simple chords and an easy progression , but getting the momentum
and the timings of the lyrics might take a few listens
enjoy
flatwound

till the money runs out

E7 E7
check this strange beverage that falls out from the sky
E7 E7
splashin’ bagdad on the hudson in panther martin’s eyes
A7 A7
he’s high and outside wearin’ candy apple red
E7 E7
scarlet gave him twenty seven stitches in his head
B7 A7
with a pint of green chartreuse ain’t nothin’ seems right
E7 ( tacet )
you buy the sunday paper on a saturday night

E7 E7
well can’t you hear the thunder , someone stole my watch
E7 E7
i sold a quart of blood and bought a half a pint of scotch
A7 A7
some one tell those chinamen on telegraph canyon road
E7 E7
when you’re on the bill with the spoon there ain’t no time to unload
B7 A7 E7 ( tacet )
so bye bye baby , baby bye bye

play chords as a verse for instrumental

E7 E7
droopy stranger lonely dreamer toy puppy and the prado
E7 E7
we’re laughin’ as they piled into olmos’ el dorado
A7 A7
jesus whispered eeany meany meany miney moe ,
E7
they’re too proud to duck their heads
E7 B7 A7 E7 ( tacet )
that’s why they bring it down so low , so bye bye baby , baby bye bye

E7 E7
the pointed man is smack dab in the middle of july
E7 E7
swingin’ from the rafters in his brand new tie
A7 A7
he said i can’t go back to that hotel room , all they do is shout
E7 E7
but i’ll stay wichew baby till the money runs out
B7 A7 E7 ( tacet )
so bye bye baby baby bye bye
