verse: just me still
E E G#m C#m A A E E
back in the day when i grew stalks of corn
i traveled across the land
and everyone wanted my ass
F# E A E
people stood with hands at their sides
and they dreamt of standing in line
A C#m B B A Astc
but I never knew if it twere me or the rain
that they wanted to be showered with
but they never gave me a chance
everyone comes in loudly
E A E E
bum chick chick up strokes

E E G#m C#m A A E E
back in the day when i had 73 wives
I found a magic ro-ho-hope
but before I could use it
it got tangled in my hair
F# E A E
my mouth was run dry and my teeth were all pulled
I couldn't say a wo-ho-hord
A C#m B B A Astc
even the crows couldn't crow
at the sight of my show
therefore I knew that I was
a go-hon-er er er

verse:
E E G#m C#m A A E E
stargazing lilies by dirty blue meadows
are waiting for some ai-ha-air
but air is so far away hey hey
F# E A E
shining her petals through 'lectrical wires
we'll photosynthesi-hi-hi-hize
A C#m B B A Astc
our accomodation's in a distant ship
that has its anchor down
in the sea
E A E E
