   G                        C
* motel lights were blinkin'
2.We used to tell each other lies
* only song I ever knew

         D                    G
1.On my chartreuse four-door Lincoln
* our orange plastic button eyes
* Moonlight Bay on the Avenue

                              C
1.On the dock the fish were stinkin'

2.In a former life on a motel chair
* are tales from the Devil's Chin

            D             G
1.I simply didn't have a care.
2.I was Charlie Parker's Teddy Bear
* I could've been a contender

* the old men sit 'round the cracker
C
 barrels
*, me and Bird we'd stay up late
* the old men sit 'round the cracker
 barrels

         D                    G
* children hum their Christmas 
Carols
2.I used to watch him contemplate
* children hum their Christmas 
Carols

                              C
* train tracks all run parallel
* his horn would sit by the window 
and wait
* train tracks all run parallel

             D             G
* they'll all meet up one day
* it was time for him to blow it
* they'll all meet up one day


CHORUS:

        G                C
  On a dusty pew in a vestibule

            D              G
  Sits the Devil playing pocket pool

                         C      
  He's waiting for the next poor 
   Am
fool

          D               G
  Who forgot that it was Sunday
