Sexy music.
There's a dance hall there, where the sick folks go,
[G] Like the olden days, on the Barbary [D] coast.
There's a barefoot child, she's playing [G] in the rain.
[D] You can sell your wares, even if they're [G] hot,
In the great bazaar, or the parking [D] lot,
Cause it takes a while, to know who to [G] blame.
[D] I might have a taste, cause the first one's free,
[G] And the checkout girl's got a thing [D] for me,
And they're both as sweet, as the day [G] is long.
[Em] I don't wanna feel stuck, [E] baby,
I just wanna get drunk, before [D] noon.

[A] [D]
I don't mind my head, when there's room to dream,
[G] Feel like Paul Gauguin, painting breadfruit trees,
[D] In some far off place, where I [G] don't belong.
Tried
[D] to lose myself, in the primitive,
[G] In Yosemite, like John Muir did,
[D] But his eyes were blue, and mine are [G] red and raw.
[D] In the modern world, it's a sight to see,
[G] It's a stimulant, it's pornography,
[D] It takes all my will now, not to turn it [G] off.
[Em] Don't want you to feel sad, [B] baby,
[E] I take everything back, I swear I [D] do,
Cause once all the friends I [A] had, have used [A] me up and [B] left.
Well I [Em] bet you hang around, well I bet you [A] hang around a while,
I [D]
[G]
[G] bet you hang around a while.
