G                  C
 We're a fine institution
G                        C
 We're using a test to decide
Em                        A
 Like some kind of sick solution
           Em                  A
Who should live and who should die


[Interlude]
Em (x8)


[Verse 2]
         Em               Am
If I let go of your hand,
B7          Em     Am B7
It would be murder
Em                   Am
 Standing backwards blindfolded
       B7         Em     Am B7
At the top of the stair
Em                       Am
 And you may wonder if I
B7      Em                Am     B7
I had assured her, it's a bird's world
Em               Am
 Making figure eights
     B7               Em  Am B7
All around the square
    Em               Am B7
Let go of your hand
 Em            A
Stray from the laws of the land


[Chorus]
Em                              Am
 Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
            B7             Em  Am B7
Where's the sense of shame?
Em                              Am
 Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
            B7             Em  Am B7
Where's the sense of shame?
Em                     Am       B7
 Desert oceans keep on widening
Em                            A
 It's been this way since the Pleistocene
Em                              Am
 Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
            B7             Em  Am B7
Where's the sense of shame?


[Violin solo]
Em (x4)


[Chorus]
Em                              Am
 Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
            B7             Em  Am B7
Where's the sense of shame?
Em                              Am
 Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
            B7             Em  Am B7
Where's the sense of shame?
Em                     Am       B7
 Desert oceans keep on widening
Em                            A
 It's been this way since the Pleistocene

[Bridge]
G        Bb
 Capital crimes
C            Eb                   G
 Nickels and dimes all across the floor
   Bb     C      Eb
Uh uh, oh oh, oh oh
G         Bb        C
 No vital signs, oh oh
               Eb
You scored too high
                 G
Now you walk the floor
      Bb           C           Eb Eb
We'll meet on that fatal shore

[Outro]
Em                              Am
 Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
            B7             Em  Am B7
Where's the sense of shame?
Em                              Am
 Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
            B7             Em  Am B7
Where's the sense of shame?
Em                              Am
 Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
            B7             Em  Am B7
Where's the sense of shame?
Em                              Am
 Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
            B7             Em  Am B7  Em
Where's the sense of shame?
