Lyrics: (my own interpretation, NOT perfect!)
(Verse):
Bent shyly, hundreds of miles away
my bed is warm it waits for me.
Lost in Chicago, no money in my
pocket and the rain on my face.
(Chorus):
And carry on they say to me.
And carry on they saaayyyyyy.
(Verse):
The Elroys lost my flyer 'till they
picked up the show and wouldn't you know that,
No-one can tell me, and even if they
do well I don't understand, no.
(Chorus)
(Verse):
Drunk in Belmont, she laughs at something
in a doughnut shop, well I like her smile, yeah.
Coffee sounds good, but that kiss has me
changing my mind, no.
(Chorus)
(Bridge):
You don't know nobody, no but still they
go on and I know it's so blind.
(Chorus)
End on a B, bass does the outro.
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official TELEGRAPH tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
