Start Jamming...
Now the lounge is full of farmers [C] for a 7.30 drop.
[A] Teammates all left before they had to [Bb] buy a round.
When they [F] pull a 50-50 [C] and I've lost again I'll go.
[A] Maybe have one more round worth of snow [Bb] he can grow.
All the [G] championship banners [Bb] going yellow on the wall.
[G] Add my name when it [C] gets [Em] closer to [Bb] last call.
[F] So a hero brings my bottle, [C] hold it up and let it bear.
[A] Figures of two rings battling an [Bb] extra hair.
[F] And I'm peeling off the label, [C] sticky old corner guard.
[A] Dance down the sheet to the tune of hurry, [Bb] hurry hard.
[G] My popcorn squeaks with question, [Bb] wonders why I'm not at home.
Where [G] you wait beside a [D] silent [Bb] telephone.
[F] Doodle [G] circles within [C] [D] circles all [Bb] alone.
Have [G] to stop myself from climbing [Bb] on the table full of empties to [F] yell.
Why, [C]
[Bb] why can't I draw right off to what I want [F] to say?
[C]
[Bb] Why can't I ever stop where I want [G] to stay?
I slide right through the [Bb] day, always [F] throwing hackwood.
Right
[C] [Am]
[Bb]
[F]
[C]
[Am] off, no, never, [F] never, never, [G] ever.
Right off, no never ever, never ever.
Mount Senior, Fawnsville, Winter, [Bb] circa 1963.
[F] Are all staring, [G] [C] glaring,
[Bb] disapprovingly,
From [F] their framing, [C] that old [D]
photograph [Bb] of me.
And [G] I know you're out there waiting,
For [Bb] an answer I can't give you, so tell [F] me,
Why, [C]
[Bb] why can't I draw right off to what I want [F] to say?
[C]
[Bb] Why can't I ever stop when I want [Gm] to stay?
Roar right through our [Bb] years, drift right through our [Gm] months,
[G] Slide right through our [Bb] days, always [F] throwing half-ways.
Right off, no never ever, never ever.
Right off, no never ever, never ever.
[Fm] Right off, no never ever, never [Bb] ever.
Right off.
[N]
