[B] [Em] Let me take you [C] to a
[B] smoky [Em] little dive I was rocking the [D] joint, [G] I was [B] keeping that
[Em] music live
[G] Let me show you [C] a girl in tight [A] jeans
Standing [B] nearby surveying the scene [Em] She had a kind of [B] hungry look [Em] in her eye
[G] Let me confess I thought I'd chanced my hand I asked that girl if she'd like to hang out
with the [Em] band She
[G] turned to me [C] and the look on her face
[A] Said I wasn't just a loser, [B] I wasn't even in the race
She [Em] said, Grandpa, I'll say this slow [B] [Em] so you understand
[Am] Everywhere I'd go, [D] in all the bars [G] I'd see sad old [E] busters with guitars
[Am] Singing out [Gm] their youth, [A] [Em] at least they'd try [Am] With their big guts sagging [D] and their bald
heads shining [G] Singing, hi [D] [E]-ho, silver lining
[Am] They're everywhere and [C] nowhere, [B] baby, [Em] wish they'd die

[Em] Let me tell you that night I was home alone Those cruel words [E] had cut [B] me to [Em] the bone
I
[A] [G] looked across [C] to my CDs, [A] they all just seemed to [B] cough and wheeze
[Em] I was looking at a musical, old folks home I went to the kitchen and turned on my radio
The DJ was playing some kind of golden oldies show
She
[G] said, Hey kids, isn't it great to [A] hear another fab hit [B] from 68?
I [Em] heard a little voice in my head, she said, Oh [E]
no
[Am] Everywhere I'd go, [D] in all the bars [G] I'd see sad old busters [E] with guitars
[Am] Singing out [E] their [Em] youth, at least they'd try [G]
[Am] With their big guts sagging [D] and their bald
heads shining [G] Singing, hi-ho, [E]
silver lining
[Am] They're everywhere and nowhere, [A#]

[G] [Em]
[Am] [Gm]
[G] [E] fell asleep [A] and in my dream [D] I came [Am] across the [G]
strangest thing
[E] There was Buddy, Lennon, [A] George and the King They [D] were strumming guitars, [G]
harmonizing
They were [E] like rock and roll angels [A] sitting on a cloud
They [D] were playing it along, they [G] were playing it loud
They [E] played Stairway to Heaven, [A] knocking on Heaven's door
[D] Then the voice of the Lord [G] said, One, two, three, [Am] four
Everywhere [Em] I'd go, [D] in all the bars [G] I'd see sad old [E] busters with guitars
[Am] Singing out [Gm] their youth, [B] at least [Em] they'd try [G]
[Am] With their big guts sagging [D] and their bald
heads shining [G] Singing, hi [E]-ho, silver lining
[Am] They're everywhere and [C] nowhere, baby, [A] [B] that's no [E] lie
