          C#m
Everybody knows the dice are loaded
          A
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
          C#m
Everybody knows that the war is over
          A
Everybody knows that the good guys lost
          F#m                G#
Everybody knows the fight is fixed
              B                     C#m
The poor stay poor and the rich get rich

Everybody knows that the boat is sinking
          A
Everybody knows that the Captain lied
            C#m
Everybody’s got this broken feeling
           A
Like their momma or their dog just died
            F#m                G#
Everybody’s hands are in their pockets
          B              C#m
Everybody wants a box of chocolates
           D          G#
And a long stem rose

Everybody knows

[Verse 3]
          C#m
Everybody knows that it’s now or never
          A
Everybody knows that it’s me or you
          C#m
Everybody knows that you live forever
            A
When you’ve had a line or two
          F#m               G#
Everybody knows the deal is rotten
          B                   C#m
Old black Joe’s still pickin' cotton
         D           G#
For your ribbons and bows

[Verse 4]

Everybody knows you love me baby
          A
Everybody knows that you really do
          C#m
Everybody knows that you’ve been faithful
        A
Give or take a night or two
          F#m                  G#
Everybody knows you’ve been discrete
        B                 C#m
So many people you had to meet
    D        G#
Without your clothes
              C#m
And everybody knows
