First Verse

  A      C#m     A           C#m
  Why do I sense benevolence,

  A         C#m        A             C#m
  You stand tall at my great expense,

  G                                         F#
  Thick words of gratitude, what a price to pay,

  G                                       F#
  Stuck in my throat, I sell every word I say.

Chorus (w/ fig 1)

  N.C.                  A
  But I don't want your charity,

C#m           A
  Twisting me round.

C#m                 A
  I don't want your charity,

Csus2
  Keeping me down.

Second Verse

  A        C#m        A           C#m
  Why does your world keep burying,

  A            C#m         A             C#m
  Gorging much deeper than it's ever been,

  G                                F#
  Rubbing still harder, salt on my heart,

  G                                       F#
  Licking my burns while I grovel in your dirt.

Bridge

  F#
  You pity me with your tasteless gestures,

                G
  Gratitude for kind,

      F#
  But your bludgeoned, intentioned objectives

                    G                         F#
  Are screwing with my mind, screwing with my mind.
