[Intro]
 
Em
 
[Verse 1]
 
Em
Said the plain clothes cop to the beauty queen
 
"I've seen nothing but a spoke in the wheel"
 
So she gave up her crown to a kid with a crutch
 
And they both felt cheated after closing the deal
 
When the white tooth man I ran with then
 
Got all caught up from pissing out in the weeds
 
And a fight upstate with a broken blade
 
And a wife whose finger never wanted a ring
 
[Bridge 1]
 
Em
 
[Verse 2]
 
Em
Said the plain clothes cop to the Indian chief
 
"I've made nothing but an honest mistake"
 
And the postman cried while reading your mail
 
And we all got trampled in the Christmas parade
 
When the white tooth man who sold me the gun
 
A map of Canaan, and a government bond
 
Said "I love this town but it ain't the same"
 
His ski mask ripped as he was putting it on
 
[Bridge 2]
 
Em
 
G A Em
 
Em
 
[Verse 3]
 
Em
Said the plain clothes cop to the holy ghost
 
"I've heard nothing yet that wasn't the wind"
 
And we all got sick on a strip club meal
 
While the statehouse pardoned all the witches again
 
So the white tooth man with his kids in the car
 
And a wad of money that was already spent
 
Said, "I love my dog but she just ran away
 
And she'll keep running like the world never ends"
 
[Bridge 3]
 
Em
 
G A Em
 
Em
