Capo 6
Am E
short delay the parrot blues,
F C
little voices mimick you,
E F
it's not so hard to make that sound,
Am E
so watch your back, the Ides of March,
F C
cut your hair like Joan of Arc,
E F
disguise your will, they'll find you out,
E
and when they do...
F G
look out
F G
there's money lenders inside the temple
F C
the circus tiger's gonna break your heart
E F
something so wild turned into paper
Dm G
if I loved you, well that's my fault
Am E
a bitch in heat, the alpha male,
F C
not something she'd ever tell,
E F
except when she got deathly high,
Am E
and out it came like summer rain,
F C
washed the cars and everything,
E F
felt clean for just a little while
E F G
a telephone, we drunk dialed
F G
the starving children they ain't got no mother
F C
there's pink flamingos living in the mall
E F
I'd give a fortune to your infomercial
Dm G
if just somebody would just take my call
Dm G
take my call,
Dm G
take my call,
C
hello?
F
patterns in my mind now moving slow
C
sorrow all across the surface rolls
G
smoothing out the edges of the stone
Dm
the lights are out where'd everybody go?
F E
hello?
Am E
erase yourself and you'll be free
F C
Mandala destroyed by the sea
E F
all we are is colored sand
Am E
so pay to ride the ferris wheel
F C E F
smile all that you can feel is gratitude for what has been
E F G
cuz it did not happen
F G
there's money lenders inside the temple
F C
the circus tiger's gonna break your heart
E F
something so wild turned into paper
Dm G
If you loved me, well that's your fault
F G
there's money lenders inside the temple
F G
this crystal city's gonna fall apart
E F
when all their power turns into vapor,
Dm G
If I miss you well that's my fault,
Dm G
well that's my fault
Dm G
well that's my fault

Just saying, the correct lyrics are "A bitch in heat; the Alpha Male." A bitch is a female dog or wolf. The Alpha Male is, obviously, the male leader of a pack. For a female dog or wolf to be "in heat," it would mean that she is ready to mate. It's also "A telethon," not "a telephone."
