G Am7 Fsus2  C5 4x

Am7                         G           D      Csus2
I should be knocking on the door of the pearly gates
Why keep a poor man alive in a job he hates
Am7                              G       Bm           Csus2
I've heard that good things will come to he who waits
Am7                     G            D     Csus2
I should be riding on a float in the hit parade
Instead of sitting on the curb behind the barricade
Am7                  G       Bm     Csus2
Another verse in the doormat serenade

          G         Am7 Fsus2 C5
Won't you put me on top
won't you put me on top, or change the odds
won't you put me on top
      G              Bm          Em            Csus2
or at least put some hope in the bottom of the box
G   Bm   Em Csus2             

Am7                   G           D       Csus2
Oh, at least put some hope in the box for me
'Cause it's only black and white and not a lot of each
Am7                     G               Bm           Csus2
There's a remote on the shelf, but it's out of reach
          G         Am7 Fsus2 C5
Won't you put me on top
won't you put me on top, or change the odds
won't you put me on top
      G              Bm          Em            Csus2
or at least put some hope in the bottom of the box

G Bm Em Csus2

Bm                   E7
Put some hope in the bottom of the box for me
Am    Am7/G   D  D/C D/B D/A
I need it 

[solo] (the solo is loosely the melody to The Beatles' "She Said". 
The words are just there for a guide, they are not sung))

(she said

who put all those things in your head

          G         Am7 Fsus2 C5
Won't you put me on top
won't you put me on top again, or change the odds
or in the least put some hope
        G            Bm          Em            Csus2
or at least put some hope in the bottom of the box
G Bm Em Csus2
       G             Bm          Em            Csus2
or at least put some hope in the bottom of the box
