Chords for Jack Tempchin - Slow Dancing - Anthology - July 2010

And we're sat down in the middle of Jack Pym's stand.
Jack, take it away.
Alright, thanks again.
_ _ [N] Well, I was, uh, I was here back in what they call the 60s.
And that's when I wrote this song.
I had, I had everything in the 60s.
And, uh, I had a, uh, Volkswagen bus.
And a, and a girlfriend.
And, uh, I put the girlfriend in the Volkswagen bus.
Bam.
I had it all.
And I wrote this song for her right in 1972.
Which was, of course, [G] right in the middle of the 60s. _
As you guys know who were there, uh, the 60s, 72 was probably the best year of the Sootskies.
_ _ So she's [E] still with me, and, uh, here's the song I wrote for her.

_ [G] _
Shadows dancing all across the [F#] wall.
