THE IDIOT KINGS (Acoustic)- (Capo 4th Fret)
NOTE:
Doughty does it a bit different, but this works for campfires and such...
But there are no good Tabs out for this guy's stuff which is sorely underplayed!
At the end I have given alternate chord fingerings to mix it up a bit
- So make it your own!
Chords and fingerings below are given as if you were playing open chords without the CAPO.
Add 4 to each number for the Capo position if you're a stickler for detail...

G Em7 A7sus4 Cadd2 ( G Em7 A7sus4 Cadd2 )
Well I could be condemned to Hell for every sin, but littering

Well I could slip on the East River and crash into Queens all skittering
G Em7 A7sus4 Cadd2 ( G Em7 A7sus4 Cadd2 )
Well I’ve seen the cops and the robbers And I know they dance the same, well
