Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G]

[Verse 1]
[D]He came with his friends,
in a caravan
[F#]To witness the governor's [G]ball
[D]Sat by himself on a cool
patch of grass
While the [G]rest stood like
bricks in a [A]wall
[Bm]The stage it looked like a
[G]vending machine
[F#]The singer, a black barbie [Bm]doll
But it was [D]well light, and well [G]managed
Said [D]our property, would be [G]damaged
Until [D]his boredom, took full [A]ad [G]vantage
Of [D]it all

[Verse 2]
[D]
Talk to a girl, with klonopin eyes
[F#]Who said she had jewelry to [G]sell
[D]First he said "no thanks"
then he realized
That [G]he wasn't feeling that [A]well
And [Bm]he took what she held
looked like [G]pieces of sky
And a [F#]garnet like teardrops [Bm]from hell
She [D]offered, him a [G]necklace,
[D]and he wanted [G]to accept it
But it would [D]end up, too [A]ex pensive,
[G]he could tel[D]l
Then she [G]said
"Why [D]not[G]
What have you [D]got
To [Em]lose

[Interlude 1]
To lose"
[G][A][D][G][D][G][D]
[G]When he

[Verse 3]
[D]never came back,
and the curve you have pathed
His [F#]friends searched the fair
grounds for [G]clues
The se[D]curity guard
with the maniacal laugh
Said it[G]s always the leader you [A]lose
And he [Bm]finally turned up in
[G]the broad light of day
With a [F#]black eye as big as [Bm]the moon
They all [D]asked him, what had [G]happened
Was it [D]real or, [G]imagined
Why [D]on earth had,
he [A]abandon [G]them so [D]soon
And he [G]said
"Why [D]not
[G]I do what I've g[D]ot
[Em]To do
Its [G]what you [A]do"

[Outro 1]
[D][A][G][D][A]
[G][D][A][G][D][A][G][F#][Em][D]
