Words and music by Son Volt from the 2005 album "Okemah and the Melody of Riot"
Cadd9 - Play a Cadd9 with an open high e string
A - Play an open A chord and hammer on and off the D string
[ A ][ A7 ][ A ]
[ D ] A mobile [ G ] means to make the [ Cadd9 ] time
A whirl [ A ] wind half mast the [ G ] senses
Shaking your [ Cadd9 ] own brand of [ G ] rhyme
Shaking your [ Cadd9 ] own brand of [ G ] rhyme
On [ Cadd9 ] wide avenues the air moves the sound
[ A ] Cruising rou-[ A7 ]-ound
[ Em ] Who makes the minutes [ A ] move
[ Em ] The postmeridian new [ A ]
[ D ] Who-[ G ]o
[ Cadd9 ] Who else but [ A ] you
[ D ] Who-[ G ]o
[ Cadd9 ] Who else but [ A ] you
[ D ][ G ][ Cadd9 ][ A ] x2
[ A ][ A7 ][ A ] x2
[ D ] With gypsy [ G ] scarf and an old world [ Cadd9 ] mouth
A mojo [ A ] hand brought up from the [ G ] south
Shaking your [ Cadd9 ] own brand of [ G ] rhyme
Shaking your [ Cadd9 ] own brand of [ G ] rhyme
On [ Cadd9 ] wide avenues the air moves the sound
[ A ] Cruising rou-[ A7 ]-ound
[ Em ] Who makes the minutes [ A ] move
[ Em ] The postmeridian new [ A ]
[ D ] Who-[ G ]o
[ Cadd9 ] Who else but [ A ] you
[ D ] Who-[ G ]o
[ Cadd9 ] Who else but [ A ] you
[ D ][ G ][ Cadd9 ][ A ] x2
[ A ][ A7 ][ A ] x2
[ Em ]Eye level with Goliath's [ A ] shoes
[ Em ]Spitting out these well worn [ A ] blues
[ Em ]Eye level with Goliath's [ A ] shoes
[ Em ]Spitting out these well worn [ A ] blu-[ A7 ]-es
[ D ] Who-[ G ]o
[ Cadd9 ] Who else but [ A ] you
[ D ] Who-[ G ]o
[ Cadd9 ] Who else but [ A ] you
[ D ][ G ][ Cadd9 ][ A ] x2
[ A ][ A7 ][ A ] x2
End on A
