^Eb I supp ^Eb/D ose you're ^Cm entitled to know why I'm ^Ab making c ^Fm ontacts
^Ab With acquaintances ^Eb scattered all over the ^Fm land ^{Bbsus Bb
Eb} I'd promise ^Eb/D you ^Cm now and again that I'd ^Ab honor the c ^Fm ontract
^Ab If it hadn't c ^Eb rumbled away in my ^Fm han ^Bbsus d ^Bb
Ab Well we broke that ^Bb vow i ^Fm ndependently ^Bb now
^F But I don't know ^Cm why ^Ab you absol ^Ab/G utely ^Fm deny
You bowed ^Eb down ^{Eb/D Cm Bb} you bowed ^Ab down ^Bb
You bowed ^Eb dow ^Eb/D n ^{Cm Bb} you bowed ^Ab dow ^Bb n
^Eb When you ^Eb/D first looked ^Cm away I might say it was ^Ab really a ^Fm kindness
^Ab It must have ^Eb hurt to see how dreams ^Fm sour ^{Bbsus Bb
Eb} Now they ^Eb/D say that ^Cm justice and love are the ^Ab next thing to ^Fm blindnesss
^Ab Well you're getting ^Eb plenty of both of them ^Fm now ^{Bbsus Bb
Ab} And so you ^Bb parade ^Fm where appointments are m ^Bb ade
^F And never meant to be ^Cm kept ^Ab unless ^Ab/G you ^Fm accept
You bowed ^Eb down ^{Eb/D Cm Bb} you bowed ^Ab down ^Bb
You bowed ^Eb dow ^Eb/D n ^{Cm Bb} you bowed ^Ab dow ^Bb n
^Ab You'll value the ^Bb burnt amber of falling ^Ab leaves
And you'll long to ^Bb delay
^Ab You'll feel their ^Bb breath as they whisper
^Ab It won't hurt you to betray
If you ^Eb just ^Eb/D bow ^Cm down ^{Bb Ab} just bow ^Bb down
^Eb Just ^Eb/D bow ^Cm down ^{Bb Ab} just bow ^Bb down
^Eb And now ^Eb/D every ^Cm time that we meet on the ^Ab edge of ^Fm hysteria
^Ab You're helping them ^Eb sell off some new party ^Fm line ^{Bbsus Bb
Eb} I remembe ^Eb/D r a t ^Cm ime when you would have s ^Ab eemed so ^Fm superior
^Ab Now you say will you ^Eb please meet this good friend of ^Fm min ^Bbsus e ^Bb
Ab So your in ^Bb demand as l ^Fm ong as you'll kiss their ^Bb hand
^F But all the ^Cm applause ^Ab is for their ^Ab/G name not ^Fm yours
You bowed ^Eb down ^{Eb/D Cm Bb} you bowed ^Ab down ^Bb
You bowed ^Eb dow ^Eb/D n ^{Cm Bb} you bowed ^Ab dow ^Bb n
