Time to call one of the hit makers across the country.
Tim, will you hold on just a second?
Let me introduce you.
Okay, Dick.
Right.
On the Hollywood hotline today we have Tiger Tim.
That knocks me out, Tim.
We'll find out about that in a second.
W-E-B-C radio, channel 56.
That's in Duluth, Minnesota.
An old tiger holds down the air spot from 6 to 10 in the mornings.
How's the weather up there, Tiger?
Weather's kind of cool.
We've had some snow, but it's nice and we like it up here.
Tiger, you get up bright and early every morning.
Your eyes should be clear.
How about looking into the future and picking us a hit of tomorrow?
Well, Dick, one that we pick at W-E-B-C, the one that we think is going to be number one, is the [B] birds in my back pages.
Tim, thanks ever so much.
Okay, Dick.
It's nice talking to you.

[A] [E]
Crimson [C#m] [G#m] flames tied through my ears, [A]
throwing [B] high and [E] mighty traps.

[C#m]
We'll meet our legend [G#m] soon, said I, [A]
drive me [B] thithered proud.
[E] I was so [A] much older [E] then, I'm younger than that now.
In a [C#m] soldier's stance [G#m] I aim my hand [A] at the [B] mongrel [E] dogs who teach.
Fearing not [C#m] I'd become [G#m] my enemy [A] in the instant that [B] I preach.
[C#m] Sisters fled [G#m] my confusion, boats [A] mutiny from [B] stern to bow.
[E] Ah, but I was so [A] much older [E] then, [A] I'm younger [E] than that [A] [E]

My guard [C#m] stood hard [G#m] when abstract threats [A] to [B] noble [E] Duning-land deceived [C#m] me into [G#m]
thinking [A] I had something to [B]
protect.
[C#m] Good and bad [G#m]
find these terms, [A] but clear, no doubt, [B]
somehow, [E] I'll go.
I was so [A] much [E] older then, I'm younger than that now.

Don't get too comfortable.
Now for a special word for you ladies from the people who know all about beautiful hair.
