Intro:
G G C C x2

GC
It was an upset in two minutes flat
GC
We were back on the freeway, foot to the mat
Em EmA7 A7
I can't understand it; we had it down pat
CD
It's very upsetting, could we leave it at that?
GC
We all had positions; we each had a role
GC
We'd over-rehearsed it; we had full control
Em EmA7 A7
They can't teach you acting, it's there in your soul
CD
It's the same with a bank job, and each thing we stole

Em Em F#/D F#/D G G
So I don't need attitude
Em Em F#/D F#/D G G
Cause you knew just what to do
C C
We all did our best now
B/C B/C
We all need to rest now
A7 A7
Leave me alone
D D
Wait by the phone

GC
I was the driver; you ran the show
GC
You had the last word, the go or no go
Em EmA7 A7
I knew every laneway in Ontario
CD
But it's not what you're sure of, it's what you don't know
GC
It should have been filled with the usual ones
G G C C
Throwing their cash into mutual funds
Em Em A7 A7
We all had our ski masks and sawed-off shotguns
C C D D
But how do you plan for a bank full of nuns?

G G C C
Well, I guess we panicked - we all have taboos
G G C C
And they were like zebras; they had us confused
Em Em A7 A7
We should be in condos with oceanfront views
C C D D
Instead we're most-wanted on the six o'clock news

Em Em F#/D F#/D G G
So I don't need attitude
Em Em F#/D F#/D G G
Cause you knew just what to do
C C
We all did our best now
B/C B/C
We all need to rest now
A7 A7
Leave me alone
D D
And wait by the phone

Break:
Em Em F#/D F#/D G G C C F#/D F#/D
C C B/C B/C C C D D x2


GC
Inside the police car you tried to explain
GC
your crisis of conscience; the voice in your brain
Em Em A7 A7
And now that the whole thing has gone down the drain
CD
I think we all know who should shoulder the blame
GC
Cause you made a choice there, almost sublime
GC
I'm all for compassion, just not on my dime
Em EmA7 A7
You looked like an amateur, and that's the real crime
C C D D
So I'll take a walk now, and you do the time

Em Em F#/D F#/D G G
And I don't need attitude
Em Em F# F# G G
Cause you knew just what to do
C C
We all did our best now
B/C B/C
We all need to rest now
A7 A7
Leave me alone
D D
There's no need to phone


G G D D
We all did our best now
G G D D
We all need to rest now
G G D D
Leave me alone
G G D D
We all did our best now
G G D D
We all need to rest now
G G D D
Leave me alone
G G D D
Leave me alone
