You can figure out a fingerpicking pattern to match the recorded version, if you'd like. Though Dan
usually just strums these chords when he plays this song live.

[Verse 1]

E                 A                E     A
Helena, the ramifications are very large tonight
    E                      A                     B
The stars say don't pick a fight or barge things around
     E              A              E              A
See, apparently our bloodlines are botched beyond redemption
             E                A
Luckily, you don't believe in redemption
                      B                     A
This may work in your favor, I'm told


[Chorus]

Bm7              Dbm
So throw the old furniture in the fire
       Bm7         Dbm
As the children go barbaric behind the wire
             Dmaj7            A
They're just childre-eh-eh-eh-en

Dmaj7

[Verse 2]
       E                 A                E
It's a drag the way your flag had to come down
     A          E                 A              B         A
With one of the above Americas so ferociously in bloom
    E
But pistols at dawn can only work for so long
       A
Curved appetites took flight when you decided to call the song
     E               A                       B          A
“A Pacific-Northwest Bitch Gets Shown To Her Room”


[Chorus]

Bm7              Dbm
So throw the old furniture in the fire
       Bm7         Dbm
As the children go barbaric behind the wire
             Dmaj7            A
They're just childre-eh-eh-eh-en

Dmaj7 A

    Bm7                     Dbm
And this one goes out, just like the one before
       Bm7             Dbm
To the 17th version of How I Won the War
    Bm7                   Dbm
Oh, first Destroyer! And, oh, now the Underground!

[Verse 3]

E                 A                E     A
Helena, the ramifications are very large tonight
    E                      A                     B            A
The stars say don't pick a fight or barge things around


[Outro]

Bm7              Dbm
So throw the old furniture in the fire
       Bm7         Dbm
As the children go barbaric behind the wire
             Dmaj7            A
They're just childre-eh-eh-eh-en
             Dmaj7            A
They're just childre-eh-eh-eh-en
             Dmaj7            A
They're just childre-eh-eh-eh-en
             Dmaj7            A
They're just childre-eh-eh-eh-en
