Intro: (x3) Verse N.C. How I hate the Queen of Pentacles Sitting on her golden throne In her domestic tyranny All roads lead back to her alone verse 2 N.C. The whole wide world is a great big drain And the vortex is her heart Her moods and wants and Wishes and whims All take precedence on this chart N.C. But what do I know My card’s the fool, the fool, the fool That merry rootless man, With air beneath my footstep And providence as my plan Providence as my plan verse 3 N.C. Oh it’s such expensive innocence Never knowing any cost She throws around her finery For us to fetch when it gets lost Solo x2 e|----------------------------|----------------------------| B|----------------------------|----------------------------| G|----------------------------|----------------------------| D|--------0--2--0-------------|--------0-------------------| A|--2--3-----------------3----|--2--3----------------------| E|----------------------------|----------------------------| v v e|----------------------------|----------------------------| B|--------------------1-------|--------1-------------------| G|--------------------2-------|--------2-------------------| D|--------0--2--------2-------|--------0-------------------| A|--2--3--------0-------------|--2-----------3--2--0-------| E|----------------------------|----------------------------| e|---------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------| G|---------------------------------------------| D|--2-----------0-----2-----2/5----------------| A|--------------------------------------3------| E|---------------------------------------------| e|----------------------------|----------------------------| B|--------------------1-------|--------1-------------------| G|-----------------2----(2)---|-----0----(0)---------------| D|--------------3-------------|--2-----------0-------------| A|--3-------------------------|-----------------3--2-------| E|----------------------------|----------------------------| e|----------------------------| B|----------------------------| G|----------------------------| D|----------------------------| A|--2--3--2--0----------------| E|--------------3-------------| N.C.
