None of them
This is how he played it on The Colbert Report, I think, minus the live innuendos
he adds himself. He does a simple little fill before the B7 and it sounds like:
A|-0-1-2-|
G C
Oh, well, I feel so loose tonight I might fall to pieces
D G D
So be prepared to sweep me out the door
G C
And I might be horizontal by the time the music ceases
D G
So I think I'll get acquainted with the floor
B7 C
Oh, I was trying to get away from the things that I always do
A7 D
Hello, floorboards once again--how are you?
G C
Lip Service--well, that's all you'll ever get from me
D G D
Well, how could you believe I'll take you seriously?
G C
With your cheap rewards, your blackmail, and your comical rage
D G
Just remember you'll only be the boss so long as you pay my wage
G C
All the sign posts on this road that point one way
D G D
Don't act like you're above me, just look at your shoes
G C
I'll turn the light out now 'cause there's nothing more to say
D G
And it's all been lost before so there's nothing to lose
B7 C
Oh, but you could say that you love me very painlessly
A7 D
I would've done the same for you, but you said to me:
G C
Lip Service--well, that's all you'll ever get from me
D G D
Well, how could you believe I'll take you seriously?
G C
With your cheap rewards, your blackmail, and your comical rage
D G
Just remember you'll only be the boss so long as you pay my wage
D G
Oh just remember you'll only be the boss so long as you pay my wage
