[A] [D] I played the Hollywood Pantages Theater a year or so ago and Beck opened the show for me.
So I listened to him
[E] Behind [F] backstage [D] and I was so impressed with the way he could do Appalachian music, you know, hillbilly
he's really good at it and then then they said in his own song songs and
I especially like robo.
It sounded like something I might have written or might have done in the 60s
You know, I was going through some kind of weird times
I don't know a lot of his music, but I knew that one and that one worked.
I think really [A] well
[E] [G]
Roll me to [D] the shore
[A]
she
[E] Don't
[G] Wanna be my friend no [D] more
Actually, I wrote [A] the song
If there's [D] this country [Em] club [Am] and I think it's called the Palomino, [D] and it's somewhat famous
and there was a the [Bm] house country band was playing there [A] and
[D]
The pedal steel player I [G] started talking to him and I made friends with him and I asked him
If he would be interested in recording
with me [E] because at the time [F#] I was recording outside of town and
[Em]
And
He said yeah sure
so
[A] But two days later
Getting ready.
I was gonna go pick him up take him down in the studio
And I realized I didn't have any any country songs
On hand, you know, I didn't have any pedal steel worthy songs
so
I just quickly [A] wrote this the song to before
So I would show up and it wouldn't be empty-handed in an hour or so you wrote the song in a couple hours
No, that was very fast because I didn't have much [D] time.
I had to go pick the guy out
[A]
[E] [D] [G]
Roll me to the [D] shore
[A]
she
[E] [G] Don't wanna be my friend [D] no more
She [A] dug a [E] hole [A]
in [G] the bottom of [D] my soul
she
[E]
Don't [G] wanna be my friend no [D] more
[C] Pick me [G] up
Give me [D] some alcohol in [G] your child Oh
[D]
Nobody [C] I'll [G] be home
With [D] the gasoline
You'll [Am] be strange
[C] You'll be [D] far away
What's not much without the steel [E] guitar
