Cm We got large and we got small Cm We got a swimming pool and a cannon ball Cm We turn red and we turn green Cm It’s the craziest thing I’ve ever seen Gm Lost my mind ’cause I’m on the plastic Gm C Who knew it’s so damn drastic Gm Show me what it is you believe in Gm C Slowly she sinks all your teeth in Do you want to go fishing in New Orleans Do you want to get up early in the morning Take me to the river where we do the little storming Hallelujah, I feel it warming Sitting here I count the moons The orders we obeyed Every night ’fore we go to bed I watch while the others pray Chorus: A# Send it off through Delaware just Gm Make it fair for the legionnaires Dm Am Paint a simple portrait of my kind A# Permission to the heartless bombs Gm Gold Plated Hate and the waitress moms Dm Am Serving up the stories of my mind Mexico, you are my neighbor Home of the let's be braver Give me all your sick and your tired Races that we admire Do you want to go dancing in Chicago? Trinidad's got it bad for Tobago Take me to the lake where we do the Avocado Hallelujah, a desparado Sitting here I count the moons The orders we obeyed Every night 'fore we go to bed I watch while the others pray Chorus Coming down from the deserts where you Caught a glimpse of the billionaire Tell me I'm the right one for the ride Paper signs out on the lawns Gold minds and the priceless pawns Does your canyon really open wide? We got large and we got small We got a swimming pool and a cannon ball We turn red and we turn green It’s the craziest thing I’ve ever seen You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm  A#  C  Cm  Dm  Gm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
