[Verse 1]
Bm A G
Alone, alone,
Bm A G
with too much generosity
Bm A G
A theatre mask
Bm A G
of hostility attracts
[Bridge]
F# G A Bm
Assaults occur, unfrequently
A G
And those who come, to conquer
G
Need strength
F# G
The damage accumulates
[Verse 2]
A Bm A G
Still moving him to tears
Bm A G
Retained a sense of humour
Bm A G
Retained a sense of humour
The last line repeats a few times then
switches to Colin singing “Ooos.”

During the Bridge I think the bass notes of the Main Riff are
changed to reflect the chord progression during the Bridge.
