G D Em C
[VERSE]
G D
I waited for those men to leave
Em C
And I saw something on the roof
G D
I got up on the trashbin and fence
Em C
And I walked softly with my boots
G D
It was there I found my keepsake
Em C
It now hangs inside my house
G D
A dusty picture, made of 2 inch plaster
Em C
Of a woman on a horse
G D
I'll show it to my grandkids
Em C
And I'll tell the story plain
G D
Of the day they closed Big Daddy's down
C D G
And this is what I'll say.
G D
There's a woman there with her head bent
Em C
She's on a horse, and it's getting hotter
G D
She's walking through those skulls and cactus
Em C
In search of food and water
G D
Well she's lost her way in that old plaster
Em C
But she'll find it when she dies
G D
At Big Daddy's up in heaven
C D G
Burgers, shakes and fries
[CHORUS]
G D
They're closing down Big Daddy's
Em C
At least that's what I hear
