   Am                                           Em
When the time comes to documentary what we did here

        G                                 Am
The transcription won't really be that hard

      Am
'Cos i'm a woman eating monster

Em
With a suitcase full of fire

           G                      Am
And pink flamingos decorate my yard

           G                         Am

Do you remember that young girl who did all those things with her body?

           G                                             Am
Yeah, I guess you could say it was me who gave her her start!

I hear she's working for President Clinton the way she used to work for me

       G                                      Am
But my pink flamingos keep pecking at her heart

           G                               Am
My pink flamingos keep pecking at her heart!



Chorus progression:


   G          C     D Dsus4 
And they never fly away

G         C             D Dsus4
In my front yard they stay

Am                             C
And, baby I sometimes find it odd

Em                              (F# G root notes)      C     Am
You've got to climb the statue of the demon to get closer to God!


Repeat chorus progression again



Verse progression

Now there's a crowd outside demanding my resignation
And a policeman about to draw his gun
Seems I've lost this battle
But the war has just begun
'Cos my pink flamingos will outlive everyone
Yeah my pink flamingos will outlive everyone!


Chorus progression

And they never fly away
In my front yard they stay
And, you know, baby
I sometimes find it odd
You've got to climb the statue of the demon to get closer to God!
