VERSE 1 Em G6 How can I fly with these old dogged wings C7 A7 While the magpie sings some shiny song. Old corn-face row of teeth she says sweetly to me In the elevator Em D C A7 C Everything seems like a dream, Life's a scream VERSE 2: Here come old kerosene hat with his earflaps waxed A 'courting his girl Come clattering in here on your old cloven skates With the devilish spoon Everything seems like a dream, and life's a scream, when you're submarine. [ Instrumental Bridge: 2x phrase 1, 1x phrase 2 Mixed up with a combination of strumming, picking, & a few bends ] --crookedpath
