[G] This next song is dedicated to all the spastic guitar players in Cologne.
There must be a club here.
[Am] This [N] is living proof of how much I need the [G] people listening.
[A] Well, listen.
[G] [A] [Em] [D]
[C] [D] [Bm] [D] On the very day I [Em] purchased it, I christened my guitar
[A] At my mom's symphony six string [D] orchestra
In my room I'd practice [Em] late, they'd leave me alone
[A] My mother said, you're nothing yet [G] to make [D] the folks ride on
[Gm] Oh, [F#m]
[D] [Em] I'd finish that applaud
Some [Bm] called [F#m] it muffled laughter, [C] I just figured they were on
So [A] [G] [D] I went up for an encore, [Em] but they'd scream they'd had enough
[A] Maybe I just need a [G] group to [A] help me [D] do my stuff
[G] And so I dream a bass will [D] join me and fill the bottom end
[G] Maybe now [D] some lead guitars, the [E] rain would [A] not sound so thin
[G] I need some drums to set the beat, [D] help me keep [Bm] it tight
[Em] And way back [A] in the [Em] distance, some straight [D] wood style profile
Piano and [G]
[D] the electric shook, [G] it would sound [D] like music
[E] And the music would [A] sound good, [G] and I thought I was stuck with
[D] The same old [Bm] [G] [A] organic slip of [F#m] eight [Em] six string
I'd [C#] [G] do [A] my song [D] Orchestra
[C#] [D] Newenfingers
[G] [C] [D] Eat your goddamn [G] heart out, [D] Eric Clapton
[A]
[G] [Dm] [G] [D]
Shisha, that's all you want, I know all of your stuff
I shot the sheriff late last
[C] [A#] Oh, [F#m] I [D] write love songs for
I write love songs for my favorite girl [Em] and sing them soft and slow
[D] But [A] before I get to finish, she says she [D] has to go
She's nice and says excuse me, [Em] I've got to find a bar
[A] I think I need refreshment [G] before I [D] hear you play guitar
[Am] Oh, [F#m] I sent a demo tape I [Em] made to the record companies
[Bm] Who gave back [F#m] address, I [G] know one came back C [A].O.D.
[D] I'm taking guitar lessons, [Em] but my teacher just took leave
[A] It was something about a breakdown, [G] and D [D].D. gave it free
[Am] And [G] so I dreamed my bass would join me [D] and fill up on her [F#] head
[G] Maybe [D] now some lead [E] guitar would not [A] sound so mad
[G] I need some notes at the [D] beat, [B] and they'll keep me in [Bm] line
[Em] And way back [A] in the distance, some [D] straight wood style profile
[Am] We [G] all play together, [D] like musicians should
[G] And it would [D] sound like music, [E] and the music [A] would sound good
[G] That
[D] same old [Bm] formula, [G] [A] harmonic [Em] symphony, sax [A] string [G] orchestra
[A#] [D] [N]
