[Gm] [Dm]
[A#] And if one day I should become a singer with a Spanish [Gm] bum who [Dm] sings for women of great virtue
[Gm] I'd sing to them with the guitar I borrowed [A#] from a coffee bar.
Well, what you don't know [Gm] doesn't hurt [G]
you
My name would be [Bm] Antonio and all [D] my bridges I would [Em] burn and when I gave them some [G] they'd know I'd expect [C] something in [Bm] return
[C] [D]
[A] I'd have to [Am] get drunk every [C] night and talk about [Em] virility with some [C] old grandmama [D] who might be decked out like a [B] Christmas tree
[E] And though [Bm] pink elephants I'd see though I'd be drunk as I [Em] could be still I [Bm] would sing my [Em] songs to me about [Am] the
Time they [G] called me Shaggy if I could be
[Bm]
For [Em] only an hour [Bm] if I [G] could be [Bm] for an hour [C] every [D] day
I could be [C] but just one little hour [D] a cute cute in a stupid [Gm] ass way
And if I joined the social world became procurer of young girls and I [Dm] would have my own bordellos
[Gm] My record would be number one and I'd sell records by the time all sung by many other [D] fellows
[G] I'm in with envy [Bm] hasn't Jack can I sell boats of [Em] opium?
Whiskey that came from [G] bringing um off any queers [C] and found [Bm] he [Em] [D] virgins
[Am] If I had banks on [E] everything a finger in every [C] country and all the countries ruled by [Bm] me
I'd still know where I [B] want to be
[E] Locked up [Bm] inside my [Em] opium then surrounded [D] by some [Em] Chinamen
I'd sing [D] the song that I [Em] sang then about [F#] the time they [G] called me Shaggy
For only an hour if I could be [Bm] for an hour [C] every [D] day
If I could be [C] but just one little [D] hour
Cute cute [Dm] in a stupid ass way
[Gm] Now [Dm] tell me wouldn't it be [Gm] nice that if [Dm] one day in [Gm] paradise I'd [Dm] sing for all the ladies up there
[Gm] And they [Dm] would sing along with [Gm] me we'd be [Dm] so happy there to be cuz down below is [Gm] really [D] nowhere
[G] And my name was [Bm] Juniper
Then I would know where I [Em] was going and then I would become [Bm] all-knowing [G] my beard so [C] very [D] long and [G] blow
[D]
[Am] If I became deaf [C#m] dumb and blind because I pity [C] all mankind and broke my heart [D] to make things right
I'd [B] know that every single night
[Em] But [Bm] my angelic work [Em] was through the [D] angels and the [Em] devil too would [D] sing my childhood [Em] song to me about [F#] the time they [G] called me Shaggy
But
[C] [D] [C]
[D] you in a stupid ass way
