break the sailor's table on your sacrum

fuck the fiercest fables, I'm with Hagen

oh the sermons are the first to rest

         Bm                  G          A
smoke on Sundays when you're drunk and dressed

        Bm                 G       A
out the hollows where the swallow nests

         Bm          G
