[B]
John and the team were getting kind of itchy just to leave the folk music [E] behind.
It's all ended in working for [B] a penny, trying to get a fish on the line.
[F#] In a coffeehouse, Sebastian sat, [E] and after every number they had [B] left.
McQueen and McQuiett is just a getting hired in L.A.,. you [E] know where that's at. And no [D] one's getting fat except [B] Mama Cat. It's all the standing, you know there aren't many who can sing a song the way that you do. Let's [E] go south, the pennies and dolly, don't you think [B] that I wish I was like you. [F#] It's all many and Sebastian sat, and after [E] every number they had [B] left. McQueen and McQuiett is just a getting hired in L.A.,. you [E] know where that's at. And no one's [D] getting fat except [B] Mama Cat. When Cass was a sophomore, planned to go to Swarthmore, but she changed her mind one day. [E] Standing on the turnpike, come out to [B] hitchhike, take her to New York right away. [F#] When Jenny met Cass, he gave the love of [E] all John and Saul. And that was the [B] muck, while McQueen and McQuiett couldn't get no higher, but that's what they were [E] aiming at. And no one's getting [D] fat except [B] Mama Cat. Mug runs, high jumps, low slumps, big bumps, don't you work as hard as you play. [E] Make up, break up, everything shake [B] up, I guess it had to be that way. [F#] Sebastian and Saul from Booth Hall, [E] Michelle, John, and Denny getting very truthful. [B] McQueen and McQuiett is just a catching fire in L.A., you know where [E] that's at. And no one's getting [D] fat except [B] Mama Cat. Do do do do do do do do, ropes busting, disgusting, Amy's can't be trusted, and Mitchie wants to go to see. [E] Cast and make it, she said we'll have [B] to fake it, we knew she'd come eventually [F#] She's dreaming on a merry-go-round, it's best [E] fun Exploring, but keeping up [B] the game is hard Love is good vibrations, and our imaginations can't go on [E] indefinitely And California [Bm] dreaming is [B] becoming our reality [E] [D] Becoming our [B] reality [E] [D] [B]
