pre>esus4 e (strummed, then) intro:
Esus4 e b c#m7
Oooh ooooh oooh ooooh ooh ooooh (twice)
Followed by notes: e eb c# b e e f# g#
A b g#m a
The dreams and hopes of men are powered by addiction
A b g#m a
And who am i to say that this is an affliction
A b e a
When everybody gets suckered in and lives their lives like fiction
A b e
Writing their own stories of success
They say they want you for your colourful evocation
The way you turn a cliche into a sensation
But all they ever wanted was that same vibration
The one that shimmers round success
Chorus
Esus4 e b c#m7
Success success success success
Esus4 e b c#m7
Success success success success
E a e
All you ever need... success
[repeat intro]
You can't be happy while some one else has a fistful
They glow from tv screens healthy strong and fiscal
And everybody slaps their back while you're alone with a wristful
Jerking to the rhythm of success
[chorus]
