1st verse:
A9 Ddim
Patty Whitebull fell asleep for 15 years
A9 Ddim
Then unexpectedly she woke to joy and tears
A9 Ddim
She ordered pizza and then asked about her kids
A9 Ddim
They're all grown up now on the reservation grid
[The Ddim chords should be played loudly w/ distortion, while the A chords are quiet.

Since Patty fell asleep things got so extreme
Surfer boys and girls searching for a dream
Paraglide from space die your bungee best
Set yourself alight whilst famine kills the rest
