INTRO
Riff 1

Riff 3

VERSE
Riff 1
There's a spider crawling
Riff 1
On the bathroom mirror
Riff 2 			 Riff 4
Right on top of my right eye
Riff 3
And I can't stop staring back
Riff 3
How did I get this way
Riff 3			    G   C  F  C
Take a big look at a living lie

CHORUS
G	C		 F	C
Rags to Rags and rust to rust
How d'you stand when you get crushed
So rags to riches was a bust
Riff1
Riff1

VERSE
Riff1
Sometimes I dream about
Riff1
What its like back home
Riff1				  Riff 4
The railroad tracks and the pussy willow

Riff 3
But I had to leave it
Riff 3
Now I go back
Riff 3				 G 	 C  F  C
Living(?) my tired head hits the pillow

CHORUS
G-C-F-C
Rags to rags and rust to rust
How do you stand when you get crushed
			Bflat   F
So rags to riches was a bust

Bflat        F
Busted once again
But I'll show them one day
That I can buy myself a world (???)
