[Verse]
B
Brighten the corners and clear out the room
Fb
Color the flowers in rose and maroon
F#
Light up the fires and season this wine
C#m
We're gonna party like it's 1699
[Verse]
B
Slaughter the rabbits, the doves, and the boars
Fb
And lay all the tables and open the doors
F#
The Creme del a Creme will be waiting
C#m
On one guest of honor
[Pre-Chorus]
Fb
Oh up go the curtains
C#m
And down go the virgins
B A#
Oh no, mothers are crying
Fm C#m B F#
Ladies of virtue, will stand to accuse you of heartbreak and theft
[Chorus]
B
Bells are gonna ring
D#m
Birds are gonna sing
G#m C#m
Let the people begin
B C#m B
The crowning of your big head
[Verse]
B
Young drunken girls in a hideous dance
Fb
Sing a heartfelt lament of the death of romance
F#
Beautiful boys turn and offer their cheeks
C#m
Preening and prancing, the outcome looks bleak
[Verse]
B
Good times are rolling
But outside these walls
Fb
Our houses will crumble, this city will fall
F#
But a few broken pawns don't mean nothing
C#m
To our guest of honor
[Pre-chorus]
Fb
So let's raise our glasses
C#m B
To murderess asses like you
A#
May you sleep soundly
Fb
Once we had laughter
C#m
You got what you're after
B F#
Oh you wear it well
[Chorus]
B
Bells are gonna ring
D#m
Birds are gonna sing
G#m C#m
Let the people begin
B C#m
Hear how the hearts are pounding
B Fb
We're all witnessing the crowning
F# Bm
Of your big bleeding head
[Instrumental]
Bm Fbm Bm C#m F#
[Verse]
B
Bells are gonna ring
D#m
Birds are gonna sing
G#m C#m
Let the people begin
[Outro]
B Fb
Hear how the hearts are pounding
B C#m
Your rise, nothing but astounding
B Fb
We're all witnessing the crowning
G#m F# B
On your useless, ruthless head
