would you punish me so, unbelievably so
       Em                       C    D
Never again will I make that mistake


[Bridge]

     Am               D
This feeling inside me could never deny me
    Am          D          G
The right to be wrong if I choose
         Gm
And this pleasure I get
     D
From say winning a bet
      E/D  C  D
Is to lose


[Verse 3]

     Bm                        F#/A#
When I'm drinking my Bonaparte Shandy
       D                      G
Eating more than enough apple pies
       A                                      D
Will I glance at my screen and see real human beings
          Em
Starve to death
                     C    D
Right in front of my eyes


[Verse 4]

        Bm                        F#/A#
Nothing old, nothing new, nothing ventured
        D                             G
Nothing gained, nothing still-born or lost
        A                                      D
Nothing further than proof nothing wilder than youth
        Em                      A
Nothing older than time nothing sweeter than wine
        F#                      Bm
Nothing physically, recklessly, hopelessly blind
        Em
Nothing I couldn't say
        A
Nothing why 'cos today
        D    Bm        G   A  D
Nothing rhymed nothing rhymed
