[ Предположительная тональность: Dm ] Genius - Warren Zevon Chorded by Egg Flipper Standard Tuning V1: Dm C I've got a bitter pot of je ne sais quoi Dm C Guess what? I'm stirring it with a monkey's paw Bb A Since I saw you coming out of my barber's shop Dm Am In that skimpy little halter top V2: Dm C Did you light the candles? Did you put on "Kind of Blue"? Dm C Did you use that Ivy League voodoo on him, too? Bb A He thinks he'll be alright but he doesn't know for sure Dm Am Like every other unindicted co-conspirator Chorus F C Mata Hari had a house in France Dm C Where she worked on all her secret plans Bb A Men were falling for her sight unseen Dm Am She was a genius V3: Dm C There's a a face in every window of the Songwriters' Neighborhood Dm C Everybody's your best friend when you're doing well, I mean good Bb Am The poet who lived next door when you were young and poor Dm Am Grew up to be a backstabbing entrepreneur Chorus F C Albert Einstein was a ladies' man Dm C While he was working on his universal plan Bb A He was making out like Charlie Sheen Dm Am He was a genius V4: Dm C When you dropped me and you staked your claim Dm C On a V.I.P. who could make your name Bb A You latched on to him and I became Dm Am A minor incon-venience V5: Dm C Your protege don't care about art Dm C I'm the one who always told you you were smart Bb A You broke my heart into smithereens Dm Am And that took genius V6: Dm C You and the barber make a handsome pair Dm C Guess what? I never liked the way he cut your hair Bb A I didn't like the way he turned your head Dm Am But there's nothing I can do or say I haven't done or said Chorus F C Everybody needs a place to stand Dm C And a method for their schemes and scams Bb A If I could only get my record clean Dm I'd be a genius
