I wrote a poem on a dog biscuit
FF
And your dog refused to look at it
Bb majorBb
So I got drunk and looked at the Empire State Building
FF
It was no bigger than a nickel
Bb majorBb
And if it don't improve
FF
Well then I have to move
Bb majorBb FF
I never thought that I would end up here
D#D# Bb majorBb FF (break)
Maybe I should just change my style
D#D# Bb majorBb FF (break)
But I feel alright when you smile
Bb majorBb
I stayed at home on the Fourth of July
FF
And I pulled the shades so I didn't have to see the sky
Bb majorBb
I decided to have a Bed In
FF
But I forgot to invite anybody
Bb majorBb
And when I fell asleep
FF
The neighbours had a peep
BB FF
I never thought that I would end up here
D#D# BB FF
Maybe I should just change my style
D#D# BB FF (break)
But I feel all right when you smile
For the rest of the song:
| FF | FF | Bb majorBb | Bb majorBb |
(note that the two chords have switched place - FF major first, then BB flat major)
I have no idea how to tab the the riffs and the solo. Comment below if you have something to add!
