Governers Ball

	  		

E 
He came with his friends, in a caravan 
   G#                     A 
To witness the governor's ball 
E 
Sat by himself on a cool patch of grass 
          A                           B 
While the rest stood like bricks in a wall 
    C#m                    A 
The stage it looked like a vending machine 
    G#                     C#m 
The singer, a black barbie doll 
           E                    A            
But it was well light, and well managed 
      E                   A 
So no property, would be damaged 
          E                  B   A 
Until his boredom, took full advantage 
      E 
Of it all 
E                   
Talked to a girl, with klonopin eyes 
    G#                      A 
Who said she had jewelry to sell 
E            
First he said no thanks, then he realized 
     A                      B          
That he wasn't feeling that well 
        C#m                            A 
And the turquoise she held looked like pieces of sky 
      G#                         C#m      
And a garnet like teardrops from hell 
    E              A                E            A 
She offered, him a necklace, and he wanted to accept it 
             E           B    A              E         
But it would end up, too expensive, he could tell 
              A     E   A              E       F#m      A   B  
Then she said: "Why not? What have you got, to lose, to lose?" 
E 
        E                     
When he never came back, and the curfew had passed 
    G#                                    A 
His friends searched the fair grounds for clues 
        E           
But the security guard with the maniacal laugh 
         A                     B 
Said its always the leader you lose 
        C#m                      A  
When he finally turned up in the broad light of day 
       G#                      C#m 
With a black eye as big as the moon 
         E                   A 
They all asked him, what had happened 
      E              A 
Was it real or, all imagined 
       E             B        A        E 
Why on earth had, he abandoned them so soon 
And he said: 
 A   E    A              E       F#m               A    B 
"Why not? I do what I've got, to do, and so should you, you"
