VERSE 1:
G+G
I can still see you there
     C majorC         G+G  G/F#
In your grass-stained underwear
 E minorEm       G+G
Dancing crooked circles
 A minorAm          C majorC    D MajorD
Across the golf course green

G+G
It must have been 3 a.m.
    C majorC            G+G  G/F#
When we hopped that chain link fence
E minorEm         G+G
And ran across the grass
        D MajorD Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD
In the pouring rain

G+G
Oh and you kept falling down
   C majorC        G+G  G/F#
and rolling on the ground
    E minorEm       G+G
like a drunken little bird
A minorAm       C majorC  D MajorD   G+G [G+G A augmentedA BB] - single notes on 6th and 5th strings as in the intro
flapping its broken wings

CHORUS:
C majorC        G+G       B minorBm      C majorC
Flapping your broken wings, flapping your broken wings
C majorC       E minorEm   C majorC      Dsus4Dsus4  D MajorD   G+G  G/F#
flapping your broken wings in the green, green grass

BRIDGE:
    E minorEm
As if pilgrims with axes
      C majorC
had never seen the devil dancing
C#/A7 [X4202X]
in the silent branches
   C majorC
of thousand year old trees
     E minorEm
As they sailed up the wild coast
 C majorC
leaning from their wooden boats
C#/A7
shooting every pretty bird
   C majorC
that rose up from the weeds

[G+G F#F#] E minorEm C majorC C#/A7 C majorC G+G

VERSE 2:
     G+G
When the sun began to rise
     C majorC       G+G  G/F#
I could see it in your eyes
   E minorEm      G+G
and shining on the golf balls
A minorAm       C majorC  D MajorD
lying in the grass

    G+G
And a rusted chain link fence
  C majorC       G+G  G/F#
a golf cart in a ditch
     E minorEm
and the colored flags
   G+G          D MajorD   Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD
you pulled from all the holes

   G+G
Like jewels on your green dress
  C majorC      G+G     G/F#
my lady of the golf course
E minorEm        G+G
running in your underwear
   A minorAm          C majorC  D MajorD   G+G [G+G A augmentedA BB]
to greet the cops who'd driven up

CHORUS:
C majorC        G+G       B minorBm      C majorC
Flapping your broken wings, flapping your broken wings
C majorC       E minorEm   C majorC      Dsus4Dsus4  D MajorD   G+G  [G+G A augmentedA BB]
flapping your broken wings in the green, green grass

C majorC        G+G       B minorBm      C majorC
Flapping your broken wings, flapping your broken wings
C majorC       E minorEm   C majorC      Dsus4Dsus4  D MajorD   G+G
flapping your broken wings in the green, green grass
