[Em]
[G] [Em]
Standing in line at the equestrian bar
Looks like it's about to rain
I got two small kids and I'm late on [G] the rain
Wives been two [A] weeks to the day
Been two [A] weeks to the
Two [Em] weeks to the day
Well, the sun came out but it was cold as hell
My fingers were as numb as my mind
When my quarter horse raced, kicked me in the head
Well, I was [A] chewing the muck from behind
[G] Chewing the muck
Chewing the [Em] muck from behind
[E] But every now [Am] and then I can't eat more
I'm a zamb in the [G] shadow of a skateboard
I'm a lunatic [B] looking for the keyhole
I hate my kids [Em] but I don't mean to
I'm a dead dog [Am] lying on the sidewalk
Another victim of the [G] mortgage bubble pipe
Waiting on the [B] earliest you to drop
[Em]
A little new lives at the house next down
Got a head full of auburn curls
I seen her standing in the mud with a baseball glove
Spitting at the other girls
[D] Spitting at the
Spitting at the [Em] other girls
When did she come in the afternoon
With some apples and a pack of ribs
She bathes my babies and she reads me to sleep
[A] Nothing much ever gets said
[G] Nothing much [A] ever gets
Nothing much [Em] ever gets said
[E] But every now and [Am] then I get evil
I'm ashamed in the [G] shadow of a steeple
I'm a lunatic [B] looking for a keyhole
I hate my kids but I [E] don't mean to
I'm a dead dog [Am] lying on the sidewalk
Another victim of the [G] mortgage bubble pipe
Waiting on the [B] earliest you to drop
[E] [Em]
[E] [D]
[Em] [G]
[Eb] Will the cops show up [Bm] with the lights turned on
[E] Judge Johnny from across the street
[Dm] Had some cold last night, something didn't [D] look right
Grab your things, you better come [E] with me
[Em] Accusation, you don't look with the on light
She said, don't you pay us no mind
All we ever shared was loneliness
He and I was two [Em] of a kind
[G] He and I was two [A] of a, was two [Em] of a kind
[E] But every now and then I [Am] get evil
I'm ashamed in the shadow [G] of a steeple
I'm a lunatic looking [B] for a keyhole
I hate my kids but I don't [E] mean to
I'm a dead dog lying [Am] on the sidewalk
Another victim of the [G] mortgage bubble pipe
