Sittin’ in the corner / of a shapeless mirror room        Am  F  / G    Am
No fight no more surrender / just (a) hot friction blues     Am   F / G    Am
The fox looking for water / running  ‘round the bulge        F  C    / F    C
In the end of (a) long sunny afternoon                Am  G /    F
The dragon got a knife / to paint black his throat        C   G     / F    Am
sittin’ top of mountain  / watching thirsty fox            Am G /    F
the knife turned be a needle / a poisoned arrowhead        C  G    / F  Am
dragon got salvation / embracing foxie’s neck            Am G     / F
What’s my game plan / Cherry  babe                 Am     / G
What’ s my game plan / with you                    Am     / G
What will be the end / of this sunny afternoon            Am G  / F

Ya know it’s hard at times / change the world in ya         Am  F  / G    Am
sometimes ya look for shelter / trying avoid (an) u-turn    Am  F  / G    Am
homeless looking rescue / forced to take flight         F  C    / F    C
in (the) long and furious dawn / of cherry black beam nite     Am  G /    F
as a stormy iron angel / as a demon out blue sky        C   G     / F    Am
there’ s a new cat in town / he’s crowned with fire        Am   G     F  
it’s not time to quit the game / it’s no longer time to hide C   G     / F    Am
no more no more salvation / your spirit must abide           Am     G     / F
What’s your game plan / Cherry babe                 Am     / G
What’ s your game plan / with me                    Am    / G
What will be the end / of this cherry black beam        Am G  / F

In the mid of duckie night/ dropped soul tear on brownie web Am  F  / G    Am
the needle was a spear / thrust in dragon’s back                  Am  F  / G    Am
Dragon said I’m not a dream / just an accident in (your) life      F    C/F    C
can you please stroke my soul / with your cherry alien smile    Am    G /    F
then the cat defeated the dragon / releasing thirsty fox    C    G    / F    Am
tried to cage his prey / in a magic diamond box            Am    G/    F
the fox turned be an angel / flew away on dragon wings    C    G    /F    Am
the cat died quiet in silence / faded away as smoke ring    Am     G / F
What’s the game plan / Cherry Babe                 Am    / G
What’s the game we’re / asked to play                Am    / G
What will be the end / of this cherry dreamin’ tale        Am G  / F

I mentioned you're accent before in another song,
it works for you but I don't think it works so well for your female singer.

She 'accents' too much for my listening ear, smudging too much. KWIM

Sorry, I like your voice much better.

I still like your lyrics, they are odd and good.

You guys got a real nice rhythm going again!!!

I enjoy the guitar a lot.  I think this song is very interesting.  I enjoyed it a lot.

  It's the first of your songs I've listened to,  Ilike it alot , looking forward to listening to your others, later, hal
