[C]
Oh, the sun was riding up on the [F] quasar
was a jingle and there was a jar
Rocks of silver, just metal and gold
I asked him to come on in out of the cold
[Am] Rain [Em] was boiling, [C] the breeze was [F] fast
[Am] He said, nothing is [C] borrowed, nothing is left
[Am] [C] I asked him for my six, he gave me a gun
Oh, the sun was riding up on the [F] quasar
was a jingle and there was a jar
Rocks of silver, just metal and gold
I asked him to come on in out of the cold
[Am] Rain [Em] was boiling, [C] the breeze was [F] fast
[Am] He said, nothing is [C] borrowed, nothing is left
[Am] [C] I asked him for my six, he gave me a gun
