Intro
CThe ragaFmuffin gunner is returnCin' home like a huCngry runaway Em7
He wFalks through town all alCone
He must be from the fort Che hears the high school girls Emsay
His Ccountryside's burnin' with wolfG/Fman fairies dressed in dDmrag for homicEmide
The hFit and run, plead sanCctuary, `neath a hColy stone they hiEmde
They're Fbreakin' beams and crosCses with a sCpastic's reelin' perfeEmction
FNuns run bald through CVatican halls pregnant, pCleadin' immaculate
conceptioEmn
And Ceverybody's wrecG/Fked on Main Street from driDmnking unholy blood Em
FSticker smiles sweet as gCunner breathes deep, his aFnkles caEmked in mDmud
And I said &Fquot;Hey gunCner man thaDmt's quicksand, thFat's quicksCand that ain't
Dmmud
Have you throwFn your senCses toDm the war or did you lFose them in tChe flood?" ...
.... Dm Dm C
Additional Lyrics:
FThat pure AmeriCcan brother, dull-eCyed and empty-facEmed
Races SFundays in JerCsey in a CheCvy stock super eighEmt
He riCdes `er low on the hip, on the sG/Fide he's got Bound For Glory in rDmed,
White and blue flash paiEmnt
He leaFns on the hood telling racCing stories, the kiFds call him JimEmmy The
SainDmt
Well the Dmblaze and noise boy, he's gCunnin' that Dmbitch loaded to blastin'
poinDmt
He rides head first into a Churricane and disDmappears into a poinDmt
And there's Cnothin' left but some blood where the bG/Fody fell
That is, Dmnothin' left that you could Emsell
FJust junk all acrossC the horizon, a Freal higEmhwayman's Dmfarewell
And he said &Fquot;Hey kid, Cyou think thDmat's oil? FMan, that aCin't oil that's
Dmblood"
I Fwonder what he was tChinking when he Dmhit that storm
Or wFas he just lCost in the Dmflood?
Dm C C Dm Dm
Eighth FAvenue sailors in Csatin shirts Ewhisper in the airEm
Some Fstorefront incarCnation of Maria, she's pCuttin' on me the Emstare
And CBronx's best aG/Fpostle stands with his Dmhand on his own hardEm ware
FEverything stops, you hear Cfive, quick shots, the Fcops come Emup for aDmir
And now the Dmwhiz-bang gang from Cuptown, they're sDmhootin' up the Dmstreet
And that cat from the Bronx starts Clettin' loose
but he gets Dmblown right off his Dmfeet
And some Ckid comes blastin' round the G/Fcorner but a Dmcop puts him right Emaway
He lFays on the street holding his leg screaming Csomething in Spanish
Still Fbreathing when EmI walked aDmway
And somebody said &Fquot;HeyC man did youDm see that?
His body hit the Fstreet with such a Cbeautiful Dmthud"
I Fwonder what the Cdude was sayinDm' or Fwas he just Clost in the Dmflood?
FHey man, Cdid you see Dmthat, those Fpoor cats are Csure messed Dmup
I Fwonder what Cthey were gettin' Dminto, or Fwere they just Clost in the Dmflood?
Dm C C Dm Dm Dm Dm C
