Start Jamming...
[E]
We come and stay in the street,
[G] Gonna hang a [A] fire in the meat,
[B] Doin' our beginner act,
[E] Well I'm alone,
[G] Like Eden as I [A] act,
I spent a year,
My time was through,
[B] But my time was [E] not,
I hear him in the back,
[F#m] [G] He's lookin' for a [A] match or gown,
He wants money check,
[B] Oh we can advance that way now,
I'm on [E]
a train,
[G] A drummin' head [A] that's in pain,
Be a lover,
That's every [B] year,
That's what [E] I wanna say,
Well I keep on [B] runnin', jumpin',
Keepin' farmers [A] out on my bad neighbor's dogs,
[B] Cryin' cootie billy silly,
With his carny car,
[A] Spillin' air,
Left me and I got [E] a
[B] high inside,
And Santa [E] McEwen's [A] dyin',
No one's gonna protect our town,
[B] Cootie billy silly,
With his carny car,
[A] Spillin' air,
Just want [G] you to share [E] a pound,
Rich old man standing in the street,
Now [G] I hangin' up and [A] ready,
All [B] day man,
There's nowhere to hide,
[E]
[G] I'm [A]
a [B] rest in peace,
For the life [E] of me,
I'm [B] on a train,
A drummin' head that's in pain,
Be a [A] lover,
That's every year,
[Am] [C#m] [B]
That's [A] what I wanna say,
