Well they blew up the chicken man

Now there's trouble busin' in
           C
from outta state,
        D                    G
and the D.A. can't get no relief
      G
Gonna be a rumble
           C
out on the promenade and the
         D
gamblin' commission's hangin'
                      G

Well now everything dies, baby that's a fact,

Well I got a job and tried to
C
put my money away,
    D                                  G
but I got debts that no honest man can pay
     G
So I drew what I had,
C
from the Central Trust,
    D                             G
and bought us two tickets on that City Coast bus

Well now everything dies, baby that's a fact,
          D                     G
but maybe everything that dies, someday comes back
         C                   G
Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty
    D                           G
