Am               C               F        C          G
Gold teeth and a curse for this town were all in my mouth.
      C             F           Am    G
Only, i donʼt know how they got out, dear.
Am           C         F     C           G
Turn me back into the pet i was when we met.
       C        F          Am    G
I was happier then with no mind-set.

                 G       C
And if youʼd ʼa took to me like
F       C            G
A gull takes to the wind.
              G           C
Well, iʼd ʼa jumped from my tree
    F      C               F          C
And iʼd a danced like the king of the eyesores
         F           C              G
And the rest of our lives would ʼa fared well.

Am                  C            F          C             G
New slang when you notice the stripes, the dirt in your fries.
           C              F           Am G
Hope itʼs right when you die, old and bony.
Am                  C                F
Dawn breaks like a bull through the hall,
   C             G
never shouldʼve called.
        C             F            Am  G
But my headʼs to the wall and Iʼm lonely.

                 G       C
And if youʼd ʼa took to me like
F       C            G
A gull takes to the wind.
              G           C
Well, iʼd ʼa jumped from my tree
    F      C               F          C
And iʼd a danced like the king of the eyesores
         F           C              G
And the rest of our lives would ʼa fared well.

Am                C          F
God speed all the bakers at dawn
         C              G
May they all cut their thumbs,
          C           F             Am     G
And bleed into their buns ʼtil they melt away.

            G          C
Iʼm looking in on the good life
          F         C        G
I might be doomed never to find.
            G          C              F     C         G
Without a trust or flaming fields am I too dumb to refine?
                 G       C
And if youʼd ʼa took to me like
F           C               F            C
Well iʼd a danced like the queen of the eyesores
         F           C              G
And the rest of our lives would ʼa fared well.
