  • D7
    And what about my tailor my slowly mending lover
    A
  • She sews me clothes I could not bear to wait
    D7
    My hands are locusts at her work, a green and fitting coat
  • A
    Made upon the only honest loom
     
  • D7
    I remember last night's nightmare, my hand was in the road
    A G
  • The victim of some misdirected thresher
     
    A G#m (arpeggio)

  • To escape the homicide investigation men
     
    Bm E
  • And we're weaving through the traffic in the
    Dadd9 A
    Shuttle-through-the-loom way
  • Bm E
    We'll mix our drinks with water that's from
    Dadd9 A
  • Very far away
     
    Bm E
  • And we'll toast to every earthquake rolling
    Dadd9 A
    Underneath the bay
  • Bm E Dadd9
    And we'll pardon every public servant's heavy cane, ohhh
     
  • (They'll never know my name)

  • D7 (hold)
    So I've committed murder like a crazed and angered dope
    A
  • She's helped me plan a stunning getaway
    D7
    And when the lynch mob came and we escaped the heat
  • A
    And went dancing at the local cabaret
    D7
  • We left those lawmen standing with thirteen yards of rope
    A
    They'll never see me swinging from a palm tree
  • D7
    She'll be sure to keep me safe here, entangled in her arms
    A G
  • Cuz I'm for her but Stephanie's for L.A., ohhhh
     
    (*)
  • Stephanie's for L.A. (repeat several times)
     
    [(*)Note: The vocals are staggered here. Chords alternate between
  • A and G, just listen to the song to hear it]
    A G
    Aaaah, And I would like to board the skybird....
