Fall of the world's own optimist

C           C/Bb              Am
There's no charity in you and 
        Am/G#
that surprises me
C                                 
I guess I thought you were a 
  Am           E
golden idol cause I called you 
majesty
Am       G            Am
On the balustrade you watched me 
hunt for
D                                 
Tips I was obliged to pick up from
   D7
 the passing trade

C             F                  
Hey, kids--look at this it's the 
Am           Am7           D7
fall of the world's own optimist
C                             F  
I could get back up if you insist
                      Am    Am7/G  
 but you'll have to ask politely
Bb E

               Am            
Cause the eggshells I've been 
          E                 
treading couldn't spare me a 
     C                 G
beheading
         F      Am     Dm        
And I'll know I had it coming 
    F        Am        G      G7
from a Caesar who was only slumming
C     Bb     F                   
Hey, kids--look at this it's the 
Am         D/F#           F    C
fall of the world's own optimist

C             C/Bb              
Well, I could have objections 
Am        Am/G#
which you could override
C                              
But what's the point--we're only 
             D/F#
flogging the horse
               E                 E7
When the horseman has up and died
Am       G                Am    
Once I testified and swore I'd 
            D
never leave a stone unturned
  D7
I bet you're really glad that I lied
