VERSE 1:
G
I can still see you there
CGG/F#
In your grass-stained underwear
EmG
Dancing crooked circles
AmCD
Across the golf course green
G
It must have been 3 a.m.
CGG/F#
When we hopped that chain link fence
EmG
And ran across the grass
DDsus4
In the pouring rain
G
Oh and you kept falling down
CGG/F#
and rolling on the ground
EmG
like a drunken little bird
Am C D G (G A B) - single notes on 6th and 5th strings as in the intro
flapping its broken wings
CHORUS:
CGBmC
Flapping your broken wings, flapping your broken wings
CEmCDsus4DGG/F#
flapping your broken wings in the green, green grass
BRIDGE:
Em
As if pilgrims with axes
C
had never seen the devil dancing
C#/A7 (X4202X)
in the silent branches
C
of thousand year old trees
Em
As they sailed up the wild coast
C
leaning from their wooden boats
C#/A7
shooting every pretty bird
C
that rose up from the weeds

VERSE 2:
G
When the sun began to rise
CGG/F#
I could see it in your eyes
EmG
and shining on the golf balls
AmCD
lying in the grass
G
And a rusted chain link fence
CGG/F#
a golf cart in a ditch
Em
and the colored flags
GDDsus4
you pulled from all the holes
G
Like jewels on your green dress
CGG/F#
my lady of the golf course
EmG
running in your underwear
AmCDB)
to greet the cops who'd driven up
CHORUS:
CGBmC
Flapping your broken wings, flapping your broken wings
CEmCDsus4DGB)
flapping your broken wings in the green, green grass
CGBmC
Flapping your broken wings, flapping your broken wings
CEmCDsus4DG
flapping your broken wings in the green, green grass
