Biografía:
El veterano vocalista de rock Burton Cummings saltó a la fama con la banda canadiense The Guess Who, la canción "These Eyes" es uno de los clásicos inmortales de la música popular.
.
En 1964, The Guess Who le probó a la juventud del Canadá que sus grupos podían tener canciones exitosas, no solo en su país, también en todo el mundo. En aquel entonces pensar que en medio de la invasión británica "Shakin' All Over" pudiera igualar a los Beatles o a la respuesta norteamericana vestidos de Beach Boys era inconcebible.

[Verse 1]
D Bm7 Em Em7
Goodnight everybody who came around
A A7 D
And thank you now for sittin' down
D F#m7 G Gm
Some day soon we'll all be old and grey
D A D A
But we won't give a shit
[Verse 2]
D Bm7 Em Em7
Some of us still do our drugs each day
A A7 D
Smoke and drink our cares away
D F#m7 G Gm
Tryin' to remember a happier day
D A D A
Oh boy oh boy
[Verse 3]
D Bm7 Em Em7
Some of us got carried away
A A7 D
Did too much of that powder each day
D F#m7 G Gm
Then we finally had to say
D A D A
I'd rather have you
[Verse 4]
D Bm7 Em Em7
Some of us put the booze away
A A7 D
Now we don't drink every day
D F#m7 G Gm
And we remember what we say
D A D A
We put the booze away
[Verse 5]
D Bm7 Em Em7
Some of us put the coke away
A A7 D
Now we don't stay up till the following day
D F#m7 G Gm
We don't let our nose get in our way
D A D A
Now that we put the coke away
[Verse 6]
D Bm7 Em Em7
Some of us put the valium away
A A7 D
Now we don't do the dishes seven times a day
D F#m7 G Gm
Now when it's bedtime we just say
D A D A
I think I'll go lie down
[Verse 7]
D Bm7 Em Em7
Some of us put the speed away
A A7 D
Now we don't rap our lives away
D F#m7 G Gm
Now we don't smoke all day
D A D A
We put the speed away
[Verse 8]
D Bm7 Em Em7
But we'll never put our grass away
A A7 D
Fill our lungs good every day
D F#m7 G Gm
That's how I am able to say
D A D A
Welcome here today
[Verse 9]
D Bm7 Em Em7
Some of us put our brains away
A A7 D
Now we got nothin' left to say
D F#m7 G Gm
But just like children we'll play and play
D A D A
'Cause we put our brains away
[Verse 10]
D Bm7 Em Em7
Some of us pack the food away
A A7 D
Waist size goin' up almost every day
D F#m7 G Gm
Another dessert is on the way
D A D A
Watch me put it away
[Verse 11]
D Bm7 Em Em7
I knew some guys who put the junk away
A A7 D
Tire tracks most every day
D F#m7 G Gm
A leather belt got in their way
D A D A
So they put that junk away
[Verse 12]
D Bm7 Em Em7
A friend of mine put the booze away
A A7 D
Last week it was one year to the day
D F#m7 G Gm
His son won't see him piss his life away
D A D A
Now that he's put that booze away
[Verse 13]
D Bm7 Em Em7
I should put myself away
A A7 D
Find some games that I can play
D F#m7 G Gm
Open a restaurant so far away
D A D A
Some day
[Verse 14]
D Bm7 Em Em7
I sit here and sing in my studio
A A7 D
Watch the people come and go
D F#m7 G Gm
Tell me 'bout things that I don't know
D A D A
In my studio
[Verse 15]
D Bm7 Em Em7
The lights in here are soft and green
A A7 D
Prettiest things that you've ever seen
D F#m7 G Gm
Don't you get a ruptured spleen
D A D A
The lights are soft and green
[Verse 16]
D Bm7 Em Em7
Oh I love my record collection
A A7 D
And I watched the American election
D F#m7 G Gm
No time now for dull reflection
D A D A
I watched the American election
[Verse 17]
D Bm7 Em Em7
I was in a bad condition
A A7 D
Thought I'd seen an apparition
D F#m7 G Gm
All it was was the electrician
D A D A
Rub his lamp and wishin'
[Verse 18]
D Bm7 Em Em7
Grabbed my rod and I went fishin'
A A7 D
Then I watched Harper's delicate condition
D F#m7 G Gm
Then I killed my electrician
D A D A
'Cause he didn't want to go fishin'
[Verse 19]
D Bm7 Em Em7
All the farmers pray for rain
A A7 D
Beatles records go like rain
D F#m7 G Gm
Cascade singin' 'bout the rhythm of the rain
D A D A
And then there's no rain
[Verse 20]
D Bm7 Em Em7
Community clubs were my forte once
A A7 D
Played for nothin' like a dunce
D F#m7 G Gm
Yeah, they screwed me once -- ONCE!
D A D A
Now I'm not a dunce
[Verse 21]
D Bm7 Em Em7
I gotta go 'cause I've stayed too long
A A7 D
Luxton School prompted this old song
D F#m7 G Gm
The reverb helps spur my head along
D A D
When I make up new songs
D
