(All G-chords Are Played Barred)
[C][Dm][C][Bb] (3x) [F][G]


Dm                     Am                  Bb              G
All is quiet on the western front, there appears to be a lull
Dm                             Am                    Bb
John and Jane Doe are sleeping well tonight with the little thoughts
  G
inside their skulls
Dm             Am                     Bb                   G
Salome she's undressed to the nines although a few pounds fatter
          Dm                    Am                       Bb
She's got Pavlov's bells on her ankles and wrists, she's coming at
             G
you with her platter


[C][Dm][C][Bb] (3x) [F][G]


   Dm                  Am             Bb                  G
So I stole down to the waterfront to escape the desert heat
    Dm                      Am               Bb               G
Aww what on earth you gotta do around here to try and get yourself a 
drink
      Dm                 Am       Bb                  G
Heard John the Baptist preaching "Make way for the King,
           Dm         Am                 Bb               G
but if you wanna recognize him you gotta tell me all your sins"


         C              Dm                   Bb             F
They are building a new gallows for when you show up on the street
C              Dm                           Bb                   F
Polishing the electric chair, they're gonna give you a front row seat
        C                  Dm         Bb             F      G
Heard a sneer outside the garden, salutation so well-heeled:
Am              C                  Bb
"Welcome all you suckers to Struggleville"


[C][Dm][C][Bb] (3x) [F][G]


Dm                    Am            Bb              G
I've been trying to negotiate peace with my own existence
            Dm                   Am                    Bb
She's got a stockpile full of weaponry; she's breaking every cease-fire
G
agreement
         Dm             Am               Bb                   G
Ohh, the whole thing is full of decay as sure as I'm made of dust
    Dm          Am                Bb
And into rust I know the beast is falling


         C              Dm                   Bb             F
They are building a new gallows for when you show up on the street
C              Dm                           Bb                   F
Polishing the electric chair, they're gonna give you a front row seat
        C                  Dm         Bb             F      G
Heard a sneer outside the garden, salutation so well-heeled:
Am             C             Bb
"Final stop, no points beyond Struggleville
     Dm              C                  Bb
Ohh, welcome all you suckers to Struggleville"
