G. C. bounce between these two for most of the verses
Gabriel sat on a fence post lips pressed blowing his horn
Played Mingus out to the fields and he played out to dawn.
F. C. G. C. F. C. G. C
Oh oh Dawn, Oh oh, that funky Dawn

Paul and Babe stuffed themselves
into a convenience store
Drank until all was gone,
and then they drank a little more
F C G. C
Cops took one look at them and they left the scene
F C
They went on eating junk food through the night,

But they ate it obscene, just a little obscene

Goodnight to the last day on Earth,

Godspeed, farewell, shalom

To the food storage
No one paid it much mind
as the smoke rose above their heads

They did care that much. They were finally warm,
G. C
they were finally warm.

Danced to a song cross the green
In her wedding dress

G C
Maybe that door is open. Maybe that door is wide
Maybe that door will take me.
On to the other side.
Maybe I'll see Jesus
Larry, Curly or Moe
Maybe they'll be no one waiting for me
when I have to go. When I have to go
I have to go, now play it out funky
(Solo and slow down)

Goodnight to the last day on Earth,
