Mother Hips - Transplant Song
One of Tim’s lesser known solo project songs. California Soul at its best !
I've been waiting years for someone else to tab it... Then I found Tim playing
it on Youtube, easy after that. -Jack
(walk-up to) (through-out song)
D A Em G
I've been a transplant too
D A G D
Anyways I'm not mad at you
D A Em G
But I get compared with all of you making a thousand bucks a day
D A G D
My head's all wrong to live here any longer anyway
D A Em G
I should've been born in North California
D A G D
Northern California fifty wintertimes ago
D A Em G
Ohh ohooh Oooohoh oh oh
D A G D
Ohh ohooh Oooohoh oh oh
Note: When Tim plays it acoustic, he does a walk-down G to the F#m,
he doesn’t seem to play the full bar chord.
G F#m D A
I am moving away from the place I am from
G F#m D A
Because I don't like to squeeze where I don't fit in
G F#m D G
It's my birthright to stay but I'm leaving anyway
D A G D
North country take me in
Walk-up and down mini solo.
D A Em G
My mother's always telling me that I don't work enough
D A G D
She says, "You don't work enough" but it isn't true
D A Em G
It just burns me up to think she thinks that I don't work enough
D A G D
No one could see the kind of work I do
D A Em G
I am a native in a stranger land
D A G D
There's a stranger in my box of sand
D A Em G
I would gladly accept him, extending my hand
D A G D
But he looks at me and he doesn't understand
G F#m D A
I am moving away from the place I am from
G F#m D A
Because I don't like to squeeze where I don't fit in
G F#m D G
It's my birthright to stay but I'm leaving anyway
D A G D
North country take me in
D A G (hammer on A string) D
North country take me in !!
