-Josh tunes his acoustic guitar one full step down (D G C F A D). 
-You could also remain in standard tuning, put  
Capo on the 3rd fret, 
 and then voice the chords on the lower strings (E A D G) instead. 

+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ 



FOREPLAY 
-Play these 8 bars for the verses as well. 
-In terms of finger picking, the most efficient picking is to use one finger 
 for each string, whatever fingers you prefer using. Josh uses T I M R.

verse 1 
' We met in a parking lot 
  just buying coffee and cigarettes, firewood and bad wine long since gone 
  but I'm still drunk and hot, wide awake and breathing hard 



verse 2 
' And now, in just one year's time 
  I've become jealous, rail-thin, prone to paranoia when I'm stoned. 
  Cause isn't true love 'Someone oughta put me in a home?' 



verse 3 
' Say, do you wanna get married, 
  and put an end to our endless progressive tendency to scorn 
  provincial concepts like your dowry and your daddy's farm? 


-Play the first 7 bars as usual; then this 8th bar instead, before the Bridge:

verse 4 (Instrumental) 
' ooh... 



VERSE 5 
' Let's buy a plantation house 
  and let the yard grow wild till we don't need the signs that say 'Keep out' 
  I've got some money left, and it's cheaper in the South 



VERSE 6 
' I need someone I can trust 
  to protect me from our seven daughters when my body says 'Enough!' 
  Don't let me die in a hospital, I'll save the big one for the last time we make love
