Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
The  D.A. is dressed to the nines
In  the mirror he practices all his lines
To  his closing argument twelve hearts beat in favor
I'm  guessing that he read the morning paper
The  headline reads "the man hangs", but the jury  doesn't
 Pre Chorus:
And  everyone's looking for relief
United  States versus disbelief
Mothers  cast tears on both sides of the aisle
Clear  your throat and face the world
The  verdict falls like bachelors for bad luck  girls
Only  breathing with the aid of denial.
Case  open, case shut,
 But you could pay  to close it like a casket
Baby  boy can't lift his headache head
Isn't  it tragic? (Whoaaa-ooo)
 He glances at his peers sitting seven to twelve stacked
 On one to six the gallery is hushed
 Boys in three pieces dream of grandstanding and bravado
 The city sleeps in a cell notwithstanding what we all know
 Hang on a rope or bated breath
 Whichever you prefer
 Pre chorus
 And everyone's looking for relief
 A bidding war for an old flame's grief
 The cause, the kid, the course, the charm, and the curse
 Not a word that could make you comprehend
 Too well dressed for the witness stand
 The press prays for whichever headline's worse
 Case open, case shut,
 But you could pay to close it like a casket
 Baby boy can't lift his headache head
 Isn't it tragic? (Whoaaa-ooo)
Fresh  pressed suit and tie
Unimpressed  birds sing and die
Can  talk my way out of anything
The  foreman reads the verdict
"In  the above entitled actions we  find the defendant..."
Guilty...Guilty...Guilty...Guilty..
 .
 Case open, case shut,
 But you could pay to close it like a casket
 Baby boy can't lift his headache head
 Isn't it tragic?
