The Name Of The Game

[A]saw the railway master[Bm] and i looked hi[F#m]m in the eye          [C#m]
        [D]                           [A]                [G]
i said would you go much faste[D]r if you thought that you would die
he said not[A] me son i could no[Bm]t care, in fact i would[F#m] not try           [C#m]
[D]protest would not take m[A]e far, it's different m[G]e not being a star         [D]
[B]lock my feelings in a j[G]ar, until a[D]nother day        [A]

oh comfort me dear brother won't you tell me what you know
somewhere in this paper world is a place where i can go
oh long awaited mother, is it time to make a show?
and take your babies to your breast, hope we never pass the test
all our sins should be confessed before we carry on

[E]oh, don't ref[Bm]use me, if you choose[G] me, you'll follow my sha[D]me            [A]
[E]don', don't con[Bm]fuse me, fore i know it[G]'s the name of the[D] game            [A]

cuddled up my pillow, and i looked up at the sun
said, you can see quite clearly now, the things that we have done
rebuild you sacred widow, on the battles we have won
how did we get so very far? it's different me not being a star
lock my feelings in a jar until we go away
(REPEAT CHORUS TWICE)
