Verse:
A augmentedA
It's a quixotic quest on a hot summer's night
A augmentedA
I got a fistful of fireworks
A augmentedA
I'm gonna try and set things right
D MajorD
I lost my inhibitions
D MajorD                 A augmentedA
I think I may have lost my wallet too
E MajorE
In this dying land of plenty
E MajorE                 A augmentedA
There's a whole lot of nothing to do

Verse:
A augmentedA
Oh, I'm Billy Pilgrim you're a Dresden doll

They carpet bomb the city
A augmentedA
Thank God they spared the mall
D MajorD
Let's hold a vigil
D MajorD             A augmentedA
For the kinda, sorta innocent
E MajorE
I guess I should defend your virtue
E MajorE                  A augmentedA
But the truth is I'm still on the fence

Verse:
A augmentedA
And old Heinrich Himmler, he never broke the law

Well, technically speaking ask Sam Peckinpah
D MajorD
Sometimes you need a vigilante
D MajorD                 A augmentedA
if you want to get a just thing done
E MajorE
And I don't want to kill nobody
E MajorE                  A augmentedA
whose only crime is worshiping the sun

Chorus:
D MajorD         A augmentedA
Breakfast of napalm
D MajorD        F# minorF#m    E MajorE    D MajorD
Burn down the place where I belong
D MajorD         A augmentedA
Arch rivals make love
E MajorE
And they gotta keep it secret
E MajorE              DmDm   A augmentedA
They still do it with the lights on

Verse:
A augmentedA
And I got bad nostalgia for what came before
A augmentedA
Sad reenactments of our civil war
D MajorD
My heartache is obsessive
D MajorD                A augmentedA
I just wish that I could let it go
E MajorE
But there's a mountain down in Georgia
E MajorE                A augmentedA
With a kickass laser light show

Verse:
A augmentedA
And I can always convince you, you're just like Patty Hearst
A augmentedA
Or you're a sympathetic baby when I'm at my worst
D MajorD
I don't want to brainwash you
D MajorD                    A augmentedA
I just wish that you would change your tune
E MajorE
'Cause I've been gunning for redemption
E MajorE                  A augmentedA
And I think I'll hit the bullseye soon

Chorus:
D MajorD           A augmentedA
Chartreuse and menthols
D MajorD       F# minorF#m   E MajorE     D MajorD
Burn down the town that we were from
D MajorD         A augmentedA
I lost my true love
E MajorE
to a three-alarm fire
E MajorE               DmDm           A augmentedA
They tried to put out with a squirt gun. Odelay, homes.

Solo:
A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA

Verse:
A augmentedA
Sing little child like a Nightingale
A augmentedA                       D MajorD
Sing little child, send me anthrax through the mail
D MajorD                       A augmentedA
I wanna to know you, I wanna know if you are true
E MajorE
Because the closer I get to you
E MajorE                 A augmentedA
is the further that I feel from you

Chorus:
D MajorD        A augmentedA
Breakfast of napalm
D MajorD       F# minorF#m    E MajorE    D MajorD
Burn down the place where we belong
D MajorD         A augmentedA
Arch rivals make love
E MajorE
And they gotta keep it secret

They gotta keep it secret
E MajorE
They gotta keep it secret
