Am G She's a box car rollin' by Am G Like a black star in the sky Am G She's a failure once or twice Am G Like a trailer spinnin' out upon dizzy ice Am G Flowers fly when we grow old Am G Snakes get high, or so I'm told Am G She's an eagle out on the road Am G Like my favorite Beatle everyone bought and sold Chorus: F C All of my love and half my kisses F C Superstar don't do the dishes A# Dm G I just want the great apes to be free F C Come on now, you lazy cowboy F C Heads or tails, but not right now, boy A# Dm G I just want the great apes to be free She's a rain bird on the prowl Like an urge to be yourself that you won't allow She's a forest that we burned Just a blueprint for a life that we had never learned Flowers fly when we grow old Snakes get high, or so I'm told She's a lynch mob on the street Take another step and I will kill the beat Chorus Am G She's a bus stop, glockenspiel Am G She's a simulation life that you thought was real Am G She's an image that we blurred Am G It's a pixelated panther, now let it purr Chorus I just want the great apes to be free I just want the great apes to be free | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsAm  A#  C  Dm  F  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
