G Oh Mother Goose, she's on the skids Am Sure ain't happy, neither are the kids Bm C She needs someone that she can scream at G D And I'm such a heel for making her feel so bad [Verse 3] C F I guess I'll call it sickness gone Am Em D It's hard to say the meaning to this song C F An ambulance can only go so fast Am Em D It's easy to get buried in the past C F When you try to make a good thing last Am Em D [Harmonica Break] G Am G Am G Am G Am [Verse 4] G I saw today, in the entertainment section Am There's room at the top for private detection Bm C To Mom and Dad this just doesn't matter G D But it's either that or pay off the kidnapper C F So all you critics sit alone Am Em D You're no better than me for what you've shown C F With your stomach pump and your hook and ladder dreams Am Em D We could get together for some scenes [Harmonica Break] G Am G Am G Am G Am [Verse 5] G Well I'm up in T.O. keepin' jive alive Am and out on the corner it's half past five Bm C But the subways are empty and so are the cafes G D Except for the Farmer's Market and I can still hear him sayin' C F "You're all just pissin' in the wind Am Em D You don't know it but you are" C F And there ain't nothing like a friend Am Em D Who can tell you you're just pissin' in the wind [Harmonica Break] G Am G Am G Am [Verse 6] G I never knew a man could tell so many lies Am he had a different story for every set of eyes Bm C How can he remember who he's talking to?
