C                          
Drive across the country, tell your story walking, 
Em                            F 
No one's keeping you captive, in the town that let you down, so sorry. 
C  
Blame it on the television, blame it on the company, 
Em                                     F 
Don't blame it on the fundamental fact, that no one owes you something. 

C                                Em 
I've come about my share, I only want what's fair, 
F 
Anyone who knows me, knows that I'm not greedy, 
C 
Like everybody else, I wanna pay my dues, 
Em                            F 
I only want someone to tell me who to make the check out to. 
  
F                                                                    F   
Maybe we could run away and start a little repertory movie house or something. 
F                                                                    F 
She said, "sorry but I think you might be just projecting but here's the dough."

C                                           
A community of dabblers, who are vain and fond of biting backs, 
Em                  F 
We hate it when our friends become successful, 
C 
And a different school, whose energies are spent evading income tax, 
Em                  F 
   And silicone enhancements by the breastful. 

F                                                                    F   
Maybe we could run away and start a little repertory movie house or something."

She said, "sorry but I think you might be just projecting on to me.  
F 
Why don't you try LA?"

C  
Well when you like something, it's an opinion  
Em                         F 
But when I like something, it's a manifesto, 
C  
Pomposity is when you always think you're right  
Em                    F 
Arrogance is when you know. 

F                                                                    F   
Maybe we could start a little independent repertory movie house or something. 
F                                                                    F   
She said, "Sorry but I think you might be just protecting your investment  
Or else assigning blame."
