[Intro]
G
[Verse]
G C G There's a fish in my stomach a thousand years old G Em C D Can't swim a full circle, the water's too cold Em C G F#/G Em Burnt out cars in my fingers, conveyor belts flow, C Am C D G right angles and steam whistles, nothing can grow
[Verse]
G C G A big-antlered deer stepping into the road, G Em C D A beautiful woman with her head in the stove Em C G F#/G Em The skyscrapers crumble heavy with rats C Am C D G The wind's full of beer cans and whiffle ball bats
[Chorus]
D C G The endless sea of traffic lights never make a sound D C G Like Ben Franklin's electric kite crashing to the ground C Am C D G and the Winnebago skeletons beneath this bankrupt town
[Solo]
G C G Em C G F#/G Em C Am C D G
[Verse]
G C G This fish in my stomach wears a full length mink, G Em C D But his teeth float in sherry in a jar by the sink Em C G F#/G Em He's the withered remains of Rin Tin Tin C Am C D G Taking his new Cadillac out for a spin
[Chorus]
D C G The endless sea of traffic lights never make a sound D C G Like Ben Franklin's electric kite crashing to the ground C Am C D G and the Winnebago skeletons beneath this bankrupt town
[Coda]
C Am C D G
