VERSE 1

A
Sulkin'
                               E
walkin' 'round the city after dark
                       A
need protection from street thugs

who clip the tires
                  E
and rip the doors off rugs

and cowards



CHORUS

A
and all this life we've glorified

robbin' from the blind
        E
it's not easy, you see
A
don't think I don't know sympathy

my victims in my shadow
        E
starin' back at me



VERSE2

A
not me, I'm knockin

tip toe outside a stranger's door
E
casually let myself in
A
fill pockets with
                        E
trinkets, purses, china antique armoirs



CHORUS

A
and all this life we've glorified

robbin' from the blind
        E
it's not easy, you see
A
don't think I don't know sympathy

my victims in my shadow
        E
starin' back at me


                   A
as robbers in my thoughts

they tell me what to think
                     E
they're hiding in my clothes
                                 A
crawling in the kitchen sink
