Caroline Herring - The Dozens
CAPO: 4th Fret
C
I had a few more questions
G
I never knew to ask
F
You were feeling downhearted
C
The last time we parted
With the shock of the white hair
G
Life has changed a lot you know
F
And I'm kind of scared of that
C
It bottoms out in seconds flat
You said you had a good friend
G
He died so needlessly
F
Knocked over by a garbage truck
C
They threw him down, then they picked him up
And your son was back home again
G
Your little boy and his children
F
He's fighting off a mean disease
C
That's killing off his faculties
CHORUS:
G C
Tell me a little joke
G C Em F
Let's play the dozens
C
Say something about my mama
G
In a veiled quadrille round
C
I'm just a white girl
G C Em F
From a segregated town
C
And I'm looking for some answers
G C
That I haven't found
I remember Memphis
G
Like it was yesterday
F
And a Ford station wagon
C
So full of us, it was dragging
With your books in our grasping hands
G
We heard you speak, we made our plans
F
To hoist the flag and rule the world
C
All the hopes we had unfurled
CHORUS:
G C
Tell me a little joke
G C Em F
Let's play the dozens
C
Say something about my mama
G
In a veiled quadrille round
C
I'm just a white girl
G C Em F
From a segregated town
C
And I'm looking for some answers
G C
That I haven't found
BRIDGE:
G F C
I want to be just like you
G E C
I want to love first, I do
F
Look people in the eye
C
Make them feel good
F
Then I'll make them think
Dm G
Just like you would
C
Y'all were off on a night stroll
G
Down the capitol boulevards
F
You were emboldening another son
C
Of this grand nation
I would vote for you for president
G
But you're floating with the butterflies
F
Soaring with the seagulls
C
Or the eagle as he takes the skies
Let's eat some democratic soup
G
And Eastern Market cheese
F
Meals with you and Cornelia
C
Were my most precious memories
I don't know what the hell to do
G
Please give me a little tap
F
Tell me I can take it
C
That I won't bottom out in seconds flat
