A chordA E chordE G#mb5 chordG#mb5 A#mb5 chordA#mb5 C#m7 chordC#m7
I knew a man he sat behind a desk that was a million feet wide
G#m/D# chordG#m/D# A chordA E chordE

I knew a man, big and fat, born without arms or legs
G#m/D# chordG#m/D# A chordA E chordE
Born to jump in the air and clap

C#m7 chordC#m7
the same

So too shall I reach Long Island City, one of these days"

cowbell with your gun"
