Intro
E C F# Am E
E Asus2 A E Asus2 ACause I lost my job two weeks before Christmas
E Asus2 A E Asus2 AAnd I talked to Jesus at the sewer and the Pope said it was none of his God-damned business
E Asus2 A E Asus2 AWhile the rain drank champagne my Estonian Archangel came and got me wasted
E Asus2 A E Asus2 ACause the sweetest kiss I ever got is the one I've never tasted
E A G#m BOh but they'll take their bonus pay to Molly McDonald,
E A G#m BNeon ladies, beauty is that which obeys, is bought or borrowed
Cause my heart's become a crooked hotel full of rumours
But it's I who pays the rent for these fingered-face out-of-tuners
and I make 16 solid half hour friendships every evening
Cause your queen of hearts who is half a stone And likes to laugh alone
is always threatening you with leaving
Oh but they play those token games on Willy Thompson
And give a medal to replace the son of Mrs. Annie Johnson
Cause they told me everybody's got to pay their dues
And I explained that I had overpaid them
So overdued I went to the company store
and the clerk there said that they had just been invaded
So I set sail in a teardrop and escaped beneath the doorsill
Cause the smell of her perfume echoes in my head still
Cause I see my people trying to drown the sun
In weekends of whiskey sours
Cause how many times can you wake up in this comic book and plant flowers?
