Biography:
The Waterboys is a British celtic band formed in 1983 by Scottish musician Mike Scott. Their songs, largely written by Scott, often contain literary references and are frequently concerned with spirituality. Both the group and its members' solo careers have received much praise from both rock and folk music critics, but The Waterboys as a band has never received the commercial success that some of its members (such as Ian McNabb, leader of The Icicle Works; Trevor Hutchinson, a founding member of Lúnasa; etc) have had independently.

His head is... His philosophy... You’ll pine...

Get out before he crops your hair
NC Bm D E F#
You married the wrong guy, Rosalind... when are you gonna see
Bm D E F#
You married the wrong guy, Rosalind.. pick up your skirts and flee
Bm
His hands are full of drifting sand

Some of us are volunteers, some were pressed
A
But what are you doing in that cuckoo’s nest?
Bm
His eyes are full of illusion’s lies
F#
His conscience long since compromised
Bm F#
With all the grief that that implies
NC
Get out before your reason dies
