G                             Am   Am/E
Winter came, flyin on a black hawk
       C             C/G            Am                Am/E
It was early for Chicago, Ice froze up the whole damn block
            G                                Am   Am/E
And we sent money to a friend to rinse their tub
           C                  C/G             Am
Those that won't fit down the drain, they can bury in the mud
                A B C E    D7
Get ready boys
look pretty

G                                  C  B  Am
Glowing palms illuminate the faces of us sheep
       C              C/G       Am
Entire bushels of bad news, disappointment never sleeps
       G                                 Am             Am/E
As the Pay Pal princes spread themselves way across the sky
       C            C/G              Am
And an interstellar object waves and laughs and passes by
                A B C E    D7
Get ready boys
look pretty
                     G
We're going into the city


Harmonica:
G  Am  C   G
