Intro

Verse 1

 I know so many people who think they can do it alone

 They oscillate their heads and stay in the city zone

But what can ya tell them

 What can ya say that will make them defensive?

Chorus

 So, hang on to your ego.

 hang on, but I know that your gonna lose the fight

 they come home like they're peaceful, but inside their so uptight

 they troop through their day and waste all their thoughts at night

Verse 2

but how can I say it

 how can I come home when I know I'm guilty

 So, hang on to your ego.

 hang on, but I know that your gonna lose the fight

he tunes down to Eb for the record, this version is fingered in

in E which is probably closer to what he fingers.
