DEven though red's not your color

AndBm fly you in the windy weather
Like a F#child bird marooned on an Disland of cats

With Bmcross-eyes and hats
They F#take mercy on you
They Dtake you for walks
The mAercy choir singing dismal Bmhymns watery bible rhymes

[Verse]
With a Dknapsack of trinkets
I'm Aoff to seek my fortune again
BmChasing ghosts of dead orphans
F#Friend, cousin, or kin
We Dwave to the passer by
AMoth wings of a butterfly
EBmndless tracks where no car pass
CF#lose your eyes and you can fly
I'm Doff to meet my soul mate
A nAaked fawny jailbait
BmWading into ponds
Filled withF# pollywogs at dawn
MDournin' the light
That sAlipped from my eyes
A Bmlittle child with dirty nails
F#And dirty hair
I had Ddirty things scrawled upon my Amind Bm F#
[Instrumental]
D A Bm F#
[Chorus] (Play four times)
DStick out your thumb and Alift up your skirt
BmSomeone's gonna stop here F#soon
DTake down your hair, Awind up your grin
BmSomeone's gonna take you F#home
