1.Verse:

 GA
 funny you swear you got nowhere special to go
 AmDC
but I know you will, before too long    
 G
 always there, standing there
 A
staring at the hole in the robe
 AmDC
like it was a place somebody would go 

1.Chorus:
G D Am (Am/E)? G B Em
con-fusion is king, the talk of your town
 GAAm
 with the hollywood design, knowing everyone 
 GBEm
would you cover mine?     

2.Verse:
 GA
 you spoke softer than anybody i ever heard 
 AmDC
softer than the vel-vet in your hair   
 GA
 tying back black laughin' back (?), black as a bird 
 AmDC
i live in a cage, and i could take you there

2.Chorus:
G D Am (Am/E)? G B Em
con-fusion is king, the talk of your town
 GA
 streets, i'm living with the pain
 AmGBEm
this is what you see always looking dow   

3.Verse:
 GA
 hanging out, let her (?) can't tell how to behave
 AmDC
with her on the stage i hear your ser(?)
 GA
 animals painted in the dark on the walls of the cage
 AmDC
pictures i wish you just forget

3.Chorus:
G D Am (Am/E)? G B Em
con-fusion is king, the talk of your town
 GAAm
 I don't know if you care the meaning of the word
 GBEm
maybe just yourself         

4.Verse:
 GA
 little things trigger big problems you can wipe out a stain
 AmDC
maybe i destroy what makes you sad
 GA
 if you're rid of so many minds buried that you never relay      
 AmDC
until your body's numb and it's all too bad

4.Chorus:
G D Am (Am/E)? G B Em
con-fusion is king, the talk of the town

 GA
 i don't know how to speak it
 Am
i don't know how to help you
 GBEmEmEm
i'll just be around            
 GA
 i don't know how to speak
 Am
i don't know how to help
 GBEm
i'll just be aroun   

i think it is not exactly right...but it sounds near to the "La Zona Rosa, Austin 5-6-00"-recording
