John Prine – Lonesome Friends Of Science (Guitar)

C
The lonesome friends of science say

F
The world will end most any day

C
Well, if it does, then that's okay

G
Cuz I don't live here anyway

C
I live down deep inside my head

F
Where long ago I made my bed

C
I get my mail in Tennessee

G
My wife, my dog, and my family

      C
Uh-huh

C
Poor old planet Pluto now

F
He never stood a chance no how

C
When he got uninvited to

G
The interplanetary dance

C
Once a mighty planet there

F
Now just an ordinary star

C
Hanging out in Hollywood

G
In some ol' funky sushi bar

C
The lonesome friends of science say

F
The world will end most any day

C
Well, if it does, then that's okay

G
Cuz I don't live here anyway

C
I live down deep inside my head

F
Where long ago I made my bed

C
I get my mail in Tennessee

G
My wife, my dog, and my kids, and me

      C
Uh-huh

    C
The Vulcan lives in Birmingham

F
Sometimes he just don't give a damn

C
His head is full of bumblebees

G
His pride hangs down below his knees

C
Venus left him long ago

F
For a guy named Mars from Idaho

C
The Vulcan sent a wedding gift:

G
Three-legged stool and a wheelchair lift

   C
Uh-huh

C
The lonesome friends of science say

The world will end most any day

C
Those bastards in their white lab coats

F
Who experiment with mountain goats

C
Should leave the universe alone

G
It's not their business, not their home

C
I go to sleep, and it never rains

F
My dog predicts hurricanes

C
She can smell a storm a mile away

G
That's all the news we have today

C
Uh-huh
