Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
When they were on acoustic tour, Paul used a capo on the fifth fret, playing slowly on
the d, g, b and high e strings....
INTRO: G G G G
G
there's not a lot that you can do in this van
G
With these fine young boys.
G
Stuck in confined spaces
G
The pram has only so many toys.
G Em D Cadd9
G Cadd9
You fall in love with girls in hi-viz jackets
G Cadd9
Girls in their golf carts.
G Cadd9
Well laid tans and sunglasses
G Cadd9
But it's over before it starts.
G D
In a field in texas
G D
Under the waco rain
G D
Pulled from the deepening quicksand
G D
By an angel and his chain.
PRECHORUS:
G
I'll be your tongue.
Em
You'll be my groove.
Cadd9
I'll be your positive.
D
You'll be my negative.
G
I'll be your tongue.
Em
You'll be my groove.
Cadd9
I'll drive the get away
D
And you bring the glue.
CHROUS:
G
I'll be your velcro.
Em
I'll be your velcro.
Cadd9
I'll be your Velcro.
D
I'll be your velcro.
G
I'll be your velcro.
Em D
I'll be your velcro.
REPEATS THE SAME CHORDS OVER AGAIN FOR THE NEXT VERSES & CHORUSES
Now we're clacking at computers
In the sickly light they throw.
All jonesing for wi-fi
So we can steal more tv shows.
Watching a 6 year old on youtube
Playing drums to billie jean.
Now this is the stuff that binds us
This and all those dairy creams.
I'll be your tongue.
You'll be my groove.
I'll be your positive.
You'll be my negative.
I'll be your tongue.
You'll be my groove.
I'll drive the get away.
And you bring the glue.
I'll be your velcro.
I'll be your velcro.
I'll be your velcro.
I'll be your velcro.
I'll be your velcro.
I'll be your velcro.
I'll be your velcro.
We're heading home airport screening
Man has his rubber gloves on.
He says there's explosive residue on the strings of my guitar?
Well that will be six weeks of sweat now
In a pop-rock combo.
Why don't you come and join us?
You can take all the solos?
I'll be your tongue.
You'll be my groove.
I'll be your positive.
You'll be my negative.
I'll be your tongue.
You'll be my groove.
I'll drive the get away
And you bring the glue.
I'll be your velcro.
