[G] So I'm gonna [F#] do two more.
So this next song is a very old song of mine
and I didn't like it anymore.
I pretty much thrown it away.
I never played it anymore.
And then about [Bm] a year ago,
a very [Dm] large corporation came along
[N] and they used this particular song
for a national ad campaign.
And they paid me,
I'm not gonna say [F#] the number, but,
well, I could buy a new car
and make my record with the money.
So they paid me a lot of money.
[N] So now I [B] like this song again.
[F#] I'm [G] gonna leave for you [N] now.
So yeah, so the corporation,
I'm gonna tell you what it was.
It was Bank of America.
This was [D#] a year ago when they still had cash.
[F#]
And they really,
this song really did fit the ad pretty well.
But there was one problem,
which is [Em] the [B] word breast appeared in the song.
[G#]
It's a completely [F#] benign [B] lyric,
but they did not like [F#] that.
And so they asked me if I could change that one line.
And so I changed it to [N] knockers.
And they made me redo it.
I don't know why.
[F#] [G] But I'm gonna [B] give you the full out, [F#] uncensored version.
Did you see it?
I never saw it.
I don't watch enough TV.
But so here you go.
It's called Marry Go Round.
[B] Someone is [F#] tossing paddles in the stream somewhere.
Someone is standing at the foothills of their dreams.
Someone got a pain brush,
just leaning over [B] doubts.
Someone opened [F#] up his eyes and saw the sun coming up.
Someone was captive and found the courage to get [B] off
from a border in the [F#] well somewhere the rain had stopped.
Someone is [B] finding the [F#] place where they belong.
[Bm] [F#] Every day is summer somewhere in the world.
And the summer boys are headed for the falls to kiss the girls
with their impatient hands,
groping honey breasts and curls.
They are filled with desire.
And high in the hills,
there's a baby being born.
[B] There's forgiveness and [F#] peace watched over bruises and sores.
People bridging the distance over nettles and thorns.
Everyone is bored all around.
[B] Some things rise up so that others [F#] come down.
If the devil don't dance,
heaven won't shine.
It's a mighty thick haze and it's a breathing lava.
The faucet is tightened up.
The love won't [Bm] flow.
If the love isn't bright enough,
the corn won't [F#] grow.
If the night isn't dark enough,
the moon won't glow.
Rich man counting money.
Tired man counting sheep.
[B] While his savior counts his [F#] blessings.
The hungry man has beans.
There's a million people praying,
raising up their eyes to [B] what turns out to be the [F#] same God.
The same sky and we are slightly scared of death.
[Bm] A little bit afraid.
So we [F#] celebrate everything we can think to celebrate.
We shall sing out loud [B] to keep the [F#] hounds away.
Or mountain lions.
[G#] [F#] Everyone is bored all around.
[Bm] Some things rise up so that others come [F#] down.
If the devil don't dance,
heaven won't shine.
It's a mighty thick haze and it's a getting thin line.
If the faucet is tightened up,
the love [Bm] won't flow.
If the love isn't bright enough,
the corn won't grow.
[F#] If the night isn't dark enough,
the moon won't glow.
[G#] [D#m] Prisons will [B] crumble and governments will fall.
[F#] It's the order of freedom to be preceded by walls.
[D#m] Cause the truth will be worthless [Bm] if no one ever [F#] lies.
So we carry our shame in the interest of pride.
And [D#m] we have all these [B] questions to make us go wrong.
And we [F#] got all this distance to make us come home.
[D#m] As the sun burns, a [B] child learns, [C#m] the tide turns,
[B] the world [C#m] turns.
[F#] Everyone is bored all around.
[B] Some things rise up so that others [F#] come down.
If the devil don't dance,
heaven won't shine.
It's a mighty thick haze and it's a getting thin line.
If the faucet is tightened up,
the love [B] won't flow.
If the love isn't bright enough,
the corn [F#] won't grow.
If the night isn't dark enough,
the moon won't glow.
[G#] [F#]
Thank you.
[N] Peace.
