Living in the meadow,
the mighty mighty meadow.
With too many people,
sucking all the water.
Yeah my daddy [B]was a farmer.
He was a race [A]car driver.
He is a four [G]leaf clover.
He is the next m[F#m]essiah.
(play intro)
Now he's living in the woods,
the dark and dank woods.
With a cocktail waitress,
who thinks she's an artist.
Take her down [B]to the river,
split her right[A] up the middle.
Now there's gonn[G]a be trouble,
for a pregna[F#m]nt lamb and a con man.
(intro)
I sit in the clink,
dye his hair in the sink.
And the tumor gonna make a
man out of him.
Now my daddy w[B]as a chancer.
He was a bad [A]check bouncer.
But if he had[G] cancer,
he's a su[F#m]rvivor.
He's the n[B]ext mes[A]siah.
He's the n[G]ext me[F#m]ssiah.
He's the n[B]ext mes[A]siah.
He's the n[G]ext me[F#m]ssiah.

Covering it up,
squeezing it out,
watching it bleed.
You're watching it all,
taking it back.
She's down on her knees.
[A] When did she come to detest y[G]ou?[F#m]
Giving it back,
backing you up,
nothing's for free.
You're giving it back,
for locking you up,
those terrible deeds.
[A] When will they c[G]ome to a[F#m]rrest you?
When did she come to detest you?
When will they come to arrest you?
When did she come to detest you?
[E]I'm gonna give my love to you on a day you gotta bring it back. (x4)
I want to tell you I love you. (x4)
[A] [G]
[E]I want to tell you I love you. (x5)
I'm gonna go out walking baby, better be here when I get back.(x2)
[A] [G]
Oooohhhh
I'm gonna give my love to you on a day you gotta bring it back. (x2)
I want to tell you I love you. (x2)
He's the n[B]ext mess[A]iah.
He's the n[G]ext mess[F#m]iah.
He's the n[B]ext mess[A]iah.
He's the n[G]ext mess[F#m]iah.
