I'm not surprised it's come to this, Sooner or later there must be another's
kiss, Behind that kiss a promise of a life of bliss, Yeah, great I won't be
takin' the bait - I'd rather drown And I will not turn my whole life upside
down
Imagine everything you've done, Under a microscope on view for everyone, and
if the King of Circumspection's here He's come in vain I won't be sharing
the blame - I wear the crown and I will not turn my whole life upside down
Nothing's good enough for me To shake me from complacency, I make my mind up
and I'll never be The kind of man who'd make a choice, For if I hold my
tongue I'll never lose my voice, If each attempted act of sabotage destroys
all hope I won't be needing a rope - I'm gagged and bound and I will not
turn my whole life upside down
And if the genie were set free, and by the laws of things like that he's
indebted to me. I'd bury my three wishes deep down in the ground, So I will
not turn my whole life upside down.
Bend the B string whenever it is on the 11th Fret. You will know what
i mean when you play along with the song

Though I appreciate the aim, tell Andy Warhol's ghost that he can keep his
fame, i'd only use it to make everything the same again so don't applaud
till the end - I'm not around cause I will not turn my whole life upside down
Nothing's good enough for me, to shake me from complacency, I've made my
mind up I won't make a sound, and I will not turn my whole life upside down
A bit of a weird solo and really hard to put down on tab, but its there and is as near
enough perfect as I can get it. I'm 100% certain the chords are right and I just hope
that you can follow it ok. Any queeries, suggestions etc, e-mail me at any of the addresses below,
