Hollow Man

They picked another one off the vine
                F            C           G
Scooped out the seeds in the back of his mind
         Am            G         C               F
Well, he filled up his head with half-truths and lies
            C                      G
And put the finishing touch on the perfect disguise

         C            F          C             F
And they rolled out a carpet and threw a parade
   C           F          C            G
Convinced everyone he had something to say
     Am             G                C       F
They smiled as they watched from the two-way mirror
      C                             G
As he told all the people what they wanted to hear

    C            F         C       F
Hey___, have you heard the story?
    C              G
The same old song, same old dance
Am        G         C      F
Hey, he's bound for glory
         C             G      C    G  C
He ain't nothing but a hollow man

                 F       C           F
He basked in the glow of fortune and fame
     C               F            C            G
Even threw the first pitch at the World Series game
   Am         G             C          F
He always maintained he had nothing to hide
       C                     G
No one ever suspected he was empty inside

    C            F         C       F
Hey..., have you heard the story?
     C                      G
They set him up so high, he never had a chance
Am           G         C           F
Hey, you can see right through him
         C             G      C    G
He ain't nothing but a hollow man

Am  G    Am  G    Am  D7    F    G    C

              F       C         F
Then came the day his cover was blown
             C            F           C         G
Their little Frankenstein monster got out of control
      Am            G            C           F
So he looked to the ones who had saved him before
        C                                G
Only to find that they'd changed all the locks on the doors

          C             F          C              F
Then the  press circled round with blood in their eyes
         C         F            C       G
Each one wanting a piece of his rapid demise
         Am        G              C        F
And they cast him aside when from glory he fell
         C                       G
Now he's just another bum with a story to tell

  C       F         C     F
Hey, he's less than zero
    C                       G
The greater the height, the harder you land
         Am            G         C     F
Ain't it hard when you find your hero
      C             G      Am
Ain't nothing but a hollow man
D     F             G      F   C
Ain't nothing but a hollow man___
