(most all of the chords are backed by an obvious
polka "om-pah" rhythm, hence the title. So most
bass notes should be played in fifths on every 1st
and 3rd beat. [Dm] would be D-A-D-A, [Gm] would be
G-D-G-D, etc. A7#5#9 is voiced: C#-F-G-C)

Well, she crept back in the house at half past three.

VERSE 2
[Am7] [Dm] [Gm]
He's a heap of junk that pours from his
[Dm] C/A [Dm][Am7] [Dm]/-
Top drawer.
He sometimes likes to spread it out around the floor.
It's evidence of what he was like.
He likes to remember when.

We're sinking sha la li lo li.

In a minute it will all be coming down.
And they know it now, but no one makes a sound.
It's such a shame to ruin this bright, lazy sunny day.

And we're treading water now and holding back our tears.
And the day is rising, we're sinking, sha la li lo li.

My my, the cruelest lies are often told

Without a word.

My my, the kindest truths are
[Dm] [A/C#] [Dm] [A/C#] [Dm] A7#5#9 [Gm7]
of- ten spoke, but ne- ver heard.

VERSE 4
She said, "You've been pushing me like I was a sore tooth.
You can't respect me 'cause I've done so much for you."
He said, "Well I hate that it's come to this,
But baby I was doing fine,
[Dm] [C#]+
How do you think that I survived
[F/C] [Dm/B]
The other twenty-five before you?"
