 intro - C
 
          Dm    G            C     
 A funny pilgrim on a crazy crusade
          Dm    G                     C  
 a saucy chaucer, a sorry chapter mislaid
 G                  Am          F                                C  
 whittled with an exacto-knife plumb right thru my load-bearing wall
      F                    C             
 im horrified now i could do such a thing
         Dm                G   
 but i thought i saw the singer
                  F                    C   
 ive heard those chimes so many other times
               Dm              C   
 but if i gave in it had to've been
               F                     C           
 i whupped it out and destroyed my selfish cocoon
              Dm                C 
 since i gave in it had to've been
            Dm       G                C  
 'n' i gave in , i hope it had to've been
 G          Am          F        C     
 im not an optomist... im not a realist
  F            C                 Dm       G      
 i might be a sub-realist but i cant substantiate
         Dm         Em        F                    
 it was bigger than me and i felt like a sick child
               G                 C  
 dragged by a donkey thru the myrtle
