Verse 1
(B major) Outside the cats are
scratching (A minor)
Inside the doors are latching
(G major) On the room, the (C major) greedy gloom
The trial (E minor) is (D major) revealed (B major)
Police are six feet deep (A minor)
With switchblades in their teeth
So no (G major) one leaves and they (C major) all believe
(G major) This is (A minor) absolutely real (D major)
Yes, it's real (E minor)
And the sergeant says,
(E major) "are you ready, boys? (E minor)
Get ready, boys
(E major) Aim... (E minor)
And (D major) fire...
(E minor) (E major)
Verse 2
(B major)
Order in the court (A minor)
People ready for the sport
They squirm (G major) and squeak
and (C major) lick their beak (G major) s
And (A minor) grease their feathers down (D major) (B major)
Everybody rise (A minor)
Judge is here with bathroom eyes
A grizzly (G major) bear, he (C major) hugs his chair (G major)
And the greedy (A minor) gavel (E minor) pound (D major) s
Yes, it (E minor) pounds
And the sergeant says,
"are you ready, boys?
Get ready, boys
Aim...
And (D major) fire...
(E minor) (E major) (E minor)

Verse 3
(B major)
In the dungeon s(?) falls
(A minor) Writing appeals upon the wall
And the priest (G major) in prayers
is not (C major) even there
So (A minor) precious is his time (D major) (B major)
To the stake he's tied
(A minor) The swallows sing the triggers slide
He (G major) bids goodbye to the (C major) wattery sky
that plunges (A minor) from his mind (D major)
From his mind (E minor)
And the sergeant says,
"are you ready, boys?
Get ready, boys
Aim...
And (D major) fire...
(E minor)
