I once read this thing
Verse 1
and now I regret it
It did not meet requirements,
so I had to forget it
No longer mine, I can't even express it
Dm
They own the master and
Dm
F
If it was made,
then you wouldn't hear it
Dm
They'd have to dissect it, cut it,
F
Dm
and clear it I can't even touch it, or clutch it, and
They own the rights, and still haven't sold
it
Dm
F
All I've left to give up is a ghost
Dm
F
Ain't nobody to get me back
Dm
F
All I've left to give up is ghosts
Dm
F
Ain't nobody getting that
Something was wrong from
the very word go
They obviously knew things
Dm
F
that I didn't know
They'd look for sedition and
sin and subversion
They'd doctor some lyrics
and scrap the dumb version
I once wrote this thing that
was poignant and true
They'd examined its content
and read it right through
Perhaps at some stage they
would bear it in mind
But our public's not ready
Dm
F
for ideas of this kind
All I've left to give up is the ghost
Dm
F
Ain't nobody getting that
All I've left to give for business
Dm

Dm
F
Their words were direct and
cloaked in politeness
They said I should sing more
and actually write less
With all things considered
Dm
F
their decision was final
It was in all our interest that
Dm
F
it never saw the final
Dm
F
They wanted simplicity,
not something commensal
Dm
F
But I see their po sition,
and that of the censor
They plot out this course that
perhaps I take part in
Dm
Ignoring the stuff that I put all my heart

F
Dm
I felt it was useless to
Dm
F
And I knew that I'd never see 18 again
It was based on good sense
Dm
that their judgment fell
Dm
F
OD'd and then it would sell
Dm
F
My vision was powerful, brutal and stark
But somehow my bullet had
just missed its mark
As I mentally ripped up my
cheque for the floors
They made certain concessions and altered
my thoughts
Dm
It's hard to live with it,
but can't live
F
without it I still might have cracked it,
but I very
Dm
much doubt it I had so much
to offer and so much to say
But I pushed the wrong
button and got in their way
