B                  F#
I woke up in Montecito
        B                F# B
I was thinkin' about my life
         E                   B
And the questions made more questions
        F#
Starin' out into the night
           B              F#      B
Yes, I've worn the golden g-string
                      F#  B
Put my hand into hellfire
   E             B                F#
I did it all to make you love me and to feel alive

Chorus:
E                                           B
Oh, that's just the world that we're livin' in
    E                                                   B  F#
The old boys hold all the cards and they ain't playin' gin
    E                                B                  G#m
You dare to call me crazy, have you looked around this place?
         C#7
I should walk away
             F#
Oh, I should walk away
                   B
But I think I'll stay

There are layers to this body
Primal sex and primal shame
They told me I should cover it
So I went the other way
I was tryin' to own my power
Still I'm tryin' to work it out
And at least it gives the paper somethin' they can write about

Chorus:
And oh, that's just the world that we're livin' in
The old boys hold all the cards and they ain't playin' gin
And you dare to call me crazy, have you looked around this place?
I should walk away
Oh, I should walk away
But I think I'll stay

        B                F#
So the mad man's in the big chair
         B               F#
And his heart's an iron vault
    E                      B                 F#
He says "If you can't make ends meet, honey, it must be your fault"
        B            F#
We all focus on the winners
          B                F#
And get blinded by their shine
       E              B                F#
Maybe caring for each other's just too 1969

Chorus:
But oh, that's just the world that we're livin' in
The old boys hold all the cards and they ain't playin' gin
And you dare to call me crazy, have you looked around this place?
I should walk away
Oh, I should walk away
But I think I'll stay

                   E     B F#
And I think I'll stay, yeah
            B
I have too much to lose
                  E  B F#
So I think I'll stay
               B
I can't walk away
