Song: Everybody Knows
By:   Sharon Robinson

{ capo fret 1 }

[intro:]   |Em |  |C  |   |Em |   |C  |   
 
[Verse 1]
          |Em                        
Everybody knows that the dices are loaded
          C 
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
          Em                  
Everybody knows the war is over
          C                       
Everybody knows that the good guys lost
          Am                   Bm
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
              D                   Em
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
             |F    |    |B   |   
That's how it goes
 
[Verse 2]
          |Em                     
Everybody knows that the boat is leaking
          C                     
Everybody knows that the captain lied
          Em                
Everybody got this broken feeling
           C
Like their father or their dog just died
             Am                Bm
Everybody's talking to their pockets
            D                Em
Everybody wants a box of chocolates
                |F   |   |B   |   
And a long-stem rose
 
[Verse 3]
          |Em                                
Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
          C

          Em                                
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
          C

          Em                            
Everybody knows that you love me baby
          C
everybody knows that you really do
          Em                                                     
Everybody knows that you've been faithful 
                C
Give or take a night or two
            Am                Bm
Everybody knows you've been discreet
                   D                           Em
But there were so many people you just had to meet
             |F      B |             |Em    |  
Without your clothes,  and everybody knows
 
[chorus:]
          |G    |           |D      |   
Everybody knows,  everybody knows
            |Em   |C         |G     |
Thats how it goes, everybody knows
              |G    |           |D   |  
And everybody knows,  everybody knows
              |Em   |C       |G      |  
That's how it goes, everybody knows
 
[Verse 4]
              |Em                        
And everybody knows that it's now or never
          C
Everybody knows that it's me or you
              Em                     
And everybody knows that you live forever
            C
When you've done a line or two
            Am               Bm
Everybody knows the deal is rotten
           D                   Em
Old Black Joe's still picking cotton
                     |F   |   |B   |   
For your ribbons and bows
 
[Verse 5]
             |Em                         
And everybody knows that the Plague is coming
          C
Everybody knows that it's moving fast
          Em                      
Everybody knows that the naked man and woman
            C
Are just a shining artifact of the past
            Am                Bm
Everybody knows the scene is dead
             D                       Em
But there's gonna be a meter on your bed
          |F       B|                 |Em     |
That will disclose,    What everybody knows
 
[chorus:]
          |G    |           |D      |   
Everybody knows,  everybody knows
            |Em   |C         |G     |
Thats how it goes, everybody knows
              |G    |           |D   |  
And everybody knows,  everybody knows
              |Em   |C       |G      |   
That's how it goes, everybody knows
 
[Verse 6]
              |Em                           
And everybody knows that you're in trouble
          C
Everybody knows what you've been through
         Em                      
From the bloody cross on top of calvary 
       C
to the beach of Malibu
            Am               Bm
Everybody knows it's coming apart
               D                  Em
Take one last look at this Sacred Heart
          |F     |B               |Em     |
Before it blows,    and everybody knows
          |Am               |Bm
Everybody knows it's coming apart
              |D                 |Em
Take one last look at this Sacred Heart
         |F      |       |B    |
Before it blows           ohh___
 
[coda:]
          |Em                      |                   
Everybody knows that the dices are loaded
          |C                       |
          Em                       |             
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
          |C                       |
          |Em                      |             
Everybody knows the war is over
          |C                       |
          |Em                      |                
Everybody knows that the good guys lost
          |C                       |
          |Em                      |
Everybody knows ....
