This is another new song.
It's about a television hero in America.
From the 70s that myself and Lennon and Iggy Pop used to watch in the afternoons.
[N]
Crazy guy and we were [F] very adult and used to love fooling around watching [Ab] this guy Uncle Floyd.
And his song is called [Gm] Slip Away.

Oh they slip [C] away [Eb]
[C]
[F]
once in a time
When [E] Lennon and I could [E] be
[G]
Bones to give it all [F] myself to scream
[Dm]
No one knew what they [Bb] could do
Except for me [C] and you
They slip [Eb] away
Oh [C] they slip [Am] away
Don't forget to keep [F] your hat on

Twinkle twinkle Uncle Floyd
