Paper Tiger
  by Beck

Verse

E       (E7)              Bm 
Just like a paper tiger
Torn apart by idle hands
Through the helter skelter morning
Fix yourself while you still can
No more ashes to ashes
No more cinders from the sky
All the laws of creation
Tell a dead man how to die 

Chorus

E    C                   A
O deserts down below us
E    C                   A
And storms up above
E         C                         A
Like a stray dog gone defective
E          A         G       D
Like a paper tiger in the sun

Verse

E       (E7)              Bm
Looking through a broken diamond
To make the past what it should be
Through the ruins and the weather
Capsized boats in the sea

Chorus

E    C                   A
O deserts down below us
E    C                   A
And storms up above
E         C                         A
Like a stray dog gone defective
E          A         G       D
Like a paper tiger in the sun


E       (E7)              Bm 
We're just holding on to nothing
To see how long nothing lasts

Chorus

E    C                   A
O deserts down below us
E    C                   A
And storms up above
E         C                         A
Like a stray dog gone defective
E          A         G       D
Like a paper tiger in the sun

E       (E7)              Bm 
There's one road to the morning
There's one road to the truth
There's one road back to civilization
But there's no road back to you....
