Am G             C                 F

Arizona curled up with California

Am                           G                               Dm              G

     then she tried to hide the whole thing from New Mexico

Am                      G                     C                  F

   who knew before he saw them making out in Yuma

Fm                                C                   G (2)

      that she had been loving someone new

             F5 (2)          D5 (2)                        E7 (2)

but California not California how could you?

Bb (2)

    the bully loved her cactus

     the underdog her pine

Dm (2)                              G             E7

Am               G                   C            F

     New Mexico had always hated California

Am                          G             Dm                 G

     and though he knew that Arizona wore the pants

Am           G                        C                        F

     he got loaded then he started throwing punches

Fm             C             E7       F     G

     the poor injun never had a chance

 

  C (2)          E7    Am

scissors cut paper

F         C       G (2)

paper covers rock

C (2)              E7   Am

rock crushes scissors

  F (2)     G (2)    F    Fm     C (hold)

scissors fall     apart
