Intro:

-----4---4-----------6---6----------5-4-2----5-4-2\0---4-4-0-

1.Verse:

funny you swear you got nowhere special to go

but I know you will, before too long

always there, standing there

staring at the hole in the robe

like it was a place somebody would go

1.Chorus:

G D Am (Am/E)? G B Em

con-fusion is king, the talk of your town

with the hollywood design, knowing everyone

would you cover mine?

2.Verse:

you spoke softer than anybody i ever heard

softer than the vel-vet in your hair

tying back black laughin' back (?), black as a bird

i live in a cage, and i could take you there

2.Chorus:

G D Am (Am/E)? G B Em

con-fusion is king, the talk of your town

streets, i'm living with the pain

this is what you see always looking down

3.Verse:

hanging out, let her (?) can't tell how to behave

with her on the stage i hear your serm (?)

animals painted in the dark on the walls of the cage

pictures i wish you just forget

3.Chorus:

G D Am (Am/E)? G B Em

con-fusion is king, the talk of your town

I don't know if you care the meaning of the word

maybe just yourself

4.Verse:

little things trigger big problems you can wipe out a stain

maybe i destroy what makes you sad

if you're rid of so many minds buried that you never relay

until your body's numb and it's all too bad

4.Chorus:

G D Am (Am/E)? G B Em

con-fusion is king, the talk of the town

i don't know how to speak it

i don't know how to help you

i'll just be around

i don't know how to speak

i don't know how to help

i'll just be around

i think it is not exactly right...but it sounds near to the "La Zona Rosa, Austin 5-6-00"-recording
