Relax, trembling peacock...
A/F# A/E
No, I wasn't born to rock...

Vancouver made me, I guess it's true...
A A/G#
Sired to the House of Lords
A/F# A/E
(these days they call them 'Co-Op Boards'),
D A
and now it's in my royal blood
D A
to vote and vote and vote and vote
D A
on things that never change...
Bm E
Gods give and gods give our gifts away...

Settle down, trembling peacock...
A/F# A/E
No, I wasn't sent to rock you...
D A
Oh, I just kind of came...
D A
And then I withdrew and then, well...

I guess the rest of you already knew...
A A/G#
Sired to the House of Lords
A/F# A/E
on the day they declared it bankrupt and

now conquered lands pay tribute to the shifts of your skirt,

children at play get hurt,

The inner world of a dove is complex, I'm telling you...
D A
Lovers of the air, beware...

But for us it's real simple...

gonna show you the way to my heart...
