hey all , this is my second posting . i wasn’t positive about the last part of the
song , but i feel the rest of it is good . this is a fairly easy song . i used A
slightly different chord voicing in the G where there is an extra 5th instead of A
3rd ( you play the G on the 1st string with your pinky finger and A D on the 2nd
string with your ring finger ) .
intro : G – Cadd9 – G – Cadd9
G Cadd9
when the gavel comes down crooked
G Cadd9
and the verdict feels unfair
G Cadd9
and the judges robes are stained
G Cadd9
and the jury don’t seem to care

our love is a puzzle that can’t be solved
G Cadd9
our love is a puzzle that can’t be solved
Em7 Dsus4
and the urn that holds the ashes
Cadd9 A7sus4
has been shattered by the fall
Em7 Dsus4
i’m stuck with the circus king
Cadd9
getting sick of it all
G Cadd9
up against the wall
G Cadd9
up against the wall
G Cadd9
when you’re down on the ocean floor
G Cadd9
and the sand gets in your shell
G
everyone’s been talking
Cadd9
about the pearl you’ll have someday
G Cadd9
but right now it only hurts like hell
Em7 A7sus4
hey , how you gonna pick up them pieces?
