[C]
[Gb]
[A] [Am]
[E]
[A]
[E] Because I lost my job two [A]
weeks [E] before Christmas, [A]
[E] and I talked to Jesus at the sewer, [A]
and the
Pope said it was [E] none of his goddamn business.
[A]
While [E] the rain drank champagne, [A]
my Estonian
archangel [E] came and got me wasted, [A]
because [E] the sweetest kiss I ever got [A]
is the one I've
never [E] tasted.
[A]
Oh, but they'll [E] take their [A] bonus pay to [Ab]
[Abm] Molly [B] McDonald, [A] [E]
neon lady, [A]
beauties
that which obeys [Abm]
[Gb] is bought or [B] borrowed.
[E]
[A]
[E] Because my heart's become a crooked hotel [A] full [E] of
rumors, [A]
but [E] it's I who pays the rent for [A]
these fingered-face [E] attituners, [A]
and [E] I make sixteen
solid half-hour [A] friendships
[E] every evening, [A]
because [E] your queen of hearts who's half a stone and likes
to laugh [A] alone is always threatening you [E] with leaving.
[A]
Oh, but they'll [E] play those [A] token games
on [Abm]
Willie Thompson, [B]
[A] [E]
and give a medal to replace the [A] son of [Abm]
[B] Mrs.
Annie Johnson, [E]
[A]
[E] because they told
me everybody's got to pay their dues, [A]
and I explained that I had [E] overpaid them, [A]
[E] so overdue
I went to the company store, [A]
and the clerk there said that they [E] had just been invaded, [A]
[E] so I set
sail in a teardrop, [A]
and escaped [E] beneath the door sill, [A]
because [E] the smell of her perfume echoes in
my head still, [A]
[E]
[A]
[E]
[A]
because [E] I see my people trying to drown the sun [A]
in weekends of [E] whiskers hours,
[A]
[E] because how many times can you wake up in this comic [A] book [E] and plant flowers?
