Chords for Fred Eaglesmith - White Trash

[G#m] _ _ [E] _ _ [A] _ [E] Well, you notice that after we were [N] singing all these songs about cars and guns and divorce,
that we were starting to lose [E] our folk audience, you [E] know.
[A] And [N] it slowly just drifted away, you know, to _ [E] bring your pastors, you know.
[Cm] I thought I would write a sing-along song that would bring me and them [G#m] back into the fold.
_ [B] You know, [Em] feel [G#m] like we were one again, you know.
[B] If there was any less people in some of those folk clubs, we would be [E] one.
You know.
_ Woo!
_ [Bm] _ _
[N] I [G#] was even thinking about wearing Birkenstocks, but I just couldn't get tall enough [Em] to fit in the [B] microphone.
You know, maybe [N] putting on some greys [E] and pastels and stuff. _
_ [B] _ [E] I [B] didn't feel like [B] myself really that much, you know.
So I just [E] thought I'd write this [Cm] song, just so there's no mistaking that we're all one.
I thought I would teach it to [B] you tonight, and you can hum it on your way out. _ _ _ _ _
When America, she was a union queen, who wanted something more.
Now she's hanging out with [E] me in a [B] front-hall [E] liquor store.
And it won't start when you shut it off, [A] till she [C#m] has to get [F#] the beer.
[B] She was in [E] the basement, [B] in some quiet little Cincinnati. Hey, buddy.
[E] _ [C#] _ [Em] [B] Where [E] exactly [B] do we put our white trash?
How come we got seven dollars left in the trash?
[E] How come the only track [A] in our car is [F#m] Johnny Cash?
[E] _ _ _ [B] Where exactly do we put our white [E] trash?
_ _ _ _ _ [B]
Wrong town.
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] Maybe it's the right town.
You all pick your houses [E] and stay in color.
_ _ _ _ _ Maybe you guys just all came in because it's like propane, or something, from the trailer park. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ There's no wind-breeding here in the Carb-E-Gen-Ez.
[E] Get that out of my house.
_ _ _ [B] Are we ready?
[E] _
That's better.
_ _ [Bm] The further we get from [Em] Canada, the more yahoo-y they [Bm] get.
[B] The time we get down south, they just shoot us a lead [E] right in the spine.
[Em] You [B] know, it's just too [E] good for the other.
_ I don't want to have any [G#m] more, but they'll just shoot a million.
I'm just kidding.
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] I'm just saying, you're just [E] clapping now.
Are we ready?
[B] I don't know if people are over your answer until the end of the year or not.
[Em] I think we're in the weekends [E] around here.
_ _ _ _ _ Where exactly [B]
do we become our trash?
How come we got seven dogs [E] living in the grass?
How come the only egg-tracking on [A] our farm is [F#m] Jolly Crab?
_ [Em] [E] Where exactly [B] do we become [E] our trash?
Okay, quick clap, [B] quick clap, or your tummy's going to blow.
[E] _ _ [Em] It is propane, man.
_ [E] _ _
_ _ _ And she tells everybody [B] that I've got my PhD.
But it stands for Postal Digger.
[E] Ain't a degree.
That double Y is a triple Y.
[A] Now that she's [F#m] with me, [B] [E] there's curtains on the window, and [B] we hardly watch [E] TV. _
[B] She says, when [E] exactly [B] do we become our trash?
How come we got seven [E] dogs in the grass? _
[B] How [E] come the only egg-tracking on [A] our farm is [F#m] Jolly Crab?
[E] Where exactly [B] do we become our [E] trash?
Girls?
[B] Where [E] exactly [B] do we become [E] our trash?
Boys?
[B] _ _ _
[E] Where exactly [B] do we become our trash?
Where [E] _ _ _ _ exactly [B] do we become [B] our trash?
