***INTRO: 
C  E7  Fmaj7  G7sus4  G7  C  Csus4

       C                       
If you want some real contentment,
   E7
to live life at its best,

        F+2                         
You can buy these dry tobacco leaves,
    Fm
to breathe into your chest.
         C              A7        
And then look up at the billboard,
D7            D6
while all the promises come

G   Gsus4/A      G5/B   G/B
true,         for you.
             C        
You'll feel alive with pleasure,
E7
playful as a child.
       F+2                      
You've come to where the freedom is.
       Fm
You're cool and mild.
       C                A7                  
You'll laugh with every lungful 
D7     D6                      G7sus4  G7   C   Csus4   G7sus4
as the change comes over you.
   G7sus4       G7    C   
So look up at the billboard.
        G7sus4        G7  C  
See her smiling, sexy and tan.
     
G/B     Csus4 G7sus4  G7    C        Am7        D7/F#      G  Gsus4/A
But the only   one   who's laughing
Am7        D7/F#      G  Gsus4/A
is the advertising man.
       C                        E7
Those portraits of pleasure, 
       E7
of those who like to smoke,
        F                               Fm
They're laughing in the photograph, 
    Fm
but we don't get the joke.
    C                 A7      D7            D6
Now why would they be smiling
D7            D6               G   Gsus4/A   G5          G/B
while they're looking down our way?
                       C          E7
I guess they're making easy money climbing up the rungs,
     F                            Fm
From selling us a parasite that's feeding on our lungs.
             C           A7                D7            D6
They must be laughing in astonishment 
     D7            D6            G7sus4  G7  C  Csus4  G7sus4
that we believe the things they say
   G7sus4       G7    C   
So look up at the billboard.
        G7sus4        G7  C  
See her smiling, sexy and tan.
     
G/B     Csus4 G7sus4  G7    C        Am7        D7/F#      G  Gsus4/A
But the only   one   who's laughing
Am7        D7/F#      G  Gsus4/A
is the advertising man.
    C                       
Now crack'll kill you quickly.
       E7
That's why it's got to go.
        F+2                    
They'll get more of your money 
        Fm
if they kill you nice and slow.
         E   D    C   B     A       G   G   G
And the on - ly  one who's laugh - ing  is the 

G7sus4   G7sus4      G7sus4       B    C   G  G7sus4  C+2  C
ad    -   ver    -    ti    -    sing man.
