Am, A7, Dm

Jockey full of bourbon

Am
edna Million in a drop-dead suit
                                                   E7
dutch pink on a downtown train
 
Two-dollar pistol but the gun won t shoot
                                                Am
I m in the corner on the pouring rain
 
16 men on a deadman s chest
                                                           E7
and I ve been drinking from a broken cup
 
Two pairs of pants and a mohair vest
                                                   Am
I m full of bourbon; I can t stand up

Dm                     Am
Hey little bird,   fly away home
          E7                                    Am
Your house is on fire; your children are alone
Dm                      Am
Hey little bird,   fly away home
              E7                                 Am
Your house is on fire; your children are alone

Am 
Schiffer broke a bottle on Morgan s head
                                                                      E7
and I ve been stepping on the devil s tail

across the stripes of a full moon s head
                                                    Am
Through the bars of a cuban jail

bloody fingers on a purple knife
                                                                    E7
a flamingo drinking from a cocktail glass

I m on the lawn with someone else s wife
                                                                                Am
come admire the view from up on top of the mast

Dm                     Am
Hey little bird,   fly away home
             E7                                  Am
Your house is on fire; your children are alone
Dm                     Am
Hey little bird,   fly away home
             E7                                 Am
Your house is on fire; your children are alone
 
Am
Yellow sheets on a Hong Kong bed
                                                           E7
Stayzbo horn and a Slingerland ride

"To the carnival" is what she said
                                                            Am
a hundred dollars makes it dark inside

edna Million in a drop-dead suit
                                                     E7
dutch pink on a downtown train

Two-dollar pistol but the gun won t shoot
                                                Am
I m in the corner on the pouring rain
