from the songs album Kerosene Hat
Intro & break:
Em-c-g-d(bass f#)
Em-c-g-d(bass f#)
Em-d-c-a-g-c
Em how can i fly with these c old doggy wings
While the g magpie sings some d(bass f#) shiny song?
Em old corn face row of teeth, she says c sweetly to me
In the g elevator d(bass f#)
Chorus:
Em everything d seems like a c dream
And a life's a scream.
G-c
Here come old kerosene hat
With his ear flaps waxed, a courting' his girl
Come clattering in here on your old cloven skates
With that devilish spoon
Chorus:
Everything seems like a dream
And life's a scream
When you're submarine
Break
So don't you bother me death with your leathery ways
And your old chaise lounge (old chaise lounge)
Wickerman's fence of leathery tyres
And the cook's gone bad, started several fires
Chorus:
Everything seems like a dream
When your submarine
Head like a stream she says softly to me
From the rattling chair
Bring me a steak and my old pair of crows,
My medicine lamp
Chorus:
Everything seems like a dream
So life's a scream
(life's a scream)
(ring-around-rosie, pocket full of posies)
(all fall down)
(?, don't suffer?)
(?)
(?)
(?)
(?)
(chaise lounge?)
