[Verse 1]
[E]She played for the [Em]angels
[E]I played for the t[Em]ribe
The [E]summer had been stolen
and the bases were [Em]all loaded
There was [E]big my arm a [Em]line
[E]Big my all the time, [Em]yeah
There was [E]big my arm a [Em]line

[Chorus 1]
[G]I can't walk
so I [D]guess I'm gonna stay at [Em]home
They can [D]have my legs
just [C]leave my head a[Em]lone

[Verse 2]
[E]I was in the k[Em]itchen
The [E]year was in the [Em]fall
A [E]friend of mine had told me
that there where no point [Em]in mopin'
No there [E]were no point at [Em]all
There was [E]big fire in the hall, [Em]yeah
There [E]weren't no points at [Em]all

[Chorus 2]
And [G]I can't walk
so I [D]guess I'm gonna stay at [Em]home
They can [D]have my legs
just [C]leave my head a[Em]lone
And [G]I can't talk
so I [D]guess I got nothin' to [Em]say
I'll [D]keep my eyes
just [C]take these tears a[Em]way

[Verse 3]
[E]Lock stuck in barrel
all the dogs were gone [Em]in farrel
and the [E]car ran like a broken [Em]perculator
His [E]liver had gone hard
and he wouldn't mow [Em]the yard
There was [E]big my arm a [Em]line

[Bridge 1]
And I [C]heard that his [D]brother was a [Em]viking
He [G]liked to solve a [D]problem with a [Em]gun
If you [C]want to know the [D]facts
you gotta [Em]teach him how to act
And I [G]hate cough [D]syrup don't [Em]you
I'd [C]rather be a [D]sailor than a [Em]fighter
I'd [G]like to sail a [D]ship into the [Em]sun
If you [C]want to know the [D]truth
you gotta [Em]dig up Johnny Boon
And I [G]hate cough [D]syrup don't [Em]you
I [C]know that your [D]mother is a [Em]farter
I [G]heard she's got con[D]nections with the [Em]mob
If you [C]want to learn the [D]fight
you gotta [Em]drink up all the light
And I [G]hate cough [D]syrup don't [Em]you
I'd [C]rather be a [D]matchstick than a [Em]lighter
I'd [G]like to see the [D]wood curl up and [Em]burn
If you [C]want to touch the [D]sky
you must [Em]be prepared to die
And I [G]hate cough [D]syrup don't [Em]you
I [C]hate cough [D]syrup
and I [Em]hate the food in Europe
And I [G]hate cough [D]syrup it's [Em]true
You [C]wanna know the [D]truth
you gotta [Em]dig up Johnny Boof
And I [G]hate cough [D]syrup don't [Em]you
I [C]hate cough [D]syrup it's [Em]true
