[Verse 1]
[Am]Gold teeth and a [C]curse for this [F]town
Were [C]all in my [G]mouth
Only [C]I don't know h[F]ow they got o[Am]ut, d[G]ear
[Am]Turn me back [C]into the [F]pet
I [C]was when we [G]met
I was [C]happier [F]then with no [Am]minds[G]et

[Chorus 1]
And if you [G]took to [C]me like [F]a
Gull [C]takes to the [G]wind
Well, I'd've jumped from [C]my trees
And [F]I'd've [C]danced
like the [F]king of the [C]eyesores
And the [F]rest of our [C]lives would've [G]fared well

[Verse 2]
[Am]New slang when you n[C]otice the [F]stripes
The [C]dirt in your [G]fries
Hope it's [C]right when you [F]die, old and [Am]bon [G]y
[Am]Dawn breaks like a [C]bull through the [F]hall
nev[C]er should have [G]called
But my [C]head's to the [F]wall and I'm [Am]lone[G]ly

[Chorus 2]
And if you [G]took to [C]me like [F]a
Gull [C]takes to the [G]wind
Well, I'd've jumped from [C]my trees
And [F]I'd've [C]danced
like the [F]king of the [C]eyesores
And the [F]rest of our [C]lives would've [G]fared well

[Verse 3]
[Am]Godspeed, all the [C]bakers at [F]dawn
May they [C]all cut their [G]thumbs
And bleed [C]into their [F]buns 'til they [Am]melt a[G]way

[Chorus 3]
I'm looking [G]in on the [C]good life
I might [F]be doomed [C]never to [G]find
Without a trust, a flam[C]ing field
Am [F]I too d[C]umb to ref[G]ine?
And if you [G]took to [C]me like
[F]Well, I'd've [C]danced
like the [F]queen of the [C]eyesores
And the [F]rest of our [C]lives would've [G]fared well
