[Strophe]
D/A 
Big stretch and not much sleep 
D/A                                              A 
I got a couple of palm trees on each side of my cheek 
              D/A 
And it's a bright blue Saturday 
D/A                                  A 
And the rummage sells the rubbish to me  
[Pre-Refrain]
                  F 
But if I could buy the sky that's hangin' 
A 
Over this bed of mine 
               F 
If I could climb these vines 
                             G 
And maybe see what you're seein'
[Refrain]
N.C. 
If you were standing on the corner staring straight 
                            A 
Into the eyes of Jesus Christ
[Strophe]
D/A                                               A 
One porch, one dog, one cockroach only one way to be 
             D/A 
I got sewage fruit and it's growing out back from roots 
D/A                             A 
I don't know if they belong to me
[Pre-Refrain]
         F 
But if I could buy the sky that's hangin'  
A 
Over this bed of mine 
           F 
And if I could climb these vines 
                          G 
and maybe see what you're seein'
[Refrain]

[Outro]
Bm            G        A     G       A        G 
I can't tell you how many ways that I've sat, 
      A     G      Bm       G 
And viewed my life today, but I can tell you   
    A       G        A       G     A      Bm 
I don't think that I can find an easier way 
                  G      A       G       A 
So if I see you walking hand in hand in hand 
       Bm               G      A      G      A 
With a three armed man, you know I'll understand 
G      A      G     A       Bm 
But you should have been in my shoes yesterday
