Why not sneeze?

Verse 1.
Dm - A
As Tick follows Tock,
Paper beats the Rock.
Completely aware,
They gather and stare.
And laugh of the time,
You sang Auld Lang Syne.
With Whiskey on breath,
And beats on the chest.


Bridge
Am - C - F - B#m
Now the tables have turned,
And lesson's been learned.
He said he's in love.
With loaded guns and Turtle Doves.
And few In - between.


Verse 2
The writings on the wall
The wall's been written on.
Work hard so you miss,
What's hard to resist.
It could have been great,
It should have been great.
What got in the way?
We got in the way.


Bridge


Chorus
F - B#m
Come now,
You've already won this.
Try to be magnanimous in victory.
A lump on the 'old hello'.
Cuts and Mud cover your hands.
You're a lost objet trouvĂ©,
Gone to see Man about Dog in Con.


(Repeat Verse 1, Bridge, Chorus )


Outro
F - Dm - B#m - C
So it goes, you lost control.
Nice bike but what a horrid fall.
Why not Sneeze?
Rose Selavy.
So sweet, but damn you're well heavy.
From a town of Cotton Mouth.
Paint canal, Scowl at South.
Why not Sneeze?
Rose Selavy
Life's sweet, but damn its well heavy.
