From "Furr" 
Capo 2 
(Verse 1)
I'm a Dbroke down Awreck with a Gball and Cchain
Just Dsitting in the Akitchen with my Gfortune and Cfame
There's a Dmonkey in a Amask and he's Gcalling my Cname
There's a Fmidget on his Cback,
Hes waiting Gfor the Dmidnight Atrain
A, Em, G,  D(2X) 
Cause were Dpulling Cup Astakes
Gotta Fload up the Gcar
Get my Dright Cbeat Aback
Do some Fair Gguitar
Cause Im Frunning from the Cair-jets
InGside of my Dhead
On my Fbed
With a Cleg full of Glead
We're trading gold for Fbread
(same as verse 1) 
Well the militarized mistress yeah you sink like a stone
Well I'm out here on the sidewalk where the buffalo roam
I can see it in your crystal dancing in like a storm
Blowing dusty through the kitchen
While you're standing in your high heels in your hall
A, Em, G,  D(2X) 
DCause weCre Apulling up stakes
Gotta Fload up the Gcar
Get my Dright Cbeat Aback
Do some Fair Gguitar
Cause Im Frunning from the Cair-jets
InGside of my Dhead
On my Fbed
With a Cleg full of Glead
We're trading gold for Fbread
(Same as verse 1)
Yeah there's this choice you gotta make and itll cut to the coil
Like a preacher throwing dice instead of seeds on the soil
There's a lady and her lover and the'yre covered in oil
Slipping down through the cracks
With the attack and a face full of foil 
A, Em, G,  D(2X)
DCause weCre Apulling up stakes
Gotta Fload up the Gcar
Get my Dright Cbeat Aback
Do some Fair Gguitar
Cause Im Frunning from the Cair-jets
InGside of my Dhead
On my Fbed
With a Cleg full of Glead
We're trading gold for Fbread
