F# F#/F
Relax, trembling peacock...
F#/D# F#/C#
No, I wasn't born to rock...
B F#
Oh, I was just plain born...
B F#
And then I kind of grew and then, well...
G#m C#
Vancouver made me, I guess it's true...
F# F#/F
Sired to the House of Lords
F#/D# F#/C#
(these days they call them 'Co-Op Boards'),
B F#
and now it's in my royal blood
B F#
to vote and vote and vote and vote
B F#
on things that never change...
G#m C#
Gods give and gods give our gifts away...

Settle down, trembling peacock...
F#/D# F#/C#
No, I wasn't sent to rock you...
B F#
Oh, I just kind of came...
B F#
And then I withdrew and then, well...
G#m C#
I guess the rest of you already knew...
F# F#/F
Sired to the House of Lords
F#/D# F#/C#
on the day they declared it bankrupt and
B F# B F#
now conquered lands pay tribute to the shifts of your skirt,
B F#
children at play get hurt,
G#m
and wars are won from a foxhole...
Interlude with solo (again)
And! intermittent babababababa's
F# F#/F F#/D# F#/C#
The inner world of a dove is complex, I'm telling you...
B F#
Lovers of the air, beware...
F# F#/F
But for us it's real simple...
F#/D# F#/C# B F#
Look - shot through with arrows,
B F#
a chest full of sparrows,
B F#
gonna show you the way to my heart...
