"Folk Singer"(Benson/Falkner)
From "Lapalco" (2002)
Intro: G | C | X4
G C
Like a folk-singer's song I'm moving on
G C
and I'm not the kinda man that acts very strong
G C
when the girls are looking on,
G C
when the girls (when the girls are looking on)
If you tied my hands and put chains on my feet
I can picture myself walking down any street
telling people that I meet
"Psst! looks like rain to me (looks like rain to me)
Bridge:
G F Bb C
every single day at eleven,I'm home in bed in sleep heaven,
G F Bb C
Alone 'Cos my girl leaves at seven,ain't got time for my bed-in,
G F Bb C
she says "Stop pretending,you're not John Lennon!"
CHORUS:
G5 C5 G5 C5
Will I ever get over this, having tasted your lips with a kiss?
G5 Cm G5
You can cross me off your list,take these cuffs
F5 G5
from off my wrists,and drop your fists
Intro X1
As soon as I'm well I'm gonna leave my house
become more of a man and less like a mouse
drive my car down south to the Mississippi's mouth
to the Gulf Of Mexico's mouth I'll be soused
Every girl I made in the shade of esplanade
I saved In a song that I play when I'm afraid
of a full scale air raid from the choices that I made
BRIDGE,CHORUS
da da da da de da de da ....
no matter how much you take of each song that i make
Im not fragile, I don't break and I'm down at the lake
and I hope someday you'll have it made
with all that money that you make
It was fun while it lasted but then it was blasted
right out of the water and into Fantastic
now he feels shafted and she's already past it
(she's like elastic and he's just so spastic)
BRIDGE X1,CHORUS X3
