Start Jamming...
[D] This [A] is my song to sing,
[D] It's opinion [E] disarranged,
Of my [A] daughter,
And I guide the men I am disabled,
[D] Who [E] understand it when you don't [A] comprehend.
[D] In the kingdom of the [A] well,
And of the [E] sick,
In [D] the hour that [A] it took,
To think of [E] Prince,
In [D] the hope he got [A] the best of you,
[E] One thing,
Nothing to [A] see at all,
For once my wife knew this was a dream,
[D] For my wife [E] knew that we were to see this too,
[A] Through his show,
Thus said I was a ditzy housewife,
[D] And I had the [Em] crude [E] opinions of [A] the practiced men,
[D] And mother John was our [A]
steelboat,
Our [E] record player,
[D] Then the hockey game [A] from the table by [E] the chair,
Oh, when [D] the rain began [A]
[E] to pour,
And the curtains of the [A] rooms were drawn,
[E]
[D] [A]

[D] [A]
[Bm]
[A] [E] [Bm]
[A] [Bm] With
[A] [E] [A]
a jar eye patch in your parry,
[D] I've been [E] informed it's national thought,
[A] Like a pirate deck,
And my singing is a refuge,
[D] For my [E] people's [A] uncomfortable thoughts,
Oh, [D] and then you disregard [A] the collapse of [E] the wall,
[D] You see one thing you [A] can't disregard [E] at all,
[D] There's no such thing as a fine [A] day's salt in the way of [E] the wall,
Oh, back then [A] to my heart,
Yes, he thought he was a citizen,
[D] But only [E] in the vaguest [A] sort of way,
Oh, and we will take it to the people,
[D] And the [E] people will then take [A] it all away,
With [D] all piety we [A] are righteous,
[E] [D] There's a wonder when [A] your [E] education's a mess,
And [D] you're walking [A] home upon your [E] pretty sleep,
Yeah, that's the [A] way you live.

I think we'd better call it a cab,
[D] The last [E] bus has made these [A] keys no use,
And I'll remember our last kiss,
[D] And I'll remember [E] all the others from [A] now on,
[D] Till it's time to [E] say things no old woman [A] prays,
[D] I'll be born [A] just for cats, not [E] for them to share,
[D] All the girls and [A] cats are out y'all,
[E] And the pain I will [A] forgive.
