Katie Cruel chords by The Felice Brothers

Verse:

  D                 A
I flew around the world
F#m                      D
All the way from East Kentucky
Bm             A
In a split pea shell

      D                 A
I was chewing on a soda cracker
        F#m                       D
She was chewing on some chewing tobacco
Bm             A
In a split pea shell

Chorus:

    D                   F#
The moon's on fire, the bird's in a cage
    G                        A
The dog's all bark yeah, the band don't play
D      A          Bm    A      G
Heaven knows this cruel little girl
D      A     D
Katie, Katie Cruel

Verse:

D                 A
I've been feeling fine
F#m              D
Ever since my execution
Bm                A
Living in my own abyss

 D                    A
Away from the miracle weapon
F#m               D
Away from the revolution
Bm                     A
Waiting on a phantom's kiss

Chorus:

    D                   F#
The moon's on fire, the bird's in a cage
    G                        A
The dog's all bark yeah, the band don't play
    D                   F#
The yard's on fire, the inmates scream
    G                     A
I'm leaving today up this split pea street
D      A          Bm    A      G
Heaven knows this cruel little girl
D      A     D
Katie, Katie Cruel

Chorus:

    D                   F#
The moon's on fire, the wind's in the grave
    G                   A
The clocks are ticking, jump in place
    D                    F#
The bells are ringing, a doll thinks back
    G                 A
The puppies roar, the planet's trashed
D      A          Bm    A      G
Heaven knows this cruel little girl
D      A          F#
Heaven knows it's cruel

Katie is a a cruel little girl
