Pavement – Billie (Guitar)

F#
La, la, la, la, la, la,

                      A#m
La, la, la, la, la, la, la

D#m                     B
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

G#                  
La, la, la, la, la, la        (Intro x2)

F#
Billie and my friend the saint

                            A#m
You're perfect in so many ways

D#m                            B
But you never looked hard at a fetus in a jar

G#
You never saw your mama change

F#
And this wonderland of spite

                           A#m
Does not shine into your night

D#m                       B
Like widows are seen as stigmatized beings

    G#             C#
Who ought to have a second chance

 A#m                     D#m              B
And hurricanes spin like debutantes in a trance

B
Sue the fortune-teller

B
Rue the rising tide

             E
General Washington

 D             B                   F#
Patented that skull, throw him out

F#
Ship that hollandaise

                        A#m
Feel the heart fell of touche

D#m                        B
See the longer you tease, the stronger the needs

G#
The highs and the fruit are long

F#
Up to the one a kid

                           A#m
Call the bluff when the money's in

D#m              B          G#      C#
You're a hungry matron and you are just what I need

A#m                D#m              B
I was tired of the best years of my life

B
Sue the fortune-teller

B
Rue the rising tide

            E
General Washington

D              B                  F#
Patented that skull, throw him out
