[E] [A#] Tonight is gonna be tonight.
[C] Let's just take a minute here and introduce ourselves to you.
We'll get right back to work.
Some of you folks who already know,
we recognize you from other hit and run missions here in town,
but sat here to my left playing keyboards,
acoustic guitar, percussion, [E] harmonica,
singing the high stuff,
[N] reading the babies, Steve Gunner.
On [Em]
the other side of the stage,
if you don't already know him,
you just wait a few minutes.
[N] Play a monster left-handed lead guitar from the Cars,
Elliot Easton.
Right here in the center,
rhythm guitar and the lead vocals.
He's wearing big boots,
because the [B] Lord gave him big feet.
[N] When he puts on gloves, they're big ones,
because the Lord gave him big hands.
He gave him huge nuts, a big heart, even bigger voice.
Johnny Chopsaw Tristeo.
[C#] [F] Oh, oh, [Am] [D] oh.
[B] All right,
[N] now comes the easy part.
Seated at the drums.
I've known him for over 42 years now.
This man rocks.
One other thing about him is that he's never gonna grow up.
Let's get him down here to explain that to you.
Give a big original, original, original credence welcome.
My pal, Doug Cosmo [G] Clifford.
[Am] [B] [Bm]
[F] [N] House of Blues, how you do?
Well, here we go.
It's another misnomer brought on upon me
by my old pal of 42 years, Mr.
Stew Cook.
And this is what he does to me every time, you know,
he says I'm never gonna grow up and so forth.
There's a hint of truth there, actually.
Just had my 55th birthday and,
so time is running out, you know.
If I'm gonna grow up, I better do it
within the next 55 years, I guess.
But actually, I'm only 12 hours older than Stewie,
so he's right behind me there.
But back to my sort of description
of my particular fetish,
it's really just being young at heart.
Just, you know, if you're young at heart,
young in your mind, hey, you can rock and roll forever.
That being said, now it is time for me
to play MC for my old pal.
He's over there working vigorously
on his amplifier and his bass guitar, a true professional.
Ladies and gentlemen, it is my pleasure
to present to you original bass guitarist
with Creedence Clearwater Revival, my pal, Stew Cook!
