Lyrics

[Intro]
| C Dm F - | - G C - | C Dm F - | -

[Verse 1]
G
C  C       Dm      F                 G           C
 A devastating backstroke All the way from France
     C
With shiny,
   Dm     F                   G         C
shiny cufflinks A shirtsleeve to enhance
    C          Dm        F
The pinstriped men of morning
              G        C
Are coming for to dance
     C        Dm      F                  G             C
With pure Egyptian Cotton The kids don't stand a chance

[Bridge]
| C Dm F - | - G C - | C Dm F - | -

[Verse 2]
G
C    C        Dm        F                G            C
 You criticize  the practice By murdering their plants
  C         Dm      F                 G       C
Ignoring all  the history Denying them romance
    C          Dm        F
The pinstriped men of morning
                  G        C
Are coming forward to dance
C       Dm      F                   G             C
Fortymillion dollars The kids don't stand a chance

[Bridge]
| C Dm F - | - G C - | C Dm F - | - G C - |

[Strings Solo]
| C Dm F - | - G C - | C Dm F - | -

[Verse 3]
G
C  C          Dm        F                   G            C
 I didn't like  the business But that was at first glance
     C           Dm       F
Your pillow feels  so soft now
              G           C
But still you must advance
    C          Dm        F
The pinstriped men of morning
               G         C
The partners in the dance
    C           Dm      F                  G             C
The paper's shot  to pieces The kids don't stand a chance
