Nimrod's Son Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][G][F][G]
[F][C]
One night [C]upon [G]my motorcycle through

[Verse 1]
[C]
the desert [G]sped,
And smashed my body so bad, all
my friends thought I [G]was dead.[F]
My sister held me close and whispered
to my bleeding head,
"You are the son of a motherfucker[C]."
[F]One, two, three,

[Verse 2]
four...
I shook all night [Bb]and held her hand - - choke

[Verse 3]
the people,
well, I'll [B]be damned.
[F]Land of plenty, lan[Bb]d of fun,
to find out I'm Nim[Cb]rod's [F]son.
[Bb]

[Verse 4]
Oh, bury me far
away, please bury me.
[F]Ahhh...[Bb][C][Bb]
[C]the joke has come [Bb]upon me!
[Bb][C][Cm][C]

[Verse 5]
In my motorcycle mirror,
I think about [C]the life I've led,
And how my soul's been leaking,
all the holes [Cm]where I have bled.
[Ab]My image spoke to me,
yes to me, and often said,
"You are the son of inces
[F]tuous union."

[Verse 6]
One, two, three...
Now my head [F]is clear, [Bb]my roof has walls,
my daughter's pure, my son [Cb]is ta[C]ll.[G]
[F]Land of plenty, land of [Bb]fun,
to find out I'm Nim[Cb]rod's son.

[Verse 7]
[Bb]Oh, bury me far away,
please bury [F]me.
[Bb]
Ah[Bb]h h.[C].. the[Bb] jok[C]e
has [Bb]come upon [Cm]me!
