[Gm] [G]
I was an eight year old kid, out in the [Gm]
southern California, and I saw the folk song, [Fm] Sir Douglas
Plutet, [Gm] on the Shindig [Em] show.
[Bb] I was an eight year old boy, I saw that, and I saw [Ab] Doug, and I told [B] myself, when I grow
up, I want [Bb] to be Doug Song.
[G] [N] And through all the years, all the records from Honky Blues, [E] he's about a million Honky
Blues all through the Texas [Eb] Tornadoes.
[Ab] I was a big fan, he was a [Abm] big influence on so many people, and [Ab] I never got to be Doug
Song, but tonight I get to pretend for a few [Abm] minutes with the family.
[Gm] So this is a great thrill, [Abm] and [G] uh, [Gm] I don't know what else to say.
