[N] What are you saying?
Did you say Nirvana?
Why are you saying Nirvana?
Can you clarify this request for me?
I don't understand it.
It's like, because it is like, this doesn't seem like the show where the guy gets drunk and then says like, you know, Nashville hot chicken.
And you go, I don't know what you're saying, sir.
You seem to be drunk.
[E] So, I don't know any songs by Nirvana.
They were from Washington and I don't really play that kind of music.
[D]
[Em]
[G]
[A] [D] Just for you.
[Em]
[G]
[A] [D]
I don't know the words to this song.
Let's be real about it.
[Em]
[G]
[A] [D]
Somebody better get your phone out.
I'm going to need you.
[Em]
[G]
[A] [D]
You must try [Em] to lead a good life.
[D] You must do unto others as you would have them do.
So that when you die, you'll [Em] find golden boy peanuts
[D] waiting [A] in the afterlife [D] for you.
There are no Pan-Asian [Em]
supermarkets down in hell.
[G] So you can't find golden [D] boy peanuts.
There are no Pan-Asian [Em] supermarkets down in hell.
[E] So you can't find golden [D] boy peanuts.
Many people have [Em]
observed.
[E]
[D] People do.
It's pretty awesome.
Like I was thinking about something.
Does that exist?
[Em] It existed for sure.
And they will [G] devote a lot of time and energy to try [D] to determine whether or not it still exists anywhere.
There are no golden boy [E] peanuts left in this world as far as [Em] anyone can [E] tell.
[D]
But if I can just get spiritual with you for a moment.
[Em]
The song says [D]
that in hell.
Hell, the place of eternal suffering and torment.
[Em] The place where no happiness can be found.
[D]
That's the place where no golden boy peanuts are.
But it's also been [Em] further observed that we now all.
[D]
You and I, your parents, your friends, your enemies, [Em]
strangers.
All [E] live in a place where there are no such peanuts.
[D]
[Em]
[E]
[N]
[Eb]
[D] If thine enemy [Em] oppresseth you, [A] you must let him oppress you [D] some more.
So that when you die, you'll find.
No, no, not golden boy peanuts.
No, just that guy.
What's that?
So when you go shopping, that's right.
[E]
[N] Because as we know, what greater eternal fate could await us than to express our consumer preferences?
You [D]
go shopping [Em] in [D]
paradise, you'll find those magnificent peanuts from Singapore with the drawing of the young Chinese farmer.
[A] The rising sun behind him [D] gazing at you from the shelves.
If we're going to find eternity [Em] paradise, [E]
we're going to have to watch [D]
ourselves.
You must [Em] give to the march of dimes.
[A] You must be on guard against wickedness [D] at all times.
And you will find that your efforts [Em] have brought you great joy [E] when your shades down there munching on that [D] golden boy.
There are no Pan-Asian [Em]
supermarkets down in hell.
[E] So you can't [D] find golden boy peanuts there.
But the streets of [Em] heaven are lined with shells [A] and there's billboards of the golden [D] boy everywhere.
There [Em] are no Pan-Asian supermarkets down in hell.
[E] So you can't find golden [D] boy peanuts.
There are no Pan-Asian [Em] supermarkets down in hell.
[E] So you can't find golden boy peanuts.
