Intro 1
(A minor)
Verse 1
One night (A minor) I pawned my motorcycle
through the desert spell
And I smashed my body so that all
my friends thought I was dead
My sister held me close,
whispered to my bleeding head
You are the son of a motherfucker
Took (D major) all night and I (G major) held her hand,
(E flat major) shocked me, well I'll (G sharp major) pretend (A minor)
Land (D major) of plenty, land (G major) of fun,
(E flat major) to find out I'm
(G sharp major) Nimrod's son (A minor) (G major)
Oh, bury me, (F major) far away,
please, (E flat major) bury me
The (A minor) (B flat major) (G minor) (A minor) (B flat major) (G minor) joke has come (A minor) upon me,
that's (B flat major) right (G minor) (A minor) (B flat major) (G minor) (A minor)
In my motorcycle mirror,
I think about the life I've led
And how my soul would leak in all
the holes where I had been
My image spoke to me,
yes to me it often said
You are the son of incestuous union
yawn yawn yawn yawn
Now my (D major) head is (D minor) clear, (D major)
(D minor) my roof (G major) has walls
My daugh (E flat major) ter's pure,
my son (G sharp major) is tall (A minor)
Land (D major) of plenty, (G major) land of fun
Soon (E flat major) you'll find out I'm
Nimrod's son (A minor) (G major)
Oh, bury me (F major)
Far away please,
(E flat major) bear with me (A minor) (B flat major) (G minor) (A minor) (B flat major)
The (G minor) (A minor) joke has come upon me (B flat major) (G minor)
(A minor) The joke has come upon (B flat major) me (G minor) (A minor)
