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