I prefer it in G instead of C. Give it a try!
Verse 1:
Em G C
Gold teeth and a curse for this town
G D
Were all in my mouth
G C Em D
Only I don't know how they got out, dear
Em G C
Turn me back into the pet
G D
I was when we met
G C Em D
I was happier then with no mind set

Chorus:
D G
And if you'd a took to me like
C G D
A gull takes to the wind
D G
Well, I'd a jumped from my tree
C G C G
And I'd a danced like the king of the eyesores
C G D
And the rest of our lives would'a fared well
Verse 2:
New slang when you notice the stripes
The dirt in your fries
Hope it's right when you die
Old and bo..ny
Dawn breaks like a bull through the hall
Never should'a called
But my heads to the wall
And I'm lonely
Chorus
Verse 3:
God speed all the baker's at dawn
May they all cut their thumbs
And bleed into their buns
'Till they melt away
Chorus 2:
D G
I'm looking in on the good life
C G D
I might be doomed never to find
G
Without a trust or flaming fields
C G D
Am I too dumb to refine?
G
And if you'd a took to me like
C G C G
Well I'd a danced like the queen of the eyesores
C G D
And the rest of our lives would'a fared well
