x2 (acoustic only)
x4 (all play loud)
Sometimes the rain upon the sea
Can make the gray look green to me.
And when I'm into all that gray,
I'll make the morning last all day.
see I've been down to New South Wales
both my brothers've been in jail,
Ah, but my sister - she got free
Now she's across the great gray sea.
x 4 (loud)
Now I've been hard, too hard to find,
But there's no paranoia in my mind.
There've been no comrades dropping dimes,
It's just I'm working overtime.
And I know that in the end,
I'll come clean to all my friends.
'Cause we all know we all have sinned,
And we all know we're going to again.
And when I was late in checking in,
And I couldn't say where I'd been,
Well, I bet you knew,
'Cause you sometimes do,
(2 3 4) (2 3 4) x4
And here we go 'round again...
See, Molly always knows just what to bring,
When Reb's in town, she always rings.
You wanna know what Tommy has to say?
Is Terry feeling better these days?
You can ask - take a look,
We're all pretty open books.
What I stand for, I mostly stand behind,
And what I am, I mostly can't hide.
And when we were late in getting in,
We couldn't say where we'd been.
So maybe you knew,
Like you sometimes do -
I've got no need to pretend.
Oh .I..,
Only you know what you've done.
Oh .I..,
x4 SOLO x4
Only you know what you've done.
My father works from 6 to 8,
And he ain't given up his faith,
And so I haven't given up myself,
(2 3 4 1 2 3 4) x4 (no electric)
Though I sure could use a little help.
Now it don't take the writing of a song,
To tell you what I was doing in '01.
Buy what I fear that I might never see,
Is where you were back in '73.
And why Mal, he ain't around,
Or if Everardo was ever found.
Or why Frankie says that history's race is run,
When we all know it's just erased by those who've won.
And when I was late in weighing in,
And I couldn't say where I'd been,
And, you thought you knew,
Like you sometimes do,
But you got it wrong again...
But C.I.A., Only you know what you've done
Oh C.I.A., Only you know what you've done.
Oh C.I.A., Ha! Only you know what you've done.
Bm D D A REPEAT(D-->A)TO FADE
C.I.A Only you know what you've done. Only you know what you've done (call & respond)
