crash test dummies

a difficult song to sing in tune as the singer has a very strange tone to his 
voice that makes it song lower than it actually is

 D                   Bm
After seven days, he was               
G             D    A
Quite tired, so God  said               
D              Bm
Let there be a day just for             
G               Bm       G
Picnics, with wine and bread
A              D             G           
Gathered up some people he had made
Em         A            D               G
Created blankets and laid back in the shade 
  
[Chorus]
                                                                
A                E                  A
God shuffled his feet and glanced a round at them
D      A                    E                     A         D     G
The people cleared their throats and stared right back at him


 D                   Bm
The people sipped their wine, and what with
G             D    A
God there, they asked him ques tions, like
D              Bm
Do you have to eat, or get your 
G               Bm       G
hair cut in  heaven
A              D             G
And if your eye got poked out in this life,
Em            A              D               G
would it be waiting up in heaven with your wife   

[Chorus]

 D                   Bm
So he said once there was a boy, who       
G             D    A
woke up with  blue hair.  
D              Bm
him it was a joy, until he
G               Bm       G
ran out into the warm air      
A              D             G
He thought of how his friends would come to see
Em              A               D                 G
and would they laugh or had he got some strange disease   

[Chorus]

 D                   Bm
The people sat waiting out on their
G             D    A
To blankets in the garden.  But
D              Bm
God said nothing.  So someone
G               Bm       G
asked him, beg your pardon
A                    D                    G
I'm not quite clear a bout what you just spoke
Em          A            D            G
Was that a parable or a very subtle joke


[Chorus]
