[Verse 1]
He can [D]remember
hearing words of won[G]der[Em]
[A]"failure is on the in[D]side"
So often does he [G]won[Em]der
[A]How hard it is without [D]a guide

[Verse 2]
This [D]manipulator of [G]crazes[Em]
He can [A]win any race that [D]you name
Like a disease he comes in [G]stages[Em]
And af[A]fects everybody

[D]He keeps his

[Verse 4]

his [G]mat[Em]tress
And his [A]conscience in his [D]pocket

He has [A]two eyes to each [D]socket

Now here's a thing, a [G]very silly [Em]thing
He say's it's [A]easy easy

He say's [A]you steal from a broken
[D]brazilian

[F#m]He gets his kicks on a fatal crash
And he [G]carries a sign that screams
[A]"red is a mean,
[D]mean [G]colour [Em]!"[D][Bm]

[Verse 7]
Life's a game of [A]colours
[Bm]and shades
Llife's an ugly [A]hue

Swimming to the grey ho[G]rizon[Em]
Try[A]ing to escape the en[D]emy

[Verse 9]
Who can [D]quote from a thousand
young [G]poets[Em]
And with a [A]flag on his backhe can [D]shine
