Joel Plaskett
Aright/Ok
Park Avenue Sobriety Test
Standard tuning
Nice and simple song with just two chord progressions. Listen to the song for the strum pattern and timing
Joel adds some embellishments between chords to keep things interesting.
Verse:
G C G
You could cry wolf or cry me a river
C G
Knock on my door with a message to deliver
C G F
Jameson's whiskey is hard on my liver
Em D G
Tell me somethin' I don't know
G C G
I close my eyes, asleep on a pillow
C G
When someone dies, I weep like a willow
C G F
Blow 'em a kiss and say bye-bye friend
Em D G
You're never coming back again
Chorus:
C
But that's alright that's OK
G
If you're still standing that's the price you pay
Em Bm
When you're gone you don't come back
C D
So you roll like a train on a one way track
Verse:
G C G
I lost my way when I lost my love
C G
Couldn't make sense of the stars above
C G F
She's the little dipper that I've been thinkin' of
Em D G
And she's never comin' back again
G C G
When she said goodbye the words they came quick
C G
She spit 'em out fast and I felt so sick
C G F
Now there ain't nothin' magic in this magic trick
Em D G
Cause she's never comin' back again
Chorus:
C
But that's alright that's OK
G
She never really knew me anyway
Em Bm
She taped two regrets to my microphone stand
C D
Said you cant hold the hand of a rock'n'roll man
Verse:
G C G
For very long its like a blonde in the bleachers
C G
A Joni Mitchell song comin' outta my speakers
C G F
Goin' to the shop for a new pair of sneakers
Em D G
Then Im gonna take a walk.
Let's rock
(Instrumental, same chords as the Verse)
Verse:
G C G
Well my sneakers wore out and my guitar broke
C G
Sometimes life puts a stick in your spokes
C G F
Everybody thinks that I'm makin' a joke
Em D G
But I'm tellin' it like it is
G C G
I'm a hangin' from the branches of my family tree
C G
I know I look like my daddy, daddy looks like me
C G F
Halifax Nova Scotia is the land of the free
Em D G
I don't care what the anthem says
Chorus:
C
Yeah that's alright that's OK
G
You'll be starin' at your phone till your hair goes grey
Em Bm
Once in a while it's bound to ring
C D
Chuck Berry sings my Ding-a-ling-a-lingggg
Verse:
G C G
I lost my map when I lost my phone
C G
Gotta get on the road gotta get gone
C G F
Ain't gotta a clue how to get back home
Em D G
I guess I better ask at the bar
au revoir
