Intro: C majorC


 C majorC
I saw you at the railway station
A minorAm
there had been a cancelation
FF                 G+G
you were smoking cigarettes alone
 C majorC              A minorAm
I walked up and said hello, I lost my wife two days ago
  FF           G+G        C majorC
You shook my hand and said Francis was your name

       FF   G+G
And you had a hat
      C majorC   A minorAm
And I had a hat
FF        G+G
Mmm, we both had hats
        FF    G+G
And my wife was dead
         A minorAm    D MajorD
And your wife was dead
FF   G+G        C majorC
 Shit happens, Francis said


C majorC
Francis said it's five o'clock
A minorAm              FF              G+G
How about we find a rock and throw at some cars from the bridge
 C majorC
I laughed and said that sounds like fun
  A minorAm
We walked into the setting sun
  FF         G+G       C majorC
And Francis said "I'm aiming at the kids"

        FF  G+G
And he threw a rock
       C majorC  A minorAm
So I threw a rock
  FF             G+G
We both put some gravel in a sock
         FF  G+G         A minorAm   D MajorD
And he threw the sock, I said we should stop
  FF         G+G         C majorC
He smiled at me, then threw a rock in a sock


  C majorC
We snuck down to the local farm
  A minorAm
And there we opened up the barn
  FF                 G+G
To set the horses free and watch them run
  C majorC
The moon was extra bright that night
  A minorAm
The horses in the pale moonlight
 FF          G+G          C majorC
"Watch this" Francis said, and pulled his gun


       FF   G+G
And he shot a horse
      C majorC   A minorAm
So I shot a horse
FF                 G+G
Francis choked a chicken with his hands
         FF G+G        A minorAm  D MajorD
But watching them die, he started to cry
   FF       G+G          C majorC
"I'm bored" Francis said, let's steal a car


  G+G
Oh, Margaret, Oh Margaret
     FF       C majorC
Don't you worry bout' me now
  A minorAm     FF     C majorC
I'm doing just fine on my own
     G+G                FF         C majorC
There are other things to life than your soft skin against mine
  A minorAm     FF        C majorC
And Francis is helping me move on
  G+G   C majorC
I'm moving on


C majorC
Life's a bitch, a wise man said
  A minorAm
No matter what, you end up dead
  FF               G+G
And all that you can wish for is a friend
  C majorC
So pour another glass of wine
   A minorAm
With Francis shoulder touching mine
   FF         G+G       C majorC
I 'll stay right here until the bitter end


        FF  G+G
And you have a hat
       C majorC   A minorAm
And I have a hat
FF         G+G
Mmm, we both have hats
         FF   G+G
And your wife is dead
        A minorAm  D MajorD
And my wife is dead
FF     G+G       A minorAm
Here's to life, Francis said
FF     G+G       A minorAm
Here's to life, Francis said
FF     G+G       C majorC
Here's to life, Francis said
