I put # for the fast picking part, since it’s hard to tell exactly how many times
he picks the note.

Chords:
C - Dm – F - G
C Dm F
A devastating backstroke
F G C
All the way from France
C Dm F
With shiny, shiny cufflinks
F G C
A shirtsleeve to enhance
C Dm F
The pin-striped men of morning
F G C
Are coming for to dance
C Dm F
With pure Egyptian Cotton
F G C
The kids don't stand a chance
Solo
You criticize the practice
By murdering their plants
Ignoring all the history
Denying them romance
The pin-striped men of morning
Are coming for to dance
Forty-million dollars
The kids don't stand a chance
Solo
I didn't like the business,
But that was at first glance
Your pillow feels so soft now
But still you must advance
The pin-striped men of morning
The partners in the dance
The paper's shot to pieces
The kids don't stand a chance
Solo
