[Em]Edna Millon in a drop dead suit
Dutch pink in a [B7]downtown train
Two dollar pistol, but the gun won't shoot
I'm in the corner in the [Em]pouring rain
16 men on a deadman's chest
And I've been drinking from a[B7] broken cup
Two pair of pants and a mohair vest
I'm full of burbon; I [Em]can't stand up

[Am]Hey little bird, fly [Em]away home
Your [B7]house is on fire; [Em]your children are alone
[Am]Hey little bird, fly [Em]away home
Your [B7]house is on fire; [Em]your children are alone
The SOLO and Ribot's licks over the verses are all playing off of the INTRO RIFF. With
it is all about tone. Move the riff up the fretboard to try to get some of the licks.
