Chords for 1998, March 1st. Walk Don't Run with General George Babbitt.

We bought two guitars in a pawn shop _
_ [F] in [A] 1959 in Tacoma, Washington.
_ _ [D] _ _ [F#] And _ _ _ we [G#m] were trying to learn and bought [B] some court books. _ _
_ And we didn't have a drummer or a bass player.
As a matter of fact, we didn't know a drummer or a bass player.
So _ we were rehearsing at my sister's [F#] house.
_ _ _ [G#]
And she knew the neighbors [N] and they had a son.
He was 17 years old.
And he was _ _ _ playing drums in the high school marching band.
_ So we got him _ over to the house to practice with us.
And _ [B] as a matter of fact, [F] he worked out very well.
[A] And _ _ he was [F#] the very first drummer.
He [N] was with us actually for about eight or nine months.
_ He was the very first _ drummer ever to play Walk Don't Run with the Ventures.
And actually, _ _ yeah, all right.
_ _ _ _ You're _ _ [F#] just_ Hey.
Oh, a bunch of old people out here, huh? _ _ _ _
[E] My kind of [A] people. _ _ _
So he came over and _
_ _ _ _ [B] he had a lot to do with the [E] _ arrangement of Walk Don't Run, which was very important. _ _
And _ now he is _ _ a four-star general.
[N] _
How about that?
All right.
_ I'd like to introduce to you _ General _ George _ Babbage. _ _ _ _
A little reunion here. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Yeah! _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Yeah, there's a little 17-year-old there.
_ _ _ _ [G#m] Grew up, [F#m] didn't he?
_ _ _ _ _ _ All right.
We're going to play this for you.
[N] And _ _ George is going to start it off for us.
It's our first hit.
_ It's a lot of records for us.
It's called Walk Don't Run. _ _ _ _ _

How about that? _ _ _

_ _ _ _ Hey, _ _ [N] one more time. _ _ _
How about that?
He still remembers.
_ Yes!
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
All right. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Where's the_ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [N] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ All right.
We have an award coming out here somewhere sometime, I think, don't we?
Do we?
Yeah. _ _ _
Here it comes.
_ All right. _
_ _ _ Look at that, will you? _
_ How nice. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ All right, George. _
_ You know, we received these in _ _ 1990.
[A] _
[Em] And, _ _ _ _ of course, the _ _ people [N] who made these, realizing that you were our first drummer, indeed, _
_ did our very first recording with us.
_ Didn't sell many records, but_
_ _ It [Am] wasn't your fault, I know.
_ _ _ [F#] _ _ Anyway.
_ _ _ _ They have recognized that you [F] have done all these things,
and they have inducted you into the Northwest _ Area Rock and Roll [E] Hall of [G] Fame.
[N] _ _ _ Yes! _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [N] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
As long as I'm up here, I've got to say something, too.
_ _ _ _ _ _ You know, there's probably quite a few 17-year-old drummers in high school _
who played drums for a while and then saw the rest of their group go on to fame and fortune. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ But I'll bet you there aren't very [A#] many of them who, 38 years later, got to perform with [D] them again.
So thanks to all of [N] them. _ _ _ _
