The Free Electric Band - Albert Hammond
[Verse 1]
C G
My father is a doctor, he's a family man
C G
My mother works for charity whenever she can
C G
They're both good clean Americans who abide by the law
C G
They both stick up for liberty and they both support the war.
C7 F G C
My happiness was paid for when they laid their money down
C7 F G C
For summers in a summercamp and winters in the town
G F C G
My future in the system was talked about and planned
C F G C
But I gave it up for music and the Free Electric Band.
[Verse 2]
C G
I went to school in handwashed shirts with neatly oiled hair
C G
And the school was big and newly built and filled with light and air
C G
And the teacher taught us values that we had to learn to keep
C G
And they clipped the ear of many idle kid who went to sleep.
C F G C
Till my father organised for me a college in the east
C F G C
But I went to California for the sunshine and the beach
C F G C
My parents and my lecturers could never understand
N.C C G
Why I gave it up for music and the Free electric band.
[Bridge]
F C G C
Well they used to sit and speculate upon their son's career
F C G C
A lawyer or a docter or a civil engineer
F C G
Just give me bread and water, put a guitar in my hand
C F G C
'Cos all I need is music and the Free Electric Band.
[Verse 3]
C G
My father sent me money and I spent it very fast
C G
On a girl I met in Berkley in a social science class
C G
Yes and we learned about her body but her mind we did not know
C G
Until deep routed attitudes and morals began to show
C F G C
She wanted to get married even though she never said
C F G C
And I knew her well enough by now to see inside her head
C F G C
She'd settle for suburbia and a little patch of land
N.C C G
So I gave her up for music and the Free Electric Band.
[Outro]
C G
Oooh the Free Electric Band.
C G
shaladah badup dup dee dee dee with Free Electric Band.
C G
shaladah badup dup dee dee dee with Free Electric Band.
