Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][D]

[Verse 1]
[C]Empty bottle was half empty,
tide was low, and I was [D]thirsty
[G]I s[F]aw her sitting at the bar,
well you know how some girls are
[C]Always making eyes,
well she [G]wasn't making eyes
[F]

[Verse 2]
So [C]I sidled up beside her,
settled down and shouted, "Hi there"
My name's [F]Stewart Ransom Miller,
I'm a serial lady-killer"
She She said, [C]"I'm already dead,"
that's ex[G]actly what [F]she said

[Verse 3]
So [C]we tripped the lights fantastic,
we was both made of elastic
[F]Midnight came and midnight went
and I though I was the President
She [C]said, "Do you have a car?" and I said,
[G]"Do I have a car[F]?"

[Verse 4]
What's so [G]great about
the Barrier [C]Reef?
What's so [G]fine about [C]art?
What's so [F]good about
a Good [C]Times Van
When you're [G]working on a broken,
working on a broken
[F]Working on a broken [C]man
When you're [G]working on a broken,
working on a broken
[F]Working on a broken [C]man,

[Interlude 1]
yeah
[C][G][C][G][C]
[F][C][G][F]
[C]

[Verse 5]
My heart wasn't [C]in it,
not for one single [Dm]minute
[F]Oh then I went through
the motions with her
Her on top, and me on liquor, [C]didn't do no good,
well I [G]didn't think it would
[F]

[Verse 6]
What's [D]so [G]great about
the Barrier [C]Reef?
What's so [G]fine about [C]art?
What's so [F]good about
a Good [C]Times Van
When you're [G]working on a broken,
working on a broken
[F]Working on a broken [C]man?
When you're [G]working on a broken,
working on a broken
[F]Working on a broken [C]man?
When you're [G]working on a broken,
working on a broken
[F]Working on a broken man?
