Crippled Inside
John Lennon
Intro: (Slide Guitar) /u> Verse 1: You can shine your shoes and wear a suit You can comb your hair and look a quite cute. You can hide your face behind a smile. One thing you can’t hide Is when you’re crippled inside. Verse 2: You can wear a mask and paint your face You can call yourself the human race. You can wear a collar and a tie. One thing you can’t hide Is when you’re crippled inside. Well now you know That your cat has nine lives babe. Nine lives to itself You only got one And a dog’s life ain’t fun. Mamma take a look outside. Verse 3: You can go to church and sing a hymn Judge me by the colour of my skin. You can live a lie until you die. One thing you can’t hide Is when you’re crippled inside. Instrumental: Take it Billy! (Honky-Tonk Piano Solo) /u (Repeat Chorus) (Repeat Verse 1) ’You can shine your shoes and wear...’ inadvertently omitted Outro: One thing you can’t hide Is when you’re crippled inside. (Slow 2/2 Tempo) One thing you can’t hide Is when you’re crippled inside. (End)
