Third on the list of this album is Belgium, home of the delicious waffle. This one is also relatively
straightforward. note that the last verse, starting with "Hung around for a few days" is played 
by lightly strumming and, uh, barring? Is that the word?   I do not know much about music or the notation 
thereof, I'm just a big Ghost Mice fan, so forgive me if I'm saying that wrong. I don't know. 
You'll figure it out.

"Belgium"
AWe arrived really lF#ate at night
And we fEound a place to sleep under a Dsmall patch of trees
We Adidn't set up our F#tent that night
We just pEut sleeping bags right Ddown in the weeds
The Aground was covered in F#thorns
But the gEround was dry and the gDround was warm
And Awe could see the stars at F#night
So we Eknew we'd be aDlri-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-Eight
AI heard some footsteps F#approaching the fence
So I Epicked my head up to get a lDook at it
It was the Amost monstrous cF#ow I'd ever seen
With eEyes like a devil burnin' sDtraight into me
And I Aknew that if it cF#ould
It would Ehop over that fence and cDrush us with its hoofs
And I Aknew that we were in F#deep
Eighty days lEeft, I'm glad that you are here with Dme-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-Ee
We Awoke up the next F#morning to discover
Our tErue enemy was bDeneath us the whole time
There were Aslugs all over our F#sleeping bags
And eEverywhere they went they left a tDrail of slime
And we pAacked up our things, we F#walked into town
Into a Etown I'd never heard of befDore
We ate fAries in a Medieval F#market,
Of thousands of sEauces
I Dchose ketchup of cAourse
DOf couArse, Dof coAurse, Dof couArse, oDf coAur-
HAung around for a fEew days then hDeaded out
On our wAay we got dropped off without wEanting to be
In the cDity where most of the world's dAiamonds are made
But the city of treasures and spEarkly things
Didn't hDold many splendors for Ayou and me,
Just mean old ladies in the McEDonalds bathroom that Dwanted us to pay to Apee

The ground was covered in thorns

But the ground was dry and the ground was warm

And we could see the stars at night

E D E

So we knew we'd be alri-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-ight

A F#

I heard some footsteps approaching the fence

E D

So I picked my head up to get a look at it

A F#

It was the most monstrous cow I'd ever seen

E D

With eyes like a devil burnin' straight into me

A F#

And I knew that if it could

E D

It would hop over that fence and crush us with its hoofs

A F#

And I knew that we were in deep

Eighty days left, I'm glad that you are here with me-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e

A F#

We woke up the next morning to discover

In the city where most of the world's diamonds are made

But the city of treasures and sparkly things

D A

Didn't hold many splendors for you and me,

E D A

Just mean old ladies in the McDonalds bathroom that wanted us to pay to pee
