Mason City-Fiery Furnaces
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Album: Blueberry Boat
Transcribed by: Martin Mokran
If you don't own this album already, BUY IT! They're one of the few bands today that
tries something new, they could use the support.
-I'm certain of parts 1 and 3, but the second section of Part 2-"Up for shade on Crumb
is a little odd. I'm not sure what chords to use to back it. If anyone figures it out
me at stupidalternative@yahoo.com and I'll correct it and give you props.
Enjoy
the A might sound better barred, up to you
---------------------------Part 1--------------------------------------
[C]Came a card marked [A]Mason City
[F]From my forward[C]er.
[C]Shut the door, don?t [A]let my dad see;
[F]Read aloud dear s[C]ir:
[---]
[F]Understanding you account an upright g[G]ent-
[Bb]lemen Aetna Life agreed and [C]lent.
Bb G~
By the way, my fee is 2.6 percent.
[----]
[C]Write again the R[A]iceville widow
[F]S - A - S - [C]E
[C]I would guess they?ll be turned out t[A]hough
[F]I?ll still make my pl[C]ea:
[----]
If the Du[F]nlay heirs cannot be seen to c[G]are,
Then the [Bb]Banker?s Trust will surely think it f[C]air
Bb G~
To not give extensions, as they musn?t dare.
[---]first solo backing chords is an exact repeat of ^^^^^^
[---]
[C]Write Des Moines on s[A]everal matters
And I [F]near an[C]oint,
[C]Ladle thick the [A]pleasant flatters,
[F]And then comes the [C]point;
[--]
Mr. N[F]elson wouldn?t like to hear it [G]said
As he?s t[Bb]oo proud, so I do it in his s[C]tead:
Bb G~
He shall need an extension?so it read.

This section I'm not sure on. I believe the song actually goes C#m-Cm-D, but the D is
low, maybe you could drop the E string to D, but I don't feel like it. So I supplemented
with F#, which sounds alright. By the way, power chords may be best for this part
[C#m]--Take the Oregon S[Cm]hort Line to Salt La[F#]ke;
take the [C#m]Pere Marquette, take the Michigan Central,
to West Ma[Cm]dison for Christ?s [F#]sake.
[C#m]Forgemen, Molders, Blacksmiths, Boilermakers,
[Cm]None on the [F#]make.
THE PART I DON'T KNOW :(
Up for shade on Crumb Hill
Get something to make my hands still.
But now?Wait.
-------------------------Part 3------------------------------------------
begin playing A one meter
[A]How are you my nabs?
Little [F#]tender footed crabs,
Meet my k[D]nuckle duster.[A]
You [A]geeched that gazoon?s gow
Tried to [F#]break into the bow:
Go w[D]ipe your nose.[A]
(A-G#-F#)- quick change, once each
F#~
I?m just hanging out with some noler knockums,
[F]Just passing time waiting till my stack comes.
[A]Prussian who got jackered,
My s[F#]napper till your knockered,
Get [D]on the snam.[A]
The c[A]hivman wants your chip;
Better [F#]dummy up then go dip:
You?re outta [D]turn.[A]
(A-G#-F#)quickly
[F#]I learned that the lowest form of life is the buffer nabber,
[F]Even worse than the dicer stabber.
THEN COMES THE SOLO...which I didn't tab--just keep it in A and you're safe. Email any
