Banker And A Liar
View chords used in this chart
Am C
You played sapphire to the swine
Am C
With his chalices of wine
Em Am
And his niece who wears your penis like a crown
Am C
All that power has escaped you
Am C
Though you toiled all the day through
Em Am
With the promise of a hummer and a pound
F C
And I don't know what to do for you
Em Am
I could draw you a picture of the world and a screw
F C
I could've loved you but your dreams are on fire
Em Am
And your prophet is a banker and a liar
Am C
And if their money don't fulfil you
Am C
There are medicines that will do
Em Am
Others thinking for you so you can relax
Am C
The poison kiss of easy living
Am C
Full of shit and unforgiving
Em Am
To the pope who rest its burden on their backs
F C
And I don't know what to do for you
Em Am
I could draw you a picture of the world and a screw
F C
I could've loved you but your dreams are on fire
Em Am
And your prophet is a banker and a liar
F C
And I don't know what to do for you
Em Am
I could draw you a picture of the world and a screw
F C
I could've loved you but your dreams are on fire
Em Am
And your prophet is a banker and a liar
