The Valley of Malls

Em riff

The King of Araby is coming home today

Em riff

It's bumper touching bumper on the motorway

G A C

The sun is in the sky just now

B Em riff

But the road is grey

Em riff

They drive in Winnebagos from the Everglades

Em riff

Pulled over by the troopers in the mirror shades

G A

The Caravan is sorry

C Am B

The driver has a twenty and change

D riff

And we're leaving all the road for dead

Am riff

We're getting tired of the twists and turns

D riff

You gotta go when human nature calls

C B

We're driving, we're driving

Em riff

Through the valley of malls

Em riff

And God forgive the passengers if we should fail

Em riff

To find a penny fountain of a half-off sale

G A

I need a merchant

C B Em riff

I've just started searching for a Holy Grail

Em riff

Fighting for the freedom from a common bond

Em riff

To be a barracuda in the guppy pond

G A C Am B

So little time for so many things to try on

Instrumental verse same chords

D riff

And we're leaving all the road for dead

Am riff

We're getting tired of the twists and turns

D riff

You gotta go when human nature calls

C B

We're driving, we're driving

Em riff

Through the valley of malls

Em riff

Through the valley of malls ......
