A F#
And you dug up the deed in the dump where he died,
D5 E5 D5 E5
You seemed beside yourself; youre wandering all your wealth.
A F#
While the warp and the woof of your words were worked
A F#
By perpetually pushing spirits and beers,
D5 E5
Cause the coffin the cradle the curse
D5 E5
Were woven even worse.
A5 G5
Since the sary sends signs out the fire to whom it may concern:
Bm Bbm
Cause the coffin is for me cause I have nothing to do with it;
A5 G5
And the cradle is for me cause the old dragon attacked me in it;
Bm Bbm
And the purse is for me because I dont have money nor friends.
