[C] [A#] [Dm] [G] [C]
He complained [F] and you criticized
feel I'm no money, baby, in [F] your [C] eyes
me feel like [F] giving up, [G] yeah
on to your next record, so, a studio album, we've been [G] with you for four years, when's the next one coming out then?
and some of Fat Stomano's old band, and I was like in heaven
got four tracks done, [C] and then I left there and the oil came gushing out of the ground
I was in the middle of making an album
He complained [F] and you criticized

He complained [F] and you criticized
[C] _ I feel I'm no money, baby, in [F] your [C] eyes
You make me feel like [F] giving up, [G] yeah
[C] Well then, on to your next record, so, a studio album, we've been [G] with you for four years, when's the next one coming out then?
I started on it already, I went down to New Orleans and _ _ some of Fat Stomano's old band, and I was like in heaven
We _ _ got four tracks done, [C] and then I left there and _ the _ oil came gushing out of the ground
_ And it was the same with the last record, it was Katrina, I was in the middle of making an album
And then I went, God, Katrina is happening, we have to make a record _ about _ what's happening to the people there _
So, it's not just you decide to go into the studio and make a record, it's timing
And at my age, there's no point in hurrying to get an album out
I don't have a record company, there isn't any record companies as far as I'm concerned
Not for my genre anyway, which is no genre at all, this is my problem
I can't be pigeonholed, because I just sang, so any song I say I like it, I'll sing it
And the business end of it goes, oh, where does this belong? _ _
_ _ [E] It belongs on [D] my record, that's it

_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [Gm] The audiences want [F] the old stuff, [Gm] they're so [C] nostalgic bound
They want to hear the songs that I recorded in the 60s
So, _ [A] I do them, but I'm going to put my own mark on them
Because I had guys that I really respected in the past, like Jimmy Witherspoon
Told me, never sing the same song twice
_ And that's the jazz in me, I was a jazzer before I was a rocker
And _ I've always been trying to get back
And maybe next year, there'll be horns in the band
Maybe next year, I won't sing the animal songs
Maybe next year, I'll be just saying, this is me, take it for what it is
But then again, I like the money _ _
We all like to make money, you know
And as long as you're not _ constantly selling your soul to the devil
As long as you know that that deal with the devil is over with
[Bm] And the songs that I sing from the Animals catalogue, they're good songs _
They're more than songs, they're anthems for people
I [C#m] still feel your fingertips [A] upon my forehead
Begging [G] me to stay, don't run away, [F#] yeah
Stephen Hartley, baby
[D] _ I'm just a soul [Bm] whose intentions you'll
He complained [F] and you criticized
