Start Jamming...
[E] [A] [E]
[G] [A]
[E] Cause I lost my job [G] two [A] weeks before [D] [E] Christmas
And [G] [A]
[E] I talked to Jesus at the sewer
And [A] the Pope said it was none of his [E] goddamn business
[D] [A]
[G] While [E] the rain drank champagne
[G] [A] My stony-haired angel came and got me [E] wasted
[Em] [A]
[E] Cause the sweetest kiss I ever [G] [A] got
Was the one I never [E] tasted
[G] Oh, [A]
but [E] they'll take that [A] bonus pay
To [B] [Abm]
Miley [B] McNamara
[E] Me [D] young [A] lady, beauty with your [Abm] baby
This bar [B] off our road
[G] [E]
[A]
[B] Cause [E] my heart's become a crooked [Em] hotel
[A] Full [E] of rumors
[Em] [A]
And [E] that's how I pays the rent
For [A] all these finger-faced [G] out [E]-of -tuners
[A] And [E] I make sixteen solid half-hour [A] friendships
[E] Every evening
Cause [Em]
[A] [E] your queen of hearts who is half a stone
[A] And likes to laugh alone
Is always threatening you [E] with a leave-in
[A]
[D] Oh, but [E] they'll play those [G] token [A] games
On [G]
[Abm] Willie [B] Thompson
Give [E]
[G] them [A] metal to [G] replace [Ab] the sun
[Abm] For Mrs.
[G] Annie [B] Johnson
Cause [E] [B] [Em] [A]
they [E] told me everybody's gotta pay [Bm] their dues
[A] I explained I'd already [E] overpaid them
[Em] So [A]
[E] overdue, I went to the company [A] store
And the clerk there said I'd just [E] been invaded
[A] So [Bm] I [E] set sail in a teardrop
[A] And escaped [Bm] beneath [E] the doorstep
Cause [A]
[E] the smell of her [Em] perfume
[A] Echoes [E] in my head still
[A]
[E] [A]
Cause [E] I see my people trying to drown the [A] sun
In weekends of whiskey [E]
sour
Cause [G] [A]
[E] how many times can you wake [A] up in this comic book
[Bm] And plant [E] flowers?
[A] [E]
[Em] [C]
