Cause by Sixto Rodriguez




                                 Cause 






Intro

E  C   F#  Am   E

E                   Asus2  A                          E       Asus2  A                          
Cause I lost my job          two weeks before Christmas
         E                        Asus2 A                                        E                  Asus2 A   
And I talked to Jesus at the sewer         and the Pope said it was none of his God-damned business 
          E                    Asus2 A                               E                  Asus2   A
While the rain drank champagne          my Estonian Archangel came and got me wasted 
              E                    Asus2 A                        E           Asus2   A
Cause the sweetest kiss I ever got          is the one I've never tasted

                E                A    G#m                  B
Oh but they'll take their bonus pay        to Molly McDonald,
E           A                            G#m                   B
Neon ladies,  beauty is that which obeys,    is bought or borrowed


Cause my heart's become a crooked hotel full of rumours
But it's I who pays the rent for these fingered-face out-of-tuners 
and I make 16 solid half hour friendships every evening
Cause your queen of hearts who is half a stone And likes to laugh alone 
is always threatening you with leaving 

Oh but they play those token games on Willy Thompson
And give a medal to replace the son of Mrs. Annie Johnson

Cause they told me everybody's got to pay their dues 
And I explained that I had overpaid them 
So overdued I went to the company store
and the clerk there said that they had just been invaded 
So I set sail in a teardrop and escaped beneath the doorsill
Cause the smell of her perfume echoes in my head still

Cause I see my people trying to drown the sun 
In weekends of whiskey sours
Cause how many times can you wake up in this comic book and plant flowers?
