Everybody knows the good guys lost
Em F#
Everybody knows the fight was fixed

The poor stay poor, the rich get rich

Everybody knows that the boat is leaking

Everybody got this broken feeling

Like their father or their dog just died

Everybody talking to their pockets

Everybody wants a box of chocolates
C F#
And a long-stem rose

Everybody knows

Everybody knows that you love me baby

Oh, give or take a night or two

But there were so many people you just had to meet

Without your clothes

Everybody knows

Everybody knows that it's me or you

When you've done a line or two
Em F#
Everybody knows the deal is rotten
A Bm
Old Black Joe's still picking cotton
C F#
For your ribbons and bows

And everybody knows
[Verse 5] *This verse is bit more ballad-y so things get held a bit longer*
Bm
And everybody knows that the Plague is coming
G
Everybody knows that it's moving fast
Bm
Everybody knows that the naked man and woman
G
Are just a shining artifact of the past
Em F#
Everybody knows the scene is dead
A Bm
But there's gonna be a meter on your bed
C F#
That will disclose
Bm
What everybody knows
[Verse 6]
Bm
And everybody knows that you're in trouble
G
Everybody knows what you've been through
Bm
From the bloody cross on top of Calvary
G
To the beach of Malibu
Em F#
Everybody knows it's coming apart
A Bm
Take one last look at this Sacred Heart
C F#
Before it blows
Bm
Everybody knows
