Fly on a Windshield/Broadway Melody of 1974 Intro: alternating between Em and G

Th^Gere's something s^Emolid forming in the air, And the wall of ^Gdeath is lowered in Times Square. ^Em ^CNo-one seems ^Emto care, They carry ^Amon as if nothing was there. ^Em

^B/GThe wind is blowing harder now, ^G5 Gadd9 Em (VII) Blowing dust into my eyes. The dust ^B/Gsettles on my skin, ^G5 Gadd9 Em (VII) Making a crust I cannot move in Em(XII) Em/maj7 Em6 Em/maj7 And I'm hovering like a fly, waiting for the windshield on the freeway.

Instrumental Interlude: alternating Em and G for many measures, then F# G F# G B C B C D Eb D Eb F F+ Echoes of the Broadway Everglades,

With her mythical^Bbm madonnas still walk^Dbing in their shad^Fes: F F+ Lenny Bruce, declares a truce and plays his other hand. ^BbmMarshall Mcluhan, casual viewin', head burie^Dbd in the sand. ^F ^FSirens on the rooftops ^F7wailing, but there's no ship^Bbm saili^Dbng. ^Eb ^FGroucho, with his movies trailin^F7g, stands alone with his ^Bmpunchline ^Eb ^Dbfailin^Fg.

(as above except for last line) Klu Klux Klan serve hot soul food and the band plays 'In the Mood' The cheerleader waves her cyanide wand, there's a smell of peach blossom and bitter almonde. Caryl Chessman sniffs the air and leads the parade, he knows in a scent, you can bottle all you made. There's Howard Hughes in blue suede shoes, smiling at the majorettes smoking Winston Cigarettes. And as the song and dance begins, the children play at home

with needles;^Bb needles ^Cand pins. ^D Outro:
