VERSE 1:
G
I can still see you there
     C         G  G/F#
In your grass-stained underwear
 Em       G
Dancing crooked circles
 Am          C    D
Across the golf course green
🎸

G
It must have been 3 a.m.
    C            G  G/F#
When we hopped that chain link fence
Em         G
And ran across the grass
        D Dsus4 D
In the pouring rain

G
Oh and you kept falling down
   C        G  G/F#
and rolling on the ground
    Em       G
like a drunken little bird
Am       C  D   G [G A B] - single notes on 6th and 5th strings as in the intro
flapping its broken wings

CHORUS:
C        G       Bm      C
Flapping your broken wings, flapping your broken wings
C       Em   C      Dsus4  D   G  G/F#
flapping your broken wings in the green, green grass

BRIDGE:
    Em
As if pilgrims with axes
      C
had never seen the devil dancing
C#/A7 [X4202X]
in the silent branches
   C
of thousand year old trees
     Em
As they sailed up the wild coast
 C
leaning from their wooden boats
C#/A7
shooting every pretty bird
   C
that rose up from the weeds

[G F#] Em C C#/A7 C G

VERSE 2:
     G
When the sun began to rise
     C       G  G/F#
I could see it in your eyes
   Em      G
and shining on the golf balls
Am       C  D
lying in the grass

    G
And a rusted chain link fence
  C       G  G/F#
a golf cart in a ditch
     Em
and the colored flags
   G          D   Dsus4 D
you pulled from all the holes

   G
Like jewels on your green dress
  C      G     G/F#
my lady of the golf course
Em        G
running in your underwear
   Am          C  D   G [G A B]
to greet the cops who'd driven up

CHORUS:
C        G       Bm      C
Flapping your broken wings, flapping your broken wings
C       Em   C      Dsus4  D   G  [G A B]
flapping your broken wings in the green, green grass

C        G       Bm      C
Flapping your broken wings, flapping your broken wings
C       Em   C      Dsus4  D   G
flapping your broken wings in the green, green grass
