Intro: Dm A Dm Dm  

Everybody [Dm] knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody [Bb] rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody [Dm] knows the war is over
Everybody [Bb] knows the good guys lost
Everybody [Gm] knows that the fight was [A] fixed
The poor stay [C] poor, the rich get [Dm] rich
That's how it [Eb] goes [A]
Everybody [Dm] knows

Everybody [Dm] knows that the boat is leaking
Everybody [Bb] knows that the captain lied
Everybody  [Dm] got this broken feeling
Like their [Bb] father or their dog just died

Everybody [Gm]  talking to their [A] pockets
Everybody [C] wants a box of [Dm] chocolates
And a long stem [Eb] rose [A]
Everybody [Dm]  knows

Everybody [Dm] knows that you love me baby
Everybody [Bb] knows that you really do
Everybody [Dm] knows that you've been faithful
Ah give or [Bb] take a night or two
Everybody [Gm] knows you've been [A] discreet
But there were so many [C] people you just had to [Dm] meet
Without your [Eb] clothes [A]
And everybody [Dm] knows

Everybody [F] knows, everybody [C] knows
That's how it [Dm] goes [C]
[Bb] Everybody [F] knows

Everybody [F] knows, everybody [C] knows
That's how it [Dm] goes [C]
[Bb] Everybody [F] knows [Dm]

And everybody [Dm] knows that it's now or never
Everybody [Bb] knows that it's me or you
And everybody [Dm] knows that you live forever
Ah when you've [Bb] done a line or two
Everybody [Gm] knows the deal is [A] rotten
Old Black [C] Joe's still pickin' [Dm] cotton
For your ribbons and [Eb] bows [A]
And everybody [Dm] knows

And everybody [Dm] knows that the Plague is coming
Everybody [Bb] knows that it's moving fast
Everybody [Dm] knows that the naked man and woman
Are just a [Bb] shining artifact of the past
Everybody [Gm] knows the scene is [A] dead
But there's gonna be a [C] meter on your [Dm] bed
That will dis[Eb]close [A]
What everybody [Dm] knows

And everybody [Dm] knows that you're in trouble
Everybody [Bb] knows what you've been through
From the bloody [Dm] cross on top of Calvary
To the beach [Bb] of Malibu
Everybody [Gm] knows it's coming [A] apart
Take one last [C] look at this Sacred [Dm] Heart
Before it [Eb] blows
And everybody [Dm] knows

Everybody [F] knows, everybody [C] knows
That's how it [Dm] goes [C]
[Bb] Everybody [F] knows

Everybody [F] knows, everybody [C] knows
That's how it [Dm] goes [C]
[Bb] Everybody [F] knows [Dm]
