Em
Edna Millon in a drop dead suit
B7
Dutch pink in a downtown train
Two dollar pistol, but the gun won't shoot
Em
I'm in the corner in the pouring rain
16 men on a deadman's chest
B7
And I've been drinking from a broken cup
Two pair of pants and a mohair vest
Em
I'm full of burbon; I can't stand up
CHORUS CHORDS:
Am Em B7

Am Em
Hey little bird, fly away home
B7 Em
Your house is on fire; your children are alone
Am Em
Hey little bird, fly away home
B7 Em
Your house is on fire; your children are alone
The SOLO and Ribot's licks over the verses are all playing off of the INTRO RIFF. With
it is all about tone. Move the riff up the fretboard to try to get some of the licks.
