F
I took a walk down to Freddy's Bar
A#
While my wife and kid were asleep
C
I used to go there almost every night
F
When I was young and free
F
Not that I'm unfairly constrained
A#
Held against my will
C
But this is back when it didn't matter
F
What time I stayed out until
F A#
Now it matters, because my son gets me up at 5am each day
C F
And you don't argue with someone who's got their finger in your eye
F
Freddy's has a backroom
A#
To play music in, or to listen
C F
Buzzers on the wall beneath icing thick paint that dates back to prohibition
F A#
Tin ceilings bear that wedding cake pattern that the stage lights interrupt
C F
Pair of TV's playing day-long video collages that Donald dreamed up
F
Donald runs the place
A#
He gave me a shot on the way in the other night
C
He always does,and he always did
F
It's what makes Freddy's feel right
F A#
Whenever I'm on the fence, about whether that walk is just too far
C
I think about what night it is
F
And whether it's Donald's night at the bar
F
When they move the pool tables out of the way
A#
And the TV's lose their glow
C
They start playing music in Freddy's Backroom
F
And the people start to show
F
You could be a sharp backup singer
A#
Who smells like coconut
C
Or avant-garde Jersey Jazz trio
F
Who by day smells like Pizza Hut
F A#
Everything outta that back room sounds like its coming out of an old tube radio
C
Either out by the curb or by the kitchen sink
F
And mean to play what Freddy's got
F
My favorite record cover, or one of em, anyway,
A#
Is Jerry Jeff Walker
C
"It's a Good Night for Singin"
F
And the Backroom sorta reminds me of that cover
F
You got people laughing, people dancing
A#
People with funny hats
C
Some in denim, some in leather
F
Or Fort Park Boy-high-low aristocrats(?)
F
Yeah, The back room reminds me of that cover
A#
In every way, by and large
C
When I threw down that shot
F
I started thinking about how Freddy's is going to be a parking garage
F A#
Yep, someday soon there'll be something in the space that occupies the
bubbling fishtank
C F
Maybe a tailpipe or a row of fluorescent lights
F
G styrofoam cup
A#
Or a pair of keys hanging from a Dickies belt-loop
C F
Some fastfood trash, or maybe a staircase, or a bright yellow mazda coupe
F A#
Someday soon there'll be something in the place where Freddy himself is sure to show
C F
G wax statue at the end of the bar drinking Fontera like it was just opened 2 weeks ago
F
The Ram's skeleton above the bar in the powder blue wig
A#
Or the dented paper towel dispenser
C
The pink ladies' room sign
F
And the naked man painting by Donald out near the exit
F
Maybe the garage will have showers for their workers
A# C
And a real naked man will fit right into that space
F
Maybe Freddy's prediction...
F
All it makes room for is songs like these
A#
Sometimes there's no positive inner meaning
C
All it makes room for is songs like these
F
and "It's a Good Night for Singin" x2
Let's sing
F
They're gonna tear down Freddy's
A#
They're gonna tear down Hank's saloon
C F
Like crickets under rocks, we're all gonna hop to Bennigan's backroom x4
