A E In the corner of the morning in the past A E I would sit and blame the master first and last G A All the roads were straight and narrow G A And the prayers were small and yellow G G# E and the rumour spread that I was aging fast A C#m F#m D Then I ran across a monster who was sleeping by a tree F F# A G E And I looked and frowned and the monster was me Well I said hello and I said hello And I asked why not and I replied I don't know So we asked a simple blackbird who was happy as can be And he laughed insane and quipped Kahil Gibran So I cried for all the others till the day was nearly through For I realised that Gods a young man too So I said so long and I waved bye bye And I smashed my soul and traded my mind Got layed by a young bordello I was vaguely half asleep For which my reputation swept back home in drag And the moral of this magic spell negotiate my hide When God did take my logic for a ride riding a long D C G He swallowed his pride and puckered his lips D C G And showed me the leather belt round his hips D C my knees were shaking my cheeks aflame G D He said you'll never go down to the Gods again C G Turn around go back G He struck the ground a cavern appeared A And I smelt the burning pit of fear G We crashed a thousand yards below D I said do it again do it again C G Turn around go back D C G His nebulous body swayed above D C G His tongue swollen with devils love D C The snake and I a venom high G D I said do it again do it again C G Turn around go back G Breathe breathe breathe deeply A And I was seething breathing deeply G A spitting sentry horned and tailed D C G Waiting for you | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA  C  C#m  D  E  F  F#  F#m  G  G#  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
