Tonart: D major
Verse 1
D
It's New Year's Eve at the
gates of hell
Give the antichrist a cigarette
and tell him
The boy's here all the way from Oklahoma
Oh Lord, what the hell is that aroma?
C
G
It's Jimmy Perkins and
all the sonsabitches
D
Who ripped off musicians and
stole their riches
Verse 2
D
They're burning over yonder
with the Fox News whores
Oh, look is that the singer for The Doors
Nope, my mistake 'cause no
matter what they did
Poets deserve to be in heaven
and by the way, kid
C
G
Why am I here when I wasn't that bad?
D
I just didn't like churches
Verse 3
but I never wore plaid
D
Now I know I'm funky and strip bar dirty
And I like a Les Paul through
a Vox AC30
There's something about
a lipstick pickup
Plugged right into a Blond Tremolux
D
Since I pawned by '59 ES 335
Verse 4
D
And sure I drank a lot of gin and tonic
But I never threw away my Panasonic
I kept that turntable through
my divorce
Playing Neil Young and Crazy Horse
C
Drunk out of my mind singing
D
It was as lethal on vinyl as China White
Verse 5
D
Now maybe one time I used an Ouija board
And I never learned to make a B flat chord
So I got a double headed snake tattoo
I love Tao Te Ching by Lao Tsu
C
And the action and the mo
D
G
tion of a roulette wheel
D
And a woman walking away
in a pair of high heels
Verse 6
D
Now once I drew an inside straight flush
And I wished I could sing like Otis Rush
The truth of the matter is
I really can't sing
But I can quote Martin Luther King
D
G
than angel dust is
D
"The arc of the moral universe is long
Interlude 1
But it bends toward justice"
D
G
Verse 7
back to New Year's
Eve at the gates of hell
It's kind of like the Beverly Hills Hotel
Before you can get a table
next to the fire
A sign says jacket and tie required
C
D
G
The devil is bad and God of course is good
D
But there's one thing I never understood
Verse 8
D
God throws us down in hell
for all our sins
Burning in a fire and it never ends
The decision is made at
the highest level
Seems Got out sources
his work to the devil
C
D
Like he's an employee
D
Appears like the devil is working for God
Verse 9
D
I can't believe I said that
I'm losing it
It's New Year's Eve at
the gates of hell
Let's party,
did I mention Jimmy Perkins
D
Was a lying son of a bitch?
