[Intro]
Bm Bm F# F# Em F# Bm Bm (2x)

[Verse 1]
       Bm              F#
He was born one Monday morning
       Em             Bm
And he was their only son
         Bm                      Em
And they said: His name shall be Peter
         G                       F#
Like the rock faith was founded upon
     Bm                       F#
They took him to church every Sunday
         Em                        Bm
And they picked him up right after school
         Em                         Bm
When the kids asked him out to come playin
       G         F#           Bm
He had something important to do
         D                   A
He would never be late for a lesson
         Em                      Bm
Kept his clothes always tidy and neat
      G                    Bm
Not a chance that he took, Peter played by the book
       G               F#        Bm
So the kids called him Principle Pete


[Verse 2]
        Bm                    F#
He grew up and became pretty handsome
          Em                       Bm
Finished school and his future was clear
             Bm                        Em
Don'€™t waste time with a life full of pleasure
        G                       F#
Settle down, have a wife and career
     Bm                           F#
Now some people called him the robot
   Em                     Bm
A cold-hearted, callous machine
     Em                     Bm
But all those attacks could not hold him back
          G        F#         Bm
He was proud to be Principle Pete


[Verse 3]
      D                     A
Every day on his way to the office
         Em                        Bm
He saw a girl singing songs in the street
         G                  D
She was tired of life as a vagabonds wife
         E                       A
And she dreamed of a man such as he
         D                            A
When she sang, she would leer at poor Peter
         Em                             Bm
When she winked, he looked down at his feet
         G                         Bm
When she gave him the eye, he just waved her goodbye
         G        F#        Bm
And went on being Principle Pete

[Interlude]
Bm  Bm  F#  F#  Em  F#  Bm  Bm
Bm  F#  Em  Bm  Bm  Em  G  F#
D  A  Em  Bm  G  Bm  G F# Bm

[Verse 4]
       Bm                    F#
Now we all have our secret desires
     Em                    Bm
Even Pete was a man deep inside
    Bm                       Em
She blew him a kiss then he couldn't resist
        G                       F#
As she crawled into him in the night
        D                      A
When he opened his eyes in the morning
         Em                           Bm
He could still feel her breath in his ear
          G                        D
Creeping under his skin, but like hell he'd give in
      E                       A
To a feeling so wondrous and weird


[Verse 5]
       D                   A
Peter shunned our girl ever after
        Em                     Bm
So that she wouldn't lead him astray
         G                         Bm
He would save all his love for the lord up above
        G                           F#
And the one that would once bear his name
       D                        A
Now if there is a moral to this story
           Em                       Bm
It's that stories don’t always end sweet
        G                        Bm
You may think this is wrong, but such is the song
    G         F#        Bm
