Start Jamming...
I'd like to do a song with a friend of mine I've known for a long time here and we go
back to the early 70s.
I'd like you to give a warm welcome to our brother Larry [F] Norman.
Larry, would you come [D#] on up?
[D#]
[F#]
[E] [E]
[B]
[C#]
[F#] I got myself some wisdom [D#m] from a leather bag.
I
[B] got myself a savior when I [G#m] took a second look.
[D#m]
[F#] Opened up the pages, [C#]
what did I [A#m] [D#] find?
[B]
Black and white [F#] portrait of [G#m] a king who's a [F#] friend of mine.
[C#] [D#m] [F#]
Funny how when you think you're right, [D#m] everybody else must be wrong.
Oh, they're wrong, man.
[G#m]
[C#] And that's another song.
[D#] [F#] You threw me on that one.
[G#m] I thought I was playing the wrong song.
We have earplugs in, so I didn't even think you'd notice.
[G]
[F#] [G#]
Okay.
Life was filled with guns and war.
[E] Everyone got trampled [B] on the floor.
I wish [C#] we'd all [G#] been ready.
[F#] Children died, the days grew cold.
[E] A piece of bread, goodbye, a [B] bag of gold.
I wish [C#] we'd all [G#] been ready.
[B] There's no time to change your mind.
[E] The sun has come [B] and you've been left [F#] behind.
[E]
[G#m] [B]
[C#]
[F#] Now I'm lost, so you take over.
[E] [E]
There were more [B] verses to it, weren't there?
There used to be.
There used to be.
[A#m] [F#]
[C#] [D#] The [D#m] problem is it didn't have that pretty [G#] thing that you [F#] played there.
A man and wife asleep in bed.
[E] She hears a noise and turns her head.
[B] He's gone.
I wish [D#] we'd all been ready.
[F#] Two men walking up a hill.
[E] One disappears and one's left [B] standing still.
I wish [C#] we'd all been [G#] [C#] ready.
[B] There's no time [F#] to change your mind.
[E] The sun has come [B] and you've been left [F#] behind.
[B]
[E]
[B] [C#]
[F#]
[B]
[G#]
I'm just fiddling.
[E]
[D#m]
[F#] [B]
[F#] Do you know this one?
Meow.
[D#] Meow.
[F#m] [F#]
Meow.
[C#] And there is no finer cat than I am.
There'll be some milk, some for you and some for me.
Life was filled with guns and wars.
[E] Everyone got trampled on [B] the floor.
I wish [C#] we'd all been ready.
[F#] Children died, the days grew cold.
[E] A piece of bread could buy a bag [D#m] of gold.
[G#m]
I wish [D#] we'd all been ready.
[D#m] There's no time to change your [F#m] mind.
[E] How could you have [B] been so blind?
I'll show you later.
The father spoke, [F#] the demons dined.
The sun has come.
[B] And this is right out of the [B] newspapers.
Not today's, but it's coming up.
Don't get left [F#] behind.
[G#]
[D#m] Don't get left [F#] behind.
Behind.
[N] I wish we'd all been ready.
