Strumming
Tuning:
The main chord progression is C C* G G7 Am Am F F (keep in mind that these are 8ths, not 4ths) For C*, put a pinky on the third fret of the first string, like when you play a G chord. I recommend playing the G like a G7 with your pinky on the first string, so you only have to shift your fingers up from the C* and it's easy to switch to G7. During the verses, you don't have to play the C* and G7, so it's just C G Am F. Note that every 4th line, the progression is C G Am Am. --- C C* G G7 Am Am F F x2
CI eat cigarettes for Gbreakfast, Am and coffee for Flunch. CFor dinner I lay in the Gdirt and wait for the Amend times to Fcome. CI wish I could tell you the Gtruth, but when I Amdo it comes out sounding Fstupid. CBut meet me at four in the Gmorning, and see for Amyourself. Am CSunrise, Gsunset, that's Amall I really gotta Fknow. C The rest is a Gprison Amthat I build for myFself. COn my worst nights, I'd still Gburn down the city Amjust for a peaceful night's Frest. C G Am Am (muted strumming) But here in your arms, my darling, I think that can wait, or I hope it can.

CWe murdered a chicken for Gbreakfast, Am and ate it for Flunch. She was Cbeautiful, she was Gscrappy, she was Am as mean as they Fcome. And I Ctold her on the way to the Gchopping block: Am"Chaos reigns over us Fall. One Cday I'll be worm food, but GJenny, first it's your Amturn." Am There's Csunrise, and Gsunset, and Amthen there's the day that I Fdie. C All the rest is a Gprison, Am or else it's a Flie. At my Cworst times, I'd still Gmurder a traffic Amcop to get out of a Fticket.
