Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Color [Em]the flower[A] s [Em]in
[A]rose [Em]and maroon
[Asus4]Light up the[A] fires and
[Asus4]season th[A]e swine
We're gonna [G]party like it's [D]1699

[Verse 2]
Slaughter the rabbits, [D]the doves
and the boars
And [G]lay all [Em]the tables and
[G]open [Em]the doors
The [Asus4]creme de la creme[A]
will [Asus4]be waiting
On one [A]guest [G]of honor[D]

[Verse 3]
Oh, [G]up go the curtains and
[Em]down go the virgins
Oh [D]No! Mothers are [C#]crying
[Em]Ladies of virtue will [G]stand to accuse
you [Asus4]of heartbreak and theft[A]

[Verse 4]
[D]Bells are gonna ring
[F#]Birds are gonna sing
[Bm]Let the people beg[Gm]in
The [D]crowning [Asus4]of your
[A]big [D]head[A]

[Verse 5]
[D]Young drunken girls in a hideous dance
Sing a [G]heartfelt lament of the
death of romance
[Asus4]Beautiful boys [A]turn and
[Asus4]offer their che[A]eks
Preening and [G]prancing,

[Verse 6]
the outcome looks bleak
[D]Good times are rolling but
outside these walls
Our [G]house[Dsus4] s will cru[G]mble,[Dsus4]
this [G]city will fall
But a [Asus4]few broken pawns[A]
don't mean [Asus4]nothing
To our [A]guest [G]of honor[D]

[Verse 7]
So [G]let's raise our glasses to
[Em]murderous asses like [D]you
May you sleep [C#]soundly
[Em]Once we had laughter,
[G]you got what you're after
Oh [Asus4]you wear it well[A]

[Verse 8]
[D]Bells are gonna ring
[F#]Birds are gonna sing
[Bm]Let the people beg[Gm]in

[Verse 9]
[D]Hear how the hearts are [G]pounding
We're [D]all witnessing the [G]crowning
Of [Em]your big [Asus4]bleed ing[A] hea[Dm]d

[Interlude 1]
[Bb][Gm]
[Em][Asus4][A]
[D]Birds are gonna sing
[F#]Bells are gonna ring
[Bm]Let the people beg[Gm]in

[Verse 10]
[D]Hear how the hearts are [G]pounding
Your [D]rise, nothing [G]but astounding
We're [D]all witnessing the [Bm]crowning
Of [Em]your useless [Asus4]ruth less[A] head[D]

[Outro 1]
