I [Em] don't care to say what [C] I fail to [G] recognize [D] Every [Em] single day, from [C] the poker to [G] the prize
[D]
Running [Em] on a spring field, I [C] worked for the [G] capital air
In [D] the back, I found [Em] a woman there who said
[C]
She had a mind [G] to make [D] me a messenger man
[G] [A] [D] [Am]
If my [G] father [Am] took [G] his life for a national [D] land
[G] I [Am] don't care, I'm not about to stick my [G] grave With a paper man [D] stuck in a glass
Never [Am] ever, I [Em] can take the [D] pillowcases off the yellow [G] pillars

Bobby [D] don't look [G] back
[A] [Bm] [Am]
And if [Bm] my wife [Em] took [Am] a bicycle [G] ride with a knife in her [D] hand
I [G] saw [Am] it coming, all [A] the shattered [Am] flies run at [G] once
With a drum in [D] or a train, oh I'm running [Am] from it
Wait a minute, wait a minute, [G] give [D] a minute, [G] maybe I [D] can explain the apple [Am] shape
Wait [D] a minute, [Am] wait a minute, [Em] give [G] a minute, Bobby [D] got a shattered fly caught in his hair
