*The measurment durnig the verse is not exact, (v  ^  v  ^ above the tab is the up down 
pattern

if theres any confusion)

(key) H=hammer on, P=pull off the the hammer on note, / slide to specified note

(lyrics)
Tell your mom to marry us
A candle to carry us
With cans on our bicycle fenders
So sweet and hilarious
And we'll find us a home
Built of packaging foam
That will be there 'til after we die

And, I'll play the clarinet
Use clamshells for castinets
We play with our bags on our shoulders
My sweet lady lioness
And I watch as you sleep
So indelibly deep
An I hum to you sweet clementine
