Capo 5 fret
 
 
G                              C              G
There was a man who banged his head against a wall
G                           C                  G
He banged for 20 years, but the damn thing wouldnt fall
G
He left an honest life
C
He left a broken wife
G                      C                G
He left it all behind, just to see what he could find
 
 
G....... C-D
 
 
G                               C          G
Millions and millions chase the wild goose tonight
G                            C                  G
To conquer loneliness theyll chase it all their lives
G                              C                 G
And when they find it they can just lay down and die
              Am            D                C               G
It seems the game is mostly pointless in the presence of the prize.
 
 
G.......C-D
 
 
G                           C              G
There was a woman who had a man as cold as ice
G                                    C               G
He built four walls so strong and he kept her locked inside
G
She harbored loneliness
C
Her husband couldnt guess
G
That shed take off her dress
C
And kill herself without a mess.
 
 
 
G....... C-D
