This song is, is, is, sincerely, this is really quite unique to our situation for, this song I have never,
please don't correct me anybody, because I'm sure I'm right on this,
I've never ever performed this in my life, until this minute.
One of the reasons probably is that it reads, there are more words in this than there are in Tolstoy's War and Peace.
This thing goes on, it goes on, it's not just these three papers, this entire book.
Let's all wish this, all of us, luck.
On this one.
Off you go.
[Dm]
[G] [D] [C]
[D]
[G] [C] And the story goes, they wore the clothes, they said the things to make it [Dm] seem probable,
[G]
the brave never lie [C] like they hope it was,
[Dm] [A]
[C] and the good men tomorrow have their feet in the wallow,
[Dm] and their heads are blown, and they say [G] shame, how they took their [C] positions with saccharine and trust,
[Dm] and the world is asleep to [A] a little fuss.
[C]
[Dm] Sighing, we swell through the [G] streets like the crust of a sound of [Am] youthful bliss,
[G] and our wings had [D] parted, flashing [F] teeth of brass, [E] standing tall in the dark, oh, we [G] were gone.
Hanging out with your [F] dark men, we were so [Dm] damn dumb, in lack of [Bb] conclusions.
[C]
[Dm] [G]
[C] I was stolen, he was whacked, so he could snooze and still [Dm] relax, unbelievable.
[G]
And we frightened the small [C] children away,
[Dm] [G]
[C] and our talk was old and dust would float through our veins,
although we were sleeping [Dm] on the kitchen door, [G]
like the grim face on the [C] cathedral floor,
[Dm] and the solid book we wrote [G] cannot be found today.
[C]
And [Dm] it was stocking time [G] for the Moonboys and the [Am] Beaulieu Brothers,
[A] with [G] our backs on the arch, and [F] the devil ain't needed, but he [E] can sing about that, oh, [G] we were gone.
Mule [F] cool traitors, we were so [Dm] damn young, we thought we [Bb] were fakers.
[C]
[D] [G]
[C] Now the dress is on, the ticket porn, the factor match that grew, the [Dm] butt is melted down,
[G] I'm woven on the edging of [C] my pillow,
[D] [Dm] [G]
and [C] my brother lays upon the rocks.
He could be dead, [A] he could be not, [Dm] he could be you, [G] he's chameleon, comedian, clown, [C] singer, caricature,
[Dm] shooting up high in [G] the sky, the [C] Beaulieu Brothers,
[D] and the [Dm] feeble and the bad, [G]
the [Am] Beaulieu Brothers.
And [G] the blessed and cold, and [F] the crutch and the guitar, was [E] where we made our mark, oh, [G] we were gone.
Kings [F] of oblivion, we were [Dm] settled down, in the [Bb] minecraft pavilion.
[Am] Lie me twice [Bb] and break me [Eb] pie, I'm starving, [Am] oh, be righty.
Leave my shoes [Bb] and go run [Eb] rocks high, I just sleep [Am] a while.
Just for [Eb] the time, please come [Am] a while.
