Mayfly: What I Tell You Three Times is True)
Tabbed by: Sludge


Am F C G
Mail order brides, turtlenecks, and trophy wives
Am F
Had the ways and means to breach
C G

The borders of easy street
C G
And to blend right in
C
We all surrounded them
F C
In a white picket fence
G C
Now both ends meet


(Chorus)
F
Sufficed to say there's a time and a place
C
So I wait
G Em
For the tug-of-war and who you'll pull for
F Am
While between you and me from point A to point B is a fine line
C G
That burns at both our good ends



Am F C G
2 peas in a pod, a battleaxe, and a bastard child
Am F
took one step more
C G
and went straight to the source
C G
and to blend right in
C
they opened fire with
F
their rain checks spent
C G C
to make ends meet


Chorus


F
Go on, paint the whole town red
C
I'd rather follow who cleans up the mess
G D
And so I wait.
