| VERSE:
| |
| A . . . Well it was
| |
| C#m. . . Way past dawn
| |
| A7. . . D . . . And we were thinking of moving on
| |
| A . . . Till the judge pointed out
| |
| A . . . E . . . E . . . I was overdue for a trial
| |
| A . . . And at that
| |
| C#m. . . I was fat
| |
| A7 . . . D . . . And had nothing to recommend me
| |
| A . . . E . . . But he couldn't proceed with no record of my denial.

| CHORUS:
| |
| D . . . E7 . . . People on every side of me

| |

| I had thought
| |
| I had bought
| |
| All the important things that I knew I'd been taught
| |
| Till one day I found
| |
| I'd misunderstood them all
| |
| So I asked
| |
| What was right
| |
| 'Cause it kept me awake the whole bloody night
| |
| But they never ever did return the call.
| |
| | |
| People on every side of me
| |
| Taking my business so seriously
| |
| In every way, I know they've got me bested
| |
| Spending my time in the usual way
| |
| While they mark down the exact time of day
| |
| I'd like to laugh, but I'd probably be arrested.
| |
| | |
| It was time
| |
| To go back
| |
| 'Cause I had used up the supplies in my traveling pack
| |
| And I didn't see any point in hanging on
| |
| I was stopped
| |
| At the gate
| |
| By a lady who said it was much too late
| |
| To ever read the writing on the lawn.
| |
| | |
| People on every side of me
| |
| Taking my business so seriously
| |
| And all the time I keep on being re-tested
| |
| Watching the world as it floats away
| |
| While they've noted down the exact time of day
| |
| They say my mental growth has been arrested.
