I know this is not correct, as they play it out of C, but that is far to high a key for
myself to sing in, and I assume others are like this as well. So, I have moved it down
to a more common key of A. Please note, this tab IS in a different key, and will sound
differently.
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 2]
A D
She asked me, "Son, when I grow old,
F#m E
Will you buy me a house of gold?
A D
And when your father turns to stone,
A E A
Will you take care of me?"
[Bridge 1]
D F#m
I will make you
Bm Gm D
Queen of everything you see
A
I'll put you on the map
D A
I'll cure you of disease
[Verse 1]
A D
Let's say we up and left this town
F#m E
And turned our future upside-down
A D
We'll make pretend that you and me
C E A
Lived ever after, happily
[Chorus 3]
[Bridge 2]
[Verse 2]
A D
And since we know that dreams are dead
F#m E
And life turns plans up on their head
A D
I will plan to be a bum
A E A
So I just might become someone
[Chorus 4]
[Bridge 3]
