Verse 
D            G      F          C  
 Well I went walking out yesterday 
D          G          F         C 
 A man was carrying a sign that says 
D             G     F     C 
"The world is gonna end tomorrow" 
F                 C 
 Hey buddy, got a nickel I can borrow?

This rotten world's gonna chew you up 
G           F              C             D 
Swallow you whole and then spit you back out 
    G          Bm        F           C 
The sooner you recognize this simple fact

Then this rotten world gives you what you lack

 Ol' Miss Headtrip, she's gettin' down

 You don't see her much walking 'round town 
D               G            F              C 
 Well you could say that she needs a little lovin' 
F                            C 
Looking for a light with her head in the oven

This rotten world's gonna chew you up

 Miss Kovaleva, she's lookin' good 
D            G               F        C 
 Walkin' her ass through the neighbourhood 
D          G         F              C 
 She knows something that you don't know 
F                             C 
Something she learned about a long time ago
