No capo Intro and Chorus:

And the ^Gband ^D7played ^Gon As the ^Ghelic^C5opters ^Dwhirred

^CDrunk on the ^A7lawn in a nuc^Glear ^Emdawn My ^Gsenses ^Dfinally ^Gblurred

Verse:

^D7He was a ^Grock, to the ^C5end a solid remin^Gder Couldn't ^Amdeny a f^D7riend

^D7We lived in the ^Gnoise and the ^C5sweet amber ^Gposion ^BmPeekin' up the skirt of the ^Cend

^D7And we'd ^Gdrink, ^C5two gnarly dudes and some ^Grecords Much like ^Amplates of black ^D7food

^D7We filled up our ^Gfaces, ^C5saw some far ^Gplaces ^BmStood on the roof in the ^Cnude ^D7

-Chorus- Verse: Between poles, he said "we're like cows in the grass" Brushing off flies Chaise lounging around standing up, falling down 'Till we no longer opened our eyes And we'd drink, ever notice how drinking's like war Cup 'o' troops o'er the gums To the end of our health a campaign 'gaisnt myself Armed with bourons and scotches and rums -Chorus- Verse: Think of bombs, we're poised on the edge of disaster Whether it's right or it's wrong We opened the window, played some Nintendo Sang a few bars of some pretty old song:

^GIr^Cene ^Ggoodnight, ^DIrene ^Ggoodnight Goodnig^Ght Irene g^G7oodnight ^CIrene

I'll see you^G in my ^D7dreams ^G ^D7 Oh to dream, those impotent bones of extinction Flying graceful and free None but the best cause the man cannot rest 'Till he's finally beaten his me

-Chorus- Verse: 'Till the end, he passed out on the sun deck that morning Quietly saying goodbye But I was so hammered I sputtered and stammered Told him he couldn't just die He was a rock, went straight for his own armageddon Face froze in a grin Ambulance flyin' in I never drank again Can't really call that a loss or a win -Chorus-
