The Golden Egg chords by Quasi

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse:
Dbmaj7        F7
Shoot yourself in the leg
   Gbmaj7        Ebm7
& the goose lays the golden egg
      Gbmaj7 Ebm7
I had that golden egg before
    Ab7 Ab7/Gb   Ab7/Gb     Ebm7
But it disappeared as I limped out the door
Dbmaj7        F7
Never reveal what you know
     Gbmaj7         Ebm7
That the whole thing is just for show:
 Gbmaj7        Ebm7
A cardboard world with painted skies
      Ab7    Ab7/Gb  Ab6/F    Ebm7
Because we all must agree to believe in the lies

Instrumental:
Dbmaj7


Verse:
Dbmaj7           F7
Bring yourself down to your knees
     Gbmaj7       Ebm7
& they'll give you the golden keys
  Gbmaj7     Ebmaj7
The keys will open any lock
   Ab7   Ab7/Gb Ab7/Gb Ebm7
To an empty room or a Chinese box
Dbmaj7       F7
I can forget how I feel
   Gbmaj7         Ebm7
& pretend that it's all for real
  Gbmaj7       Ebm7
The pot won't call the kettle black
  Ab7     Ab7/Gb Ab7/Gb   Ebm7
& I don't even feel the knife in my back

Verse:
  Dbmaj7        F7
And when we go off to our bed
   Gbmaj7       Ebm7
After struggling for our bread
 Gbmaj7       Ebm7
A pleasant dream may stand instead
    Ab7   Ab7/Gb     Ab7/Gb   Ebm7
Of the clamor & noise that goes on in your head
  Dbmaj7     F7
So carry on like before
    Gbmaj7      Ebm7
& don't listen to me any more
Gbmaj7     Ebm7
Don't believe a word I sing
       Ab7  Ab7/Gb  Ab7/Gb    Ebm7
Because it's only a song & it don't mean a thing
