Standard (EADGBE)

 I'm gonna drink more whiskey than Brendan Behan

 I'm gonna send my belongings all to Tripoli

 And I'm gonna ride home to California

 With a banjo on my knee

 I'm never gonna turn off the television

 I'm just gonna let it run all night

 I'm gonna plant root vegetables out in the back yard

 And come summer, I am going to treat you right

 So put on your Chairman Mao coat

 And let me clear my throat

 Let's turn this whole town upside down

 Shake it 'til the coins come falling out of its pocket

 Yeah, put on your Che Guevara pin

 Call the troops on in

 We're gonna sail through the night sky

 Like a pair of bottle rockets

 I got a great big secret written down somewhere

 I got a rosary to protect us both from harm

 I got a storage locker full of cow figurines

 And a laundry list of grievances longer than my arm

 And I am never going back to Cincinatti

 All those bridges have been burned down to the ground

 I got the jetpack strapped to my back

 And I'm waiting for you to come around

 Yeah, put on your Chairman Mao coat

 And let me clear my throat

 Let's turn this whole place upside down, yes

 Shake it 'til the coins come falling out of its pockets

 Yeah, put on your Che Guevara pin

 Call the troops on in

 We're gonna sail through the night sky

 Like a pair of bottle rockets
