    G           D                  D 
Had guards like watchdogs, dogs in a manger 
        G              D                  D 
I could feel the protection, possession and anger 
      G              D                  D 
And I drove out of there with no one behind me 
G         D             D 
  Feeling funny and free 
  
All you pretty pretenders, negligent vendors 
Aren't you precious inside 
I have no need of anger with intimate strangers 
And I got nothing to hide 
  
I laughed as I said it, this is my situation 
It's not pictures or privilege, it's just self-preservation 
I don't want you to feel any obligation 
It feels so funny to be free 
  
All you pretty pretenders, negligent vendors 
Aren't you precious inside 
I have no need of anger with intimate strangers 
And I got nothing to hide 
  
Am  Am   Am  Am   Em  Em   Em  Em   Am  Am   Am  Am

{Guitar solo; see tab at end.  (chords are rough approximations)} 
 
We act empty and innocent, but we are fueled by distortions 
                 (I                 remember         you) 
Of lives led in discontent, trading misfortunes 
   (When        we     were shiny  and  new; Now you) 
'Cause faith is one thing that is hard to deliver 
       (guard  your faith,         temper your speed) 
 It feels so funny to be free 
(It feels so funny to be free) 
 
All you pretty pretenders, negligent vendors 
Aren't you precious inside 
I have no need of anger with intimate strangers 
And I got nothing to hide

I got nothing to hi  -   i  - ide

Laa laa, la la la (etc.)

Laaaaa 
D          Dsus4      D          Dsus9 
All of us, all of us, all of us, all of us 
  
Pretty pretenders, negligent vendors 
Aren't we precious inside 
I have no need of anger with intimate strangers 
And I got nothing to hide 
I got nothing to hide 
 
I had guards like watchdogs, dogs in a manger 
                  (I       remem    -    ber     you) 
 
 
INSTRUMENTAL AT END OF FIRST CHORUS

{Emily actually plays a lot more notes than this; these are the ones 
 that stand out, and this is how _I_ play it.  If you want the complete, 
 correct version, buy the songbook.}

{Once again, this isn't exactly the way Emily plays it; this is how 
 I play it, and it sounds pretty good.  For the very difficult official 
 Emily version, see the songbook.}
