[Intro 1]
[Am][F][Am][F]
[Am][F][Bb][F]
[Am]A borrowed fern with a cigar

[Verse 1]
[F]
ette burn
And [Am]a pawn shop ring in [F]her hand
[Am]At the Idaho courts to
[F]af firm our [Dm]divorce
Be[Bb]fore the mar[Dm]riage [F]began
[Am]In a celery boat singing tri[F]angle notes
[Am]To a horn from the military ba[F]nd[Am]
The spectreworks care of [F]Pepper
[Dm]& Di[Bb]rcks'
[Dm]Bargain Ghost and [F]Haunted Man
We [Am]awkwardly shielded the
[F]curious eye[Am]s
Of innocent pines from the [F]forest floor
[Am]From the frying pan of a cel[F]ibate man
[Am]To t[Bb]he fires of the prema
[F]ture
[Dm]Who could ask [Bb]for noth[F]ing more?
[Am]We're

[Verse 2]
an unshrunk patch on
a tear of the [Dm]edge
We're [Am]an unshrunk patch
on a tear of the [F]edge
[Am]We're a campaign badge,
the short-lived match
match
Of [Dm]an unshrunk patch in
the bellow's edge

[Verse 3]
On the iron lungs of our language
[Dm]A by-now acquired acquired a fern
with a cigarette burn
In a bas[Am]ket with a (rect
[Dm]angle) note on the bedroom floor
[Am]They repaired my fence, thos[F]e bastards
I [Dm]can 't go back home [F]no more
Save [Am]by a roundabout way,
[F]unto each day
[Am]Is sufficient misfortune [F]thereof
With [Am]which to spend in proportion
to [F]your modest pay
While [Am]shopping around for a
[F]word like [Am]'love'
With obedient trust [F]as
a babe in the womb
And im[Am]peccably chaste as
a [F]priest in the tomb
[Am]With a Deadwood map [F]and
a dynamite hat
[Dm]I'll come back [Bb]to Id[Dm]aho [F]soon
[Gm]Harmless[Bb] as a [F]Danish car[Dm]
[F]toon[Dm]
[F][Am][Dm]

[Verse 4]
[Dm]
This is not the first [F]time
[Am]This is not the first time G-d [Dm]has has died
This is not the first [F]time
[Am]This is not the first [Dm]time G-d has has died
This is not the first [F]time [Am]capitalized
three lettered [Dm]sound has died
This is not the [F]first time
[Am]This is not the first time
[F]
[Am]

[Verse 5]
Won't you help me get by?
Will you help me get by?
Won't you [Dm]help me get [Am]by?
Will you help [C]me [F]get[Am] by?
Won't you help me get by?
Will you [Dm]help me get [C]by?
