Capo 2 

(verse 1) 

      D          A            G        C 
I'm a broke down wreck with a ball and chain 
     D              A               G           C 
Just sitting in the kitchen with my fortune and fame 
          D           A             G          C 
There's a monkey in a mask and he's calling my name 
          F             C 
There's a midget on his back, 
            G       D        A 
Hes waiting for the midnight train 

A, Em, G, D (2x)  


           D       C  A 
Cause were pulling up stakes 
      F           G 
Gotta load up the car 
       D     C    A 
Get my right beat back 
        F   G 
Do some air guitar 

         F                C 
Cause Im running from the air-jets 
  G          D 
Inside of my head 
      F 
On my bed 
       C           G 
With a leg full of lead 
                       F 
We're trading gold for bread 

(same as verse 1)  

Well the militarized mistress yeah you sink like a stone 
Well I'm out here on the sidewalk where the buffalo roam 
I can see it in your crystal dancing in like a storm 
Blowing dusty through the kitchen 
While you're standing in your high heels in your hall 

A, Em, G, D (2X)  

D       C  A 
Cause were pulling up stakes 
      F           G 
Gotta load up the car 
       D     C    A 
Get my right beat back 
        F   G 
Do some air guitar 

         F                C 
Cause Im running from the air-jets 
  G          D 
Inside of my head 
      F 
On my bed 
       C           G 
With a leg full of lead 
                       F 
We're trading gold for bread 


(Same as verse 1) 
Yeah there's this choice you gotta make and itll cut to the coil 
Like a preacher throwing dice instead of seeds on the soil 
There's a lady and her lover and the'yre covered in oil 
Slipping down through the cracks 
With the attack and a face full of foil  

A, Em, G, D (2x) 

D       C  A 
Cause were pulling up stakes 
      F           G 
Gotta load up the car 
       D     C    A 
Get my right beat back 
        F   G

         F                C 
Cause Im running from the air-jets 
  G          D

      F 
On my bed 
       C           G 
With a leg full of lead 
                       F
