Guitar Man

(início)

 Intro:

               C#7
Well I quit my job down at the car wash
I left my momma a goodbye note
By sundown I’d left Kingston
With my guitar under my coat
              F#7
I hitch-hiked all the way down to Memphis
Got a room at the Y.M.C.A.
        C#7
For the next three weeks I went a hauntin’ them night clubs
Lookin’ for a place a play
       G#7
Well I thought my pickin’ would set 'em on fire
    F#7 (hold)                      C#7
But nobody wanted to hire a guitar man

B|– 8s9  9  9  9  - 8  8  7  6
G|– 9s10 10 10 10 – 9  9  6  6

                    C#7
Well I nearly 'bout starved to death down in Memphis
I run outta money and luck
So I bummed me a ride down to Macon, Georgia
On a overloaded poultry truck
             F#7
I thumbed on down to Panama City
Started pickin’ out some of them all-night bars
C#7
Hopin’ I could make myself a dollar
Makin’ music on my guitar
          G#7
I got the same old story at them all night piers
      F#7 (hold)
There ain’t no room around here for a guitar man
*spoken* We don’t need no guitar man, son
     F#7
So I slept in the hobo jungles
I bummed a thousand miles of track
      C#7
Til I found myself in Mobile, Alabama
In a club they call “Big Jack’s”
         F#7
A little four piece band was jammin’
So I took my guitar and I sat in
  D#7
I showed 'em what a band would sound like
       G#7
with a swingin’ little guitar man
*spoken* Show 'em son

So if you ever take a trip down to the ocean
Find yourself down around Mobile
Well make it out to a club called “Jack’s”
If you got a little time to kill
     F#7
Just follow that crowd of people
You’ll wind up out on his dance floor
C#7
Diggin’ the finest little five piece group
Up and down the Gulf of Mexico
    G#7
And guess who’s leadin’ that five piece band
F#7 (hold)
Wouldn’t you know it’s that swingin’ little guitar man
