Song: Strange Victory
Tabbed by: AJB
Intro: D G
D
Squirrels imported from Connecticut
Just in time for fall
G
How much fun is a lot more fun?
Not much fun at all
D
What's with all the handsome grandsons
In these rock band magazines?
G
And what have they done with the fat ones?
The bald and the goatee'd?
D
Strange victory!
A
Strange victory!
Bm
Strange victory!
G
Strange defeat
D G
D
A tale is told of a band of squirrels
Who lived in defiance of defeat
G
They woke up in the nightmare world
Of craven mediocrity
D
They said, "We're coming out of the black patch!
We're coming out of the pocket!
G
We're calling into question
Such virtue gone to seed!"
Chorus (x2)
