When the bat of an eye is too slow to beat the coffin

          G             D        A7sus4 (2)

They won't tell it on the TV

         G             D         A7sus4 (2)

They can't say it on the radio

                    G                   D          A7sus4 (2)

they pay to move it off the shelf and into our minds

            G                  D                  A7sus4                  D (2)

Till you can't tell the truth when it's right in front of your eyes
