Lost [D] in delirium, he [Eb] was _ _ [F] Napoleon's [Bb] charred door.
And _ [G] Rodino, always [D] feeble, always [Eb] the grave [Bb] of a keldron.
[G] _ Down at [D] the floor, dead, he was [Eb] a priest with a [Bb] tin hat, whom [F] [Bb] inside the spike room [D] was a gunshot.
Oh, hey, _ hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, [G] hey.
Oh, [F] she can do [Bb] anything, she [Eb] can fight [D] anyone, [Eb] doing the same [Ab] routine over and over.
[G] _ [F] Oh, there's a [Bb] diamond ring, [Eb] covered in [G] [D] cavity, [Eb] marching through slavery [Ab] that's older and [G] older.
Oh, she can [F] do [Eb] _ [Bb] anything, win [Eb] the straight and [D] every one, [Eb] doing the [Bb] same [Ab] routine over and [G] over. _
Writing a [Bb] symphony, or [Eb] trying to get hard in [D] it, [Eb] or even [Bb] practice [Ab] it.

_ _ _ [Ab] It's Monday, it's Tuesday, [Cm] and nothing is happening.
[Gm] _
_ Squirrels [D] and ducks pushing [Eb] marbles, [Bb] the conifer [Gm] _ forest [D] is yours for [Eb] the rest of [Bb] the day.

_ [D] _ _ [Gbm] Follow the tracks in the m _ _ _ [G]- to find your way home.
[E] _ Going vultures [B] and [A] flickering _ [E] lanterns, trotting away [B] to the square [A] of your [Ab] mind.
