#Remember that one, folks.

#I figured out the chords from a videotape of their performance on

#where they're from. Also, my tape was cut off, so I don't know the
#ending!

#INTRO: Cm F Cm F
#
When I was [Cm]crowned a mummy's [F]boy by friends I [Cm]didn't like[F]
I made a [Cm]million trips to [F]school upon my [Cm]father's bike[F]
I used to [Bb]sit between his [Cm]legs, perched on a [Eb]piece of wood[Dm][Cm]
If it ever [Bb]rained on [Cm]us, I'd slip [Eb]beneath [Dm]his [Cm]hood[G][Cm]
And at home the radio was [F]on[Ab][F]
REFRAIN:
[Bb]>From Julie[Ab/Bb] Andre[Eb/Bb]ws [Bb] to Jerry Ga[Ab/Bb]rcia[Eb/Bb][Bb]
Life was all [G]fun and g[Cm]ames[Ab][F][Bb]
I was out of [Ab/Bb]my [Eb/Bb]head [Bb] and underneath [Ab/Bb]my [Eb/Bb]bed[Bb]
Playing with e[G]lectric tr[Cm]ains[Ab]
At home the [Cm]stereo was [F]on
My head was [Cm]filled with [F]rock
I played a [Cm]willow cricket [F]bat guitar
And [Cm]soloed round the [F]clock
My [Cm]records stacked up [F]in a pile
Col[Cm]lected from the [Ab]charts
And Top of [F]the [Bb]Pops
REFRAIN
BRIDGE:
[G]Kneeling with torchlight
Shining before me
[C]In my bed my eyeballs stuck in readers wives
[Eb]Pubic hairs proudly counted everyday
[F]Manhood took me slowly out into the milky [Bb]way
ADLIB: Bb Ab/Bb Eb/Bb (3x)
[Bb] I chased the [Cm]girls and made them [F]cry
My hair grew [Cm]down my back[F]
The passing [Cm]of my teenage [F]years
Was spent down [Cm]in the sack[F]
I played [Bb]guitar and formed a [Cm]band
I puked up [Eb]all night long[Dm][Cm]
As people [Bb]came to sit and [Cm]stare
While I raced [Eb]through [Dm]my [Cm]songs[G][Cm]
The sound of music passed me [F]by
Just [Ab]like the Grate[F]ful [Bb]Dead
REFRAIN
