  F#
Excuse me, darlin', to disturb you
            D#m
Could you spare a bit of what the lord's left for you?
 F#
Bless your solemn, unending virtue
  D#m
Lest your savior up desert you


[Verse 1]
 F#
Jesus couldn't quell the pains of America in trucks and trains and tractor trailers on the range,
B                                     F#
barmen counting out their change and Goldwyn Mayer,
                                          D#m
Fred Astaire slicking back his oily hair, snort benzedrine off of a mirror, slaps her ass,
                     F#
"how are you dear?" and all the preachers whistle nervous, stare down devils in the back of churches,
B                                     D#m
meet their luscious daughters in the smalls beneath the boughs of birches


[Chorus]
    Bm                    B
And Judy Garland hit the bathroom floor of her cold apartment 'bove a Chelsea store
     D#m                                                 G#
and all the drag queens and all the whores couldn't get poor Judy back up off of her laurels,

     F# B    D#m B D#m B G# B
and Judy (Judy, Judy, Judy)

[Verse 2]
 B                                   F#
Wanna put my foot down on Manhattan
B                                       F#
Watch it float down like a boogie board
B                                       F#
See the water bulging through the avenue
           D#m                               B
Watch the cool kids look out their window, bored
B
As their mother drops the rolling pin, the radio says


[Chorus]
 F#                     B
Judy garland hit the bathroom floor of her cold apartment 'bove a Chelsea store
     D#m                                            G#
and all the drag queens and all the whores couldn't get poor Judy back up off of her laurels,
     F# B  D#m B D#m B G# B
and Judy (Judy, Judy, Judy)


[Outro]
 F#      D#m          F#        D#m
Judy Garland, you're a beauty, darlin'
F#      D#m                 G#m
Judy Garland, you're a beauty, darlin'
F#
Judy Garland, you're a beauty, darlin'
  G#     B
Oh, Judy
