Chords

Based of the Live on KEXP @Pickathon version, but I believe the chords should be the same for other versions, just vary the capo placement. See/Listen to the video for picking/strumming pattern. [Intro] C Am C Am C G [Verse 1]
N.C.   Am    Em  D
Please marry me, Mona Lee

Am         Em             D
I need someplace to hide

       Am            Em       Am
If you can't bind my hands in wedding bands

                               C
Then I'll daisy chain my life away, my Lord

            Am                 C

Oh, scarlet, white, and blue

Am              Em         C
My brothers and me will hang from our family tree

Am                                  C
As the boys who fought and died for you, my Lord

Am                               C
The boys who fought and died for you, my Lord

Am                           C
Just like screaming into the storm, my Lord

Just like screaming into the storm

You know I miss my family

Am                Em
One bullet strayed

        Am
And my soul flew away

                          C
And it sank right to the ocean floor, my Lord

     Am                     C
Well, it sank right to the ocean floor, my Lord

 Am                        C
I'll daisy chain my life no more, my Lord

 C                       G
I'll daisy chain my life no more
