Verse 1
Ab 
Uncle B  (A flat major) asks, Where were you June 6th,
1944?
June 6th, 1944.
Db 
Ab 
Metal detector  (D flat major) salesman D  (A flat major) -Day, Normandy,
France.
Scouring the beach at four in the morning,
black socks and sandals,
helping a gay glassblower named Jean
hunt for a friendship bracelet
he dropped out of
a pair of Speedos
earlier that evening.
I look out in the ocean,
a hundred thousand surfers
come running at me
with Tom Hanks in a bunch of green,
ugly wetsuits.
Got guns in the hand,
enough luggage
to keep a team of bellhops busy
for about a month.
A bullet from a sand dune parts my hair.
Jean takes shrapnel in the high
and end.
I drag him to a suntan lotion stand,
wrap his butt in a beach towel
tourniquet.
My Geiger counter's beeping
like a dope dealer
at a crack house picnic.
I say, Jean, with this many bullets in the beach,
Forget about that fag bracelet.
