 Capo 5th fret
 
 A             D                A     
 Held a bird's egg between her breasts
                 D              A    
 There's reasons for the road I guess
        D              A   
 To document the indigenous
              D                       
 To paint and sketch, paint and sketch
     A           E       D    A      
 I'm starting to fail to be impressed
 
 A      D            A   
 United state of ricochet
               D                  A  
 From the boardwalk to the Appian way
             D                    A    
 The diamond files, the corporate raves
                   D                    
 You'd practically kill not to be afraid
         A           E            D        A  
 And I'm starting to choke on the things I say
 
             E                                   A   
 I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down
             E                                   D   
 I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down
             E                                   D       A 
 I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down, down
 
 A          D                        A    
 Browbeaten out from underneath your dress
         D            A   
 The documented indigenous
       D                  A   
 Civilization flipped its desk
              D                     
 You know the rest, there is no rest
         A           E       D           A   
 And I'm starting to fail to know what's best
 
             E                                   A   
 I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down
             E                                   D   
 I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down
             E                                   D       A 
 I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down, down
