-illegal name in watercolor  On a piss stained Frisco truck
    E                             Dbm Abm
Hoping some camera'd catch your face
      E
And the rain came down
                  A
And the fat worms showed up like seared shut
  E 
Half clotted blood vein sections
A
Fast fossil dried up
E                             A
You've got no God hand in the when of a raindrop
        E                               Dbm Abm
And the paint the you use was waterbased
E
The sound of light rain and burning leaves is the same
E
The hound in night's brain learning dreams is untamed

E A E D

             E                       A
There'll be a time for drying up and dying on sidewalks
E                         D                      A
Years for beards in the bushes in someone's backyard
A
Dead dog in the shade
A
Like an empty old seed pod

A
 Did you stay up all night?
            F#m     Dbm       D            E  
Sprawled out over a xerox enlargement of my placecard
F#m             Dbm         D                E
Weeping backstage  With the pretty plus ones ignoring you

B            E
Ooh these are selfish times
B            A
Oooh these are selfish times
B            Abm                  E                  B    Abm   B
Ooh these are selfish times I got shellfish dimes and sandollars

B Ab D A 

E                           A
I'll no longer be the whit or gaylord's heavy
       E                              Dbm  Abm
The glasses, beard, and bigwig must go
E                         A
I did not play bigger bank in the backseat
        E                                A
Of the cheese that seemed risky  But my jeans were called huskys
E                            A
 I wrote this one on chipped dead elephant ivory
             E                          Dbm Abm
And when they come I close the closet door
       Ab             Dbm
I wanted to breath on beat
                 E                B     Dbm             A
And go a fifth higher than my physical voice was coined for
        Ab                 Dbm
I wanted to serve with hunger
        E                 A                       E
But my gut split and the hunger men poured into war

E A E A

B                E
Ohhh, these are selfish times
B                A            D
Oohhhh, these are selfish times
B                  Abm                E                  B     Abm  B   Ab
Ohhh, these are selfish times I got shellfish dimes and sanddollars
