(INTRO)

VERSE 1

Gsus2 Asus2
I shuffle 'round the Earth like a ping pong.
Gsus2 Asus2
To find something just to hang my hat on
Gsus2 Asus2 F#m E
And somewhere just to let my pants get dry.
Gsus2 Asus2
Heard a trucker on a pay phone gas mall
Gsus2 Asus2
sort his deal out with a twenty five cent call
Gsus2 Asus2 F#m E
Shooting through before his see-through coffee went cold

CHORUS

Em A
And it sure did seem a good deal to me
Em A
But my head's too soaked in Brilliantine
Em A D (INTRO)
So just take me out, alright!

VERSE

Gsus2 Asus2
I've brushed over stations and channels
Gsus2 Asus2
and combed the town in corduroy and flannel
Gsus2 Asus2 F#m
Only know who you are when you move and who you're with when you're alone.
E
That's all I know

CHORUS

Em A
And it sure did seem a good deal to me,
Em A
But my head's too soaked in Brilliantine
Em A D
So just take me out, alright!
Em A
And top of the morn and slip of the day
Em A
Just don't sleep good since I been away.
Em A D
So here's to you, alright!

D G
I think I've figured out a way to get by
C B Asus2
I'll leave your brain out sitting on a shelf.
D G
I think I figured out a cracking good way to get by
C B Asus2 D
So kick me out, I'm going west, bye bye

SOLO

CODA

C B Asus2
Walk stupid like an expectant dad
C D Asus2
waiting for your hand like I'm waiting for skylab
C B Asus2 D
So kick me out, I'm going west, alright
