Intro:
E
Juno was mad, he knew he'd been had
       A                     E
So he shot at the sun with a gun
 A                      E
Shot at the sun with a gun
A                 E        Dm    D  Dm  D
Shot at his wily one only friend
 
Verse 1:
         E              B
In the gallows or the ghetto (ah-h)
E                     B
In the town or the meadow
          E            B
In the billows, even over the sun (ah-h)
        E                  B
Every end of the time is another begun

You understand mechanical hands

I'm the ruler of everything in the end

Verse 2:
         E                            A
Do you like how I dance? I've got zirconium pants
       E                           A
(Consequential enough to slip you into a trance)
        E                       A
Do you like how I walk? Do you like how I talk?
         E                       A
(Do you like how my face disintegrates into chalk?)
 

          E                       A
I have a wonderful wife, I have a powerful job
         E                      A
She criticizes me for being egocentric (Ha-ha-ha-ha!)
        Gbm                    B
(You practice your mannerisms into the wall)
          Gbm                            B
If this mirror were clearer I'd be standing so tall
 

             Gbm                        B
(I saw you slobber over clovers on the side of the hill)
         Gbm                       B
I was observing the birds (circle in for the kill)
       E                           A
(I've been you, I know you, your facade is a scam)
                   E                        A
You know you're making me cry, this is the way that I am
 

           E                   A
I've been living a lie, a metamorphical scheme
            E                          A
(Detective undercover, brotherhood, objective, obscene)
 

Absus2  A  Absus2  Absus2   E
Oh,    no,   no,     oh,   yeah
 
Bridge:
E
Do you hear the flibbity jibbity jibber jabber
          B
With an, "Oh my god I've got to get out of here or I'll have another
 E
Word to sell, another story to tell
          B
Another time piece ringing the bell"
                        E
Do you hear the clock stop when you reach the end
                          B
No, you know it must be never ending

Comprehend if you can
              E
But when you try to pretend to understand
                 B
You resemble a fool although you're only a man
                    E   B  E  B
So give it up and smile

Outro:
  E
Without looking down, gliding around
          A               E
Like a bumbling dragon I fly
  A                      E
Scraping my face on the sky
Absus2   A   Absus2  Absus2    E
  Oh,    no,   no,    oh,    yeah
