Formula, Cola, Dollar Draft Marah E G#m There was a time when I didn't talk C#m A I'd look away, or I'd shrug it off G#m A Turn it out or turn it off B Or say something short and soft E G#m Out of school I took a J-O-B C#m A Makin' buttons in a factory G#m A Thinking what does life got in for me? B And I didn't wanna know E G#m In a city full of double deals C#m A My boss would yawn and roll back on his heels G#m A B Like anyone could cop a feel of lady luck E G#m I was made with my brother Bill C#m A Drinking Muskie Moons on top of Laurel Hill G#m A B It's funny now I'd cheek a poison pill to sober up E G#m And no two-bit claim of I'm all right C#m A Is gonna turn around and make it right G#m A So I'm fishing in my pocket for a light B And I'm standin' on the corner on a Saturday night [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/m/marah/87831.html ] (Harmonica solo, same chords) E I seen pigeons flap their filthy wings G#m To a freezing sunset in the west C#m Rain shit down from their haunted perch A In the bells above St. Someone's church G#m The Sexton drinks and dreams in bed A One eye in a line of light B Startled by a ghost he screams his dead wife's name into the night E Which echoes down a cobbled hall G#m Bounces off a gray stone floor C#m Fired down a line of stairs A Where it's silenced by a door G#m Beyond which I am leaning, leaning A Watching cars and dreaming B As steam rose 'round my body like my soul up to the stars E I guess the devil's had his way with town G#m Now that Willie is in the ground C#m And I guess the devil made me this A When he gave me no one I can't resist G#m I got the bill today A Wrote back I moved away B They called me up to say they know that I'm still here E So on the 5th day of the 5th month G#m At 5 o'clock in the dawn C#m I rolled myself in a T-O-P A And jumped out on Highway One G#m With a 400 engine hot as a cremation coffin A And a tailgate bangin' like an airplane wing B I was rollin' on the highway doing it my way whistling "Someday" and singing this song (Repeat chords through end, as Serge sings "I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes...") |
