Standard Tuning:
Capo on 2nd Fret
INTRO:
C BbM7
VERSE:
c BbM7
I study up my hollow
C
Piece of wood to follow
BbM7
A day that doesn’t come
To the lucky
C BbM7
And I realize there’s tomorrow
C
But I would rather wallow
BbM7
In the rain then moods that seem
So pot-lucky
PRE-CHORUS:
F
Well I’m cruising El Paseo
C
In my off-white coup back ’65
F
Or I’m cruisin down my own street
And my hooptie says to me
Dm
You better hang on to your bench seat
G
I’m gonna take you for a ride
CHORUS
C
And I’ll let you know
Dm Em7
When it comes, when it comes
F
I’ll let you know
C
But don’t stay up for me
G
Don’t wait up for me
F Fm
If I’m not home
VERSE
So I wait for fate to find me
A ball of string unwind me
Uncomfortable as a centerfold
And I realize your behind me
To help and humankind me
To see my songs can be retold
*PRE-CHORUS 2*
Well I’ll be gone tomorrow
So next time that I see you in school
It won’t be for too long
Repeat Chorus
Interlude:
Bb C Bb C
F Dm G
And I want a leather jacket
But only if I have the time
Well, I’ll comb my hair like Elvis
And grab an old Gretch 59
And you’d hardly recognize me if you
Saw me from behind
Speak Your Mind
