Great tune, great band, fun song to play.
Am Dm
Head on the wall...
C F
And my piss hardly makes the stall,
C F
And this time it's not an act.
C F
This time I swear it's fact.
Am Dm
Now I ramble on,
C F
About that girl who's gone;
C F
And I tried teaching her guitar,
C F
Now she's standing at the bar.
Dm
She tells me her favourite song,
F
And I say, "Yeah, that's a good one..."
Dm
She says it follows her around.
F Move up two frets and strum once
No shit, it's by the Beatles.
A Em
I'm so lost,
Bm
And I live just around the corner.
A Em
Well, here's a thought,
Bm
Get Frank McCourt to write the foreword.
D
And I'm John Lennon, in '67.
Bm
I'm John Lennon, in '67.
D
I'm John Lennon, in '67.
Bm
I'm John Lennon, in '67.

Am Dm
Adam's in love again.
C F
And the good Rev wants to jam instead.
C F
Morgan's hearing none of it.
C F
She says we're doing it again.
Am Dm
The neighbourhood's up in arms.
C F
They're trying to shut down all the bars
C F
When everyone's a private eye
C F
They're hiding in the bushes every night.
Dm
The cats square off in the street,
F
The dogs go through the garbage.
Dm
You wanna stay for the night tonight?
F F then slide up two frets strum once
Well I know all about platonic, honey.
A Em
I'm so lost,
Bm
And I live just around the corner.

Get Frank McCourt to write the foreword.
