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!
Tuning: Standard
No Capo
So the picking alone gets kinda awkward if you dont have anything but the guitar and your vocals,
so I wrote these chords below to be strummed alongside the rhythmic parts of the song.
Tune your high E string down to a D and play it open if you want to, otherwise just avoid the high E.
The brackets () mark the strings you can add when strumming

G Cmaj7
So we paint a red room white
D
And we move all night
Em F#m G Cmaj7
To the north side
G Cmaj7 D
And I always thought that North Street felt like a seaside town
Cmaj7
With it's open skies
Em F#m G Cmaj7
And Ray's is selling oysters by the pound
D
They're an aphrodisiac
Cmaj7
So if we needed that
Em F#m G Cmaj7
We'd serve 'em on the half shell and slurp 'em down.
G Cmaj7
But we move like Roman soldiers
G Cmaj7
Into the wilds of the psyche
G Cmaj7
To fix under a cancelling star
G Cmaj7
Hermes and Aphrodite
G Cmaj7
Sippin' on the sunlit juice
Em5 D5 Cmaj7
Haven't thought much about that in awhile
D5
Sippin' on the sunlit juice
Bm5 G
Haven't thought much about that in awhile
F#m G
So I went and got a buzz cut
F#m G
Two shots in the ruby red
F#m G
She's got willow boughs in the bed of her truck
F#m G
She'll never drink again
G Cmaj7 D
I saw flamingos in the seat-back screen
Cmaj7
Of the A32214
Em F#m G Cmaj7
As I flew from San Diego to the moon
D
And she's an aphrodisiac
Cmaj7
So if we needed that
Em F#m G Cmaj7
We could take a little moonbeam in a spoon
G Cmaj7
And we move like Roman soldiers
G Cmaj7
Into the wilds of the psyche
G Cmaj7
To fix under a cancelling star
G Cmaj7
Hermes and Aphrodite
G Cmaj7
Sippin' on the sunlit juice
Em5 D5 Cmaj7
