I guess I tried to show you _ how
_ I'd take the crowd with my guitar
_ _ [Ab] _
And businessmen would clap their _ hands
And clip another fat cigar
_ [A] And _ publishers would spread the _ news
And print my music _ far and _ [B] wide
_ All the kids who played the blues
[A]
Would learn my licks [Db] with a bottle neck slide
[Gb] _ _ _ _ _
_ Now _ _ _ _ _ _ it seems the barrels _ burst
_ Though you know there was a _ [Ab] time _
Love songs gathered in my _ head
_ Old tree in every _ _ [A] line
Strong men strove to hold the _ doors
With my friends I passed that _ _ [B] age
People stomped on dirty _ floors
[A] Before I trod [Db] up [Abm] to most [Gb] dead _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ graves _ _ _ _

_ _ _ [Gb] _ _ [E] Bangleman's the [Eb] son of [D] [Gb] Paul
He [E] may come [Gb]
sometimes to slay
But [E] I'm alive [Eb] for even [D] [Gb] more
The [E] really good that's [F] hard [D] to [Ab] mend
_ _ [G] [Gb] The [F] temperament is now a _ [Ab] goon
His [Gb] name is Rudy [G] in the 35
[Eb] _ [A] _ I say [G] my [Gbm] daddy's high [Ab] as _ [A] stone
He's happy [G] now [Ab] but the only [Eb] one that [E] lies

_ _ _ _ _ [Gbm] _ like the way you look at me
I like what you do down there in pie
I took my friends and giggled ya
You screwed my ship, we mixed that [Eb] [Ab] pie
[Gb] I [Abm] like the way the music goes
[Ab] _ You guys [B] are gonna be right
_ [Gb] I like the way it moves my toes
Tell you when you wanna go, I got no [E] knife _ _
