Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][D][G][A][D]
[G][F#][G][A]

[Verse 1]
When [G]you're
riding the [Bm]rails with those [F#]wide [F#m]open eyes
[G]Well, [A]there's [D]one old south
[A]paw you wil[G]l always fight
And alone on a [Bm]worn- out throne
Is [F#]the reigning queen of the quest[G]ion
Why [D]we blind- [A]footed toddlers
ever [G]started out
[G]

[Verse 2]
So don't get into it with [D]me
If I [A]goose- [Am]step
Across the [G]kitchen floor
You know I still adore
All your [Bm]mother's old- fashioned ways
[A]I'm so impressed tha[D]t you hear
My [A]inven[Am]tions, and [A]that it [G]matters more
Than what you saw with
your [F]eye[F#]s
[G]

[Verse 3]
Go along with the [Bm]plan
Your head [F#]will still be [F#m]there
where you [G]put it
Under [D]the bed with [A]the ice cream
you could [G]never find
And tonight you go to [Bm]bed and dream
[F#]All the world to be what you w[G]ant it
You got the [F#]girly [F#m]draw
now [F#]flaunt [G]it
[D]And keep them all checking
their [A]watches
When you're [G]out tonight

[Verse 4]
[G]So don't get into it with [D]me
When [A]I goose- s[Am]tep
across the [G]kitchen floor
You know I still adore
All your [Bm]mother's old-
fash[A]ioned ways
I'm so impressed that
[D]you [A]hear
My invention[Am]s,
and that it [G]matters more
Than what you saw with your [F]eyes, [G]oh
