Oedipus Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

GI'm the king's thirty Dsecond son Am

GBorn to him in thirty Dsecond's time Am

GBorn to him the Dnight still young Am

GBorn to him with Dtwo eyebrows on Am

GAnd that's all I Dwas wearing Am

GWhen I woke up Dstaring at the world Am

My mom had been a rather crazy queen

But not at all a sex machine

She liked to keep her body clean, clean

Thought the world to be quite obscene

But she retired to her chamber

And we remain quite strangers

And to see me made her awful sad

And to touch me made her awful sad

And to see me made her awful

And to touch me made her awful

I'm the king's thirty second son

And all it took was thirty second's time

But a spoiled little prince I was not

Had a chamber maid and a chamber pot

And there's thirty one others just like me

There's thirty one others I can be

Sometimes I'd stand by the royal wall

The sky'd be so big that it broke my soul

And i stood on my toes to catch a glimpse

Of my mother's eyes and my mother's skin

And she retired to her chamber

And we remain quite strangers

And to see me made her awful sad

And to touch me made her awful sad

And to see me made her awful

And to touch me made her awful

GAnd one morning I woke Dup

GAnd I thought Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus

Then one morning I woke up and I thought Rex, Rex, Rex

Then one morning I woke up

And I thought Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus, Oedipus

Thirty two's still a goddamn number

Thirty two's still counts

Gonna make it count

Gonna make it count

Gonna oh oh

Thirty two's still a goddamn number

Thirty two still counts

Gonna make it count

I'm the king's thirty second son

There's thirty one others just like me

There's thirty one others on the way

There's thirty one others after that

Sometimes I stand by the royal gate

People screaming love and hate

And they scream

And they scream

And they scream

And they scream

Long live the king,

Long live the queen

And to see me made her awful sad

And to touch me made her awful sad

And to see me made her awful
