(Jon plays a melody with his fiddle over the top of these intro chords)

1st verse

F#m
Well this is murder
E	   B
Yeah I'm on the dog train
      D	   A
When all the breaks have failed
	   E		  F#m
And I'm going down hill.
F#m
And if you see me wave
E		   B
Yeah I'm only saying bye-bye
	   D	   A
There's not a single tear
E		F#m
here in my eyes.

Chorus

F#m
La la la la la
E	   B
La la la la la la la la
D     A
La la la la la
E	F#m
La la la

Repeat intro chords once with different melody on fiddle over the top.

2nd verse
(Same chords as first verse)

And if you heard this before
Yeah I'm going to say it again
That life was easy when
I didn't have a clue
Because this is my job
Yeah I'm getting dog tired
Let's make the world brand new
How about you

Chorus (x2)

Play intro chords once again but this time there is brass over the top of
them.

Chorus (to fade)
