Your rating:


Capo on 2nd fret



[C-G-Dmin-G] Intro: play 3 times (1 harmonica + 2 guitar)



 Well [C] everybody here, [G] seems to like to laugh



[Dmin] Look at Johnny jivin'  across [G] the floor



He [C] can play the fool and [G] make a few mistakes, 



[Dmin] But all the same he'll never be [G] a bore



 I'm [C] glad to be so young [G] talkin' with my tongue



[D min] Glad to be so careless in [G] my way



[C] Glad to take a chance [G] and play against the odds



[D min] Glad to be so crazy in [G] my day



 



Well [C] I'm goin' [C/B] down to [A min] Laurel



[G] It's a dirty stinkin' town [Am] yea



[F] But me I know [G] exactly what I'm going to [Am] find 



[C-G-A min] [D min] Little girl [E min] I'm goin' to see



[Am] She is a fool for [C] lovin' me



[F] But she's in love [G] and love's a funny state of [C] mind 



Yes it is (on second chorus)



Well [C] what was that you said [G] when you had a tear



[D min]Rolling down your cheek  the [G] other night



[C] I couldn't catch it all [G] there's something going wrong



[D min]I hope you got it straightened out [G] alright



[C] Everything's so loud [G]and everything's so fast



[D min]I here your brother married once [G]again



Yea [C] best of luck and all and [G] try to have some fun



[D min]They tell me this great life can always [G] end



CHORUS



harmonica theme again: [C-G-D min-G]



I'm [C] smilin' from a car, I'm [G] goin' for a drive



[D min]Feel the whistle blowin' breeze gone [G]flying by



[C] Mirror's on the moon, [G] echo in the sun



[D min] See just a touch of madness [G]in my eye



[C]Please don't mention rain, [G] please don't talk of trains



[D min]Please don't mention buildings burning [G]down



[C]Everybody here seems [G] to like to laugh



[D min] Either step in time or just don't hang [G] around



CHORUS



harmonica theme again: [C-G-D min-G]
