Elliott was a sick guitarist and this is just what I've figured out (what the fuck
is happening to my typing?)

Chorus
Simple, just C, Am, F, G
Now the lyrics... (mighty fine if I do say so myself... which I do)
He's pleased to meet you underneath the horse
In the cathedral with the glass stained black
Singing sweet high notes that echo back
To destroy their master
May be a long time til you get the call-up
But it's sure as fate and hard as your luck
No one'll know where you are
It's just a brief smile crossing your face
running speed trials still standing in place
When the socket's not a shock enough
you little child what makes you think you're tough?
When all the people you think you're above
They all know what's the matter
You're such a pinball yeah you know it's true
There's always something you come back running to
To follow the path of no resistance
It's just a brief smile crossing your face
Running speed trials standing in place
It's just a brief smile crossing your face
Running speed trials all over the place
