[Intro]
A D E A
A D E A
[Verse]
A D
The motel lights were blinkin'
E A
On my chartreuse four door Lincoln
A D
On the dock the fish were stinkin'
E E
I simply didn't have a care
A D
And the old men sit 'round the cracker barrels
E A
The children hum their Christmas carols
A D
The train tracks all run parallel
E A
But they'll all meet up one day
[Chorus]
A D
On a dusty pew in a vestibule
E A
Sits the Devil playing pocket pool
A D
He's waiting for the next poor fool
E A
Who forgot that it was Sunday
[Verse 2]
A D
We used to tell each other lies
E A
With our orange plastic button eyes
A D
In a former life on a motel chair
E A
I was Charlie Parker's teddy bear
D
Yeah, me and Bird we'd stay up late
E A
I used to watch him contemplate
D
While his horn would sit by the window and
E a
Wait till it was time for him to blow it
[Chorus 2]
A D
On a dusty pew in a vestibule
E A
Sits the Devil playing pocket pool
A D
He's waiting for the next poor fool
E A
Who forgot that it was Sunday
[Interlude]
D E A
D E A
[Verse 3]
A D
The only song I ever knew
E A
Was "Moonlight Bay on the Avenue"
D
These are the tales from the Devil's chin
E A
Charlie I could've been a contender
[Chorus 3]
A D
And the old men sit round the cracker barrels
E A
The children hum their Christmas carols
D
The train tracks all run parallel
E A
But they'll all meet up one day
[Chorus 4]
A D
On a dusty pew in a vestibule
E A
Sits the Devil playing pocket pool

He's waiting for the next poor fool

Who forgot that it was Sunday
