G    Bm        Em    Em7/G 
How sweet to be an idiot 
 
C       Em/B  Ebdim  
As harmless as a cloud 
 
Em                B 
Too small to hide the sun 
 
Am     Am7    Dsus4  D 
Almost poking fun  
 
G        Bm  Em 
At the warm but insecure  
 
Em7/G Am    Am7  Dsus4 D Asus4/D  D 
untidy  crowd  
 
 
G    Bm        Em   Em7/G 
How sweet to be an idiot 
 
C  Em/B         Eb dim 
And dip my brain in joy  
 
Em             B 
Children laughing at my back  
 
Am  Am7   Dsus4  D 
With no fear of attack  
 
G      Bm  Em    Em7/G  Am    
As much retaliation as a   toy  
 
               
Am7 Dsus4 D 
 
 
G    Bm        Em    D 
How sweet to be an idiot

D 
I tiptoe down the street 
 
                 
Smile at everyone I meet

But suddenly a scream

As much imagination as a  
 
 
caravan site!
