GD I'm gonna drink more whiskey than Brendan Behan CG I'm gonna send my belongings all to Tripoli CG And I'm gonna ride home to California DCG With a banjo on my knee GD I'm never gonna turn off the television CG I'm just gonna let it run all night CG I'm gonna plant root vegetables out in the back yard DD7 And come summer, I am going to treat you right CG So put on your Chairman Mao coat CG And let me clear my throat BmC Let's turn this whole town upside down CD Shake it 'til the coins come falling out of its pocket CG Yeah, put on your Che Guevara pin CG Call the troops on in EmD We're gonna sail through the night sky CG Like a pair of bottle rockets
GD I got a great big secret written down somewhere CG I got a rosary to protect us both from harm CG I got a storage locker full of cow figurines DD7 And a laundry list of grievances longer than my arm CG And I am never going back to Cincinatti CG All those bridges have been burned down to the ground CG I got the jetpack strapped to my back DD7 And I'm waiting for you to come around CG Yeah, put on your Chairman Mao coat CG And let me clear my throat BmC Let's turn this whole place upside down, yes CD Shake it 'til the coins come falling out of its pockets CG Yeah, put on your Che Guevara pin CG Call the troops on in EmD We're gonna sail through the night sky (muted) CG Like a pair of bottle rockets
