Enola Gay(Chords)

	        

Listen to the recording for the strumming pattern. 
If the slide chords are too difficult in the Instrumental just play the e and B string portions. 

Em                      Bm 
He didn't give you that nickname 
        C                           D 
But you smile when he calls you the Enola Gay 
          Am                       C 
Turns the lights down low for your migraines 
G                       D 
And fetches what you've strewn 
Em                         Bm 
All around the room up and down the hall 
C                      D 
Asking for your Sodium Pentathol 
   Am                           C            
So you can read aloud from your big tell-all 
G                    D 
Anecdotes in platitudes 

C                         D 
This world's mean getting meaner too 
G                            C 
So why'd you have to make it all about you 
C                  D               Em 
There's no harm in stepping to the side 
           C                       D 
Light your hurricane lamp when the sky grows dark 
G                             C 
The wind's pissed off and the sun's at large 
C                          D                Em 
What you've gotta do, it's just a matter of pride 
          D                            C                G 
Until you vanish like the rest, out of sight and out of mind

Em                     Bm 
Working all day in the control room 
        C                            D 
Mashing Charles Manson songs up with Showtunes 
    Am                           C 
The feelings come quick but they leave as soon 
     G                    D 
Like music from a passing car 
Em                                 Bm 
It's crowded in the club where you meet your friends 
C                             D 
Try to save some room for the elephant 
Am                             C 
Every day's a chore and you're not done yet 
    G                         D 
You didn't think it'd be this hard 

C                         D 
The root's begun, we're a nervous crew 
   G                            C 
So why're you trying to make it all about you 
C                     D               Em 
It's not so bad, it's just a flash of light 
           C                       D 
Light your hurricane lamp when the sky goes dark 
    G                     C 
The rain's upset, it just falls apart 
C                            D                Em 
You will get your wish, it's just a matter of time 
          D                            C                G 
Until you vanish like the rest, out of sight and out of mind 
          D                            C 
Until you vanish like the rest, out of sight
