Public Execution Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro chords

C / F / G / F x2

 Some thiCngs are best not Fspoken

 Some Gthings are better left unFsaid

 But Csince this is Fyour public exeGcution

 I tFhink I’ll go right on aGhead

Riff

 The Cmailman brought your Fletter, babe

 Where you Gtold me how you Ffeel

 And the Cthings he said he Ftold you

 That Gis I’m such a Fheel

CI could never be Fhonest

 And to Gyou I’ve always Flied

 They Csaw me take some Fother hide

 For a Ftwo-wheeled pony Gride----

Chorus

FYou at least might have Gasked me

 If the sFcene was really what it sGeemed

 But like a Cqueen ruled Fby her jGester

 Your Fconclusion was a Gscheme

You said I disappointed you

Whereby all the things I done

That you had convinced yourself

I was the only one

Really make you happy

Satisfy your soul

Now you say I’ve failed

Since we split up all my gold---

Riff

Chorus

Have you ever seen the truth before

Have you ever even made a try

Such I thing for you so impossible

With them themes all in your eyes

Whoa, I laughed when you said you had

One chance to really put me down

And how you loved to smear my name

All over my own town

Said some Mouse made a fool of you

And said don’t waste a dime

Your phone is out of order now, babe,

For me you got no time----

Riff

Chorus

If this is really what your thinkin’

That it’s really, really all my fault

Then you better find yourself a welder, baby

 Cause you got locked up in your Gvault--- G♯

[All chords modulate up ½ step]

Yeah, you got your point put over now

It seems you’ve found a match

Burn the bridge behind you, babe

Slam your door, throw the latch

I know just how your hurtin’

From your feelings as they burn

I’d like to say I’m sorry

But it’s no longer my concern---

[Riff up ½ step from riff fig.]

So goodbye

Go on and have a real good cry

I've found me a brand new high

She just loves a two-wheel pony ride

You better get yourself a welder, babe

Go on, get out of here...
