Well they’d better save some space for me
        Em               F
In that growing cottage industry

From the string of happy accidents

I guess maybe I asked for it

The closing bell death tolls,

 hear the market crash

A crying trader swears

 he’ll get out of the game

Look out on the ever-widening 
                     G     C
money trail and where it goes
