electric part chords

Esus4 E          B     G D                            A
The minstrel in the gallery looked down upon the smiling faces.
A E             A B                  G D                   A
 He met the gazes --- observed the spaces between the old men's cackle.
A E                 A B                G D                        A
Then he brewed a song of love and hatred--obliquesuggestions and he waited.
A E          A B                G D              A
He polarized the pumpkin-eaters --- static-humming panel-beaters ---
 

Bm    E             A  F#m    D          E            F#m
The minstrel in the gallery looked down on the rabbit-run.
D      E             A    F#m       D     E            F#m E
And threw away his looking-glass - saw his face in everyone.
(REST THE SAME)

He pacified the nappy-suffering, infant-bleating
  one-line jokers --- T.V. documentary makers
  (overfed and undertakers).
Sunday paper backgammon players --- family-scarred
  and women-haters.
Then he called the band down to the stage and he
  looked at all the friends he'd made.

The minstrel in the gallery looked down on the
  rabbit-run.
And threw away his looking-glass - saw his face in
  everyone.
