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:

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
