Capo 2nd fret
Intro:Am (4 bars)
(Verse)
Am Dm Am F G Dm
Your mother made you cry when she told you about the womb
G E Am
And how people die.
Am Dm Am F G
Watching over you when you were young smiling as you learned
Dm G E Am
to crawl. You don’t know her at all.
(Chorus)
Am F C E Am
It’s a dirty job but they’re very suave
F C E Am
Jesus high on wine drinking turpentine
(Verse)
Am Dm Am F G Dm
Daddy’s voice like an intercom connected to a hidden room
G E Am
Were yellow roses bloom
Am Dm Am F
A sacred mountain near Peterborough where clouds paint a
G Dm E Am
picture so calm that they swallowed mom.
(Chorus)
Am F C E Am
It’s a dirty job but they’re very suave
F C E Dm
Jesus high on wine weeping turpentine
Dm Am
What are they doing in there? Have they got guns?
F C Dm
Make you run up and down the same hill
E Am
And they’ll break your will.
(Guitar solo)-repeat verse section 2x
(Verse)
Am Dm Am F
Was it Christmas or groundhog day when your friends turned
G Dm G E Am
to shadows and they dragged you away.
Am Dm Am F G
Tell nobody that you’ve been here don’t breath a word that’s
Dm G E Am
been said. Now there’s a scar(whispered)upon your forehead.
(Chorus)
Am F C E Am
It’s a dirty job but they’re very suave
F C E Dm
Jesus high on wine weeping turpentine
Dm Am
What are they doing in there? Have they got guns?
Dm Am E
Whether Mt. Pinutubo or the threat of God’s love
F C Dm
There’ll always be something that’s raining
E Am
Down from above (4x total)
E Am
Na na na na na na (fade to end)
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official MOXY FRUVOUS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
