[Verse 3]
Em                                    Bm             A
First off Gary was on trial and drunk before we left bed

   Am                                         G         F#
As things got bad, it wasn't hard to say that he had no idea

     Em
Well, I hadn't noticed but the people really noticed

          Bm                     A
That they really didn't want us around

               Am                        G              F#
So we all just opened up our mouths and wallets to this town

      Em
Well, I was walking just a little bit sideways

    Bm                        A
And you were walking sideways too

      Am                      G                                      Em   G Am  G B
Well, I hadn't learned when a front door can be used, here we go sir

Em                                                    Am
We had docked in dark so we didn't read what the sign read
Though simple enough, it was demure and tough:
     G                  B
"The ground needs to be fed"

      Em
Well, I hadn't noticed but the people really noticed

          Bm                     Am
That they really didn't want us around

                               G                        B
So not a single one of us will ever leave town, here we go sir
[Instrumental] Em G Am G B Em G Am G G [Interlude]
    Em                       Bm             Am
Our bodies were laid out evenly for fifteen yards

                                             G
Well, two feet above each of our heads was a fly trapped in a jar

      Em
Well, I hadn't noticed but the people really noticed

          Bm                    Am
That they really didn't want us around

                          G
So every single one of us fed the ground, here we go now
Dm G F C [Bridge]
Em              Bm     Am
One wing wasn't even enough

                G    F#  Dm
One wing wasn't even enough
Dm [Outro]
Dm
All part and parcel
Well it's probably been said
Dm
That it's always been said
We were already dead
