THE DEAD MILKMEN
V.F.W.

from Big Lizard In My Backyard

NOTE: There are two versions in this file. The first is one I found ages ago,
by Ruben Quinones. The second is the latest version I received, from Technocow.
I think Technocow pretty much worked it out by putting in the A, which prompted
me to eventually discover that (I think) it's an Am, which explains why I
couldn't work out whether it was a C or an A.

i wanted to write to say that i've
figured out vfw on guitar. at least the chords. well i don't feel like
writing out the words but the chorus and verses are

G C, G C

(the spacing is important because they aren't the same, play it and
you'll see) and the, my room is such a pig sty my floor has never been
swept, part is just

Em Em Em EmEm EmEmEmEm

That's it, it's pretty easy but cool.

VFW

(G)         (C)          (G)    (Am)
Mom and Dad don't like me
They say I'm mean and crude
They tried to make me a good little boy
By sticking downers in my food

(Em...)

(G)         (C)          (G)    (Am)
Fucked up world
We're all veterans of a fucked up world
Fucked up world
We're all members of a fucked up world

My Neighbours try to run me down
Because I'm such a mess
Maybe it's cause of the way I look
Or maybe the way I dress

(Em)
Philosophers try to put me down
Hey what's the meaning of life?
Go kill a cop and drink till you drop
Baby that's my advice

Chorus

(G)         (C)          (G)    (Am)
Girls don't really like me
That's why I hate myself
Maybe it's cause of the way I look
Or maybe it's something else

(Em)
My room is such a pig sty
My floor has never been swept
But I've got a fuck off attitude
And that's something that should be kept

chorus

End on Em.
