Teddy Picker Acoustic(Chords)

	        A                         F# 
Despair to the point till they provoke 
      A                                 F# 
The punchline before they have told the joke 
      A                      F# 
The sheer desperation to be seen 
      A                    F#    
Staring at the television screen 
   A                               F# 
Despair to the point where they provoke 
                        A                                 F# 
You to tell the fucking punchline before you have told the joke 
A                         F# 
Sorry sunshine it doesn't exist 
    A                     F# 
It wasn't in the top 100 list 
               F                       E 
And it's the thousandth time and it's even bolder, 
        Am 
Don't be surprised when you get bent over, 
F           E                           D#  
He told ya, that you were gagging for it 
    A                                 F# 
She saw it and she grabbed it and it wasn't what it seemed 
    A                            F# 
The kids all dream of making it, whatever that means 
 A                       F# 
Another variation on a theme 
                A                      F# 
A tangle on the television and the magazine 
      A                            F# 
D'you reckon that they do it for a joke? 
      A                                 F# 
D'you reckon that they make 'em take an oath? 
    A                F# 
That says 'we are defenders 
    A               F#     A     F#         G# 
Of any poseur or professional pretender around' 
             F               E 
When did your list replace the twist and turn? 
Am 
Ah the fist, replaced the kissed-on concern 
F                        E D C B A 
And if you're bothered, I don't want your prayers 

Save it for the morning after 

Solo

He told ya, that you were gagging for it 
F                        
Lets have a game on the Teddy Picker 
E 
Not quick enough can I have it quicker? 
Am 
Already thick and you're getting thicker 
F 
Lets have a game on the Teddy Picker 
E 
Not quick enough can I have it quicker?

Already thick and you're getting thicker

Asuming that all things are equal, 
A               F#                A             E 
Who'd want to be men of the people 
                          F#       D# 
When there's people like you?
