VERSE 1:
[G]I can still see you there
In your gr[C]ass-stained underw[G]ear[G/F#]
D[Em]ancing crooked c[G]ircles
Ac[Am]ross the golf course g[C]reen[D]
[G]It must have been 3 a.m.
When we [C]hopped that chain link f[G]ence[G/F#]
[Em]And ran across the g[G]rass
In the pouring r[D]ain[Dsus4] [D]
[G]Oh and you kept falling down
and r[C]olling on the gr[G]ound[G/F#]
like a d[Em]runken little bi[G]rd
Am C D G (G A B) - single notes on 6th and 5th strings as in the intro
flapping its broken wings
CHORUS:
[C]Flapping your br[G]oken wings, fl[Bm]apping your br[C]oken wings
[C]flapping your b[Em]roken w[C]ings in the [Dsus4]green, gr[D]een gr[G]ass[G/F#]
BRIDGE:
As if p[Em]ilgrims with axes
had never s[C]een the devil dancing
C#/A7 (X4202X)
in the silent branches
of th[C]ousand year old trees
As they s[Em]ailed up the wild coast
le[C]aning from their wooden boats
[C#/A7]shooting every pretty bird
that r[C]ose up from the weeds
[(G] [F#)] [Em] [C] [C#/A7] [C] [G]  
INTRO:

VERSE 2:
When the s[G]un began to rise
I could s[C]ee it in your e[G]yes[G/F#]
and sh[Em]ining on the g[G]olf balls
[Am]lying in the gr[C]ass[D]
And a r[G]usted chain link fence
a g[C]olf cart in a d[G]itch[G/F#]
and the c[Em]olored flags
you p[G]ulled from all the h[D]oles[Dsus4] [D]
Like j[G]ewels on your green dress
my l[C]ady of the g[G]olf course[G/F#]
[Em]running in your u[G]nderwear
to gr[Am]eet the cops who'd dr[C]iven [D]up[G] [(G] [A] [B)]
CHORUS:
[C]Flapping your br[G]oken wings, fl[Bm]apping your br[C]oken wings
[C]flapping your b[Em]roken w[C]ings in the [Dsus4]green, gr[D]een gr[G]ass[(G] [A] [B)]
[C]Flapping your br[G]oken wings, fl[Bm]apping your br[C]oken wings
[C]flapping your b[Em]roken w[C]ings in the [Dsus4]green, gr[D]een gr[G]ass
[G] [Em7] [G]
