Have you ever seen a scarecrow filled with nothing but dust and wheat
If you've ever seen that scarecrow then you've seen me
Have you ever seen a one-armed man punching at nothing but the breeze
If you've ever seen a one-armed man then you've seen me

Then you've seen me, I come and stand at every door
Then you've seen me, I always leave with less than I had before
Then you've seen me, bet I can make you smile when the blood, it hits the floor
Tell me, fan, can you ask for anything more

These things that have comforted me, I drive away

This place that is my home I cannot stay
                                        Eb     Bb    Ab
My only faith's in the broken bones and bruises I display
