Hang On To Your Ego

Please feel free to correct any mistakes I made.  I haven't been playing
for too long, and this is my first attempt at a transcription.

G# C# C B A#
G# D# G# D#

       G#                 D#                         G#
I know so many people who think they can do it alone
     G#                           D#                 G#
They isolate their heads and stay in the safety zones
B                    F#      B
But what can ya tell them
            F#            F           C#
What can ya say that will make them defensive?

    D#              F    D#
So, hang on to your ego.
               F                    A#              D#
hang on, but I know that your gonna lose the fight
          G#                              D#              G#
they come home like they're peaceful, but inside their so uptight
     G#                         D#                          G#     B
they trip through their day and waste all their thoughts at night

B                 F#   B
but how can I say it
          F#           F          C#
how can I come on when I know I'm guilty
    D#              F    D#
So, hang on to your ego.
               F                    A#              D#
hang on, but I know that your gonna lose the fight
Chords before and during solo:
G# C# C B A#
G# D# G# G#
F# C# F# F#
Then repeat verse 2 and chorus
Note: I imagine that Frank Black plays this song with his guitar tuned
      down 1/2 step, but I hate re-tuning my guitar, so these chords
      are in standard tuning.  I play all the chords sorta like barre
      chords.
                i.E. G# 466xxx,
                     D# x688xx,
                     B  x244xx etc...
Also, the lyrics may be off a little.

Kind of a cool song, but he didn't include lyrics w/cassette.
He tunes down to Eb for the record, this version is fingered in
in E which is probably closer to what he fingers.
