STANDARD TUNING - CAPO 5 (Scroll down for no capo version)
NO CHORD:
If there's a god,
he's laughing at us
And our football team.
INTRO: C
VERSE 1:
[C]Effington could be a wonderful f'ing place
I can see it from the highway
And I'm wondering
Are they [C]f'ing in their yards
f'ing in their cars
f'ing in the trailers and the backroads and the parking lots of Effington
Making my way to Normal, Illinois.
[C]
VERSE 2:
[C]Maybe I should ditch this little white rental on the interstate
And start a new f'ing life...in effington
[C]I could change my name, grow a beard, start a family
Or I could just keep on moving on, moving on, moving on, moving on
Not stop 'til I get to Normal.
CHORUS 1:
[Am]I [G]want [F]to [C]live [G]in Ef[C]fington

And the soundtrack to it sounds like t[Bb]his[C]

VERSE 3:
[C] And then the people who live in Normal
Can buy the movies that I'll make in Effinghton
That's what normal people do
