Chords fit to follow the Intro tab also here
[Intro]
Em Am
Em Am
My new purple shoes
Em G
'bin amazing the people next door
G7 C
And my rock'n'roll 45's
Eb D Dm Fm D7 D7 D7 D7
'bin enraging the folks on the lower floor
Em Am
I got a way with the girls on my block
Em Am
Tryin' my best be a real individual
Em G G7
And when we go down to Smokies and rock
C Cm D7 (8x)
They light up like it's some kinda ritual
[Chorus]
(Em and Am, each chord = 5 fast strokes, 3 rest, repeat:
Em /////xxx/////xxx Am /////xxx/////xxx )
Em Am
Ooh give me a good guitar
Em Am
and you can say that my hair's a disgrace
Em G
or just find me an open car
G7 C Cm D7
I'll make the speed of light out of this place
Em Am
I like the good things in life
Em Am
But most of the best things ain't free
Em G
This insane situation just cuts like a knife
G7 C D7
When you're young and you're poor and you're crazy
[Chorus]
Em Am
Ooh give me a good guitar
Em Am
and you can say that my hair's a disgrace
Em G
or just find me an open car
G7 C Cm D7
I'll make the speed of light out of this place
(Piano outro segues into Flick Of The Wrist, ending with the D7 x8 from just
before first chorus works well.)
