[E]
[B] [E] [Gb]
Alright, we're back here at VH1's big backyard barbecue with John [Gb] Mellencamp in concert.
I'm standing out with the VH1 lifeguards [D] and I have to ask you a couple of safety questions.
First of all, any casualties in the pool yet?
Nope, [G] not yet.
Alright, anybody go in the pool before eating after 45 minutes?
Nope, not at all.
Everything's safe.
Okay, we're all okay.
Everything's fine here at the pool.
Let's go back to John Mellencamp in concert.
On a hang of 809, me and your Scotty partners
Told him from ECO that black market shoes
[Am] This loud Cuban band is [D] crucifying [G] John
No
[Am] one wants to be lonely, no one wants [G] to sing the blues
She [G] puts like a parrot on his tuxedo shoulder
Gratis, what you doing here?
She could be dancing with me
She [Am] stirs the ice in a glass [D] with her [G] elegant feet
I [Am] wanna be what she's drinking, [D] yes, just [G] want to be
[C] I [G] saw you first, [Am] I'm the first one [G] to die
[C] Yes, I saw [G] you first, don't [Am] ever give me [G] the right
To [C] move [G] on out of your heart
[Am] [A]
Everyone's looking at [G] [G]
a bone-filled John
In a buried reversal
Gypsy Scotty's driving his big long yellow car
She
[Am] soars like a bird [D] over his [G] shoulder
She [Am] whispers in his ear, boy, you [G] are my star
I [C]
[G] saw you first, [A] I'm the first one [G] to die
[C] Yes, I saw [G] you first, don't [Am] ever give me [G] the right
[C] To move on [G] out of your heart
[Am] Everyone's [D] looking [D] at a
[G]
[C] [G] [C]
[G]
bone-filled John
Gypsy Scotty's singing, [D] [G]
Brady was playing
[G] She left her shoes out in the back
[Am] He tells me a story [C] about some girl named Norse in [G] Kentucky
[Am] He just made that story up, there ain't no girl like that
[G]
[C] I saw [G] you first, [Am] I'm the first one [G] to die
[C] Yes, I saw [G] you first, don't [Am] ever give me [G] the right
[C] To move on [G] out of your heart
[Am] [D] Everyone's looking at a [G]
bone-filled John
I saw you first, [D] I [G] saw you first
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
