THE GREAT BICYCLE DISASTER
                                by Kelly McGuire

INTRO -  D     G      D     G


Verse 1:

     D                         G
On a hill that was bigger than any I knew
 G                           D
I learned the thrill of the wind as I flew
       Bm                  F#m
On the edge of catastrophe fast as I could
   G                    A
Adrenaline pumped in my blood
  G                     A
Adrenaline pumped in my blood

Verse 2:

       D                    G
Then a trip to the library opened a world
     G                      D
Of whalers and pirates and breakers that curled
       Bm                      F#m
Around Beaches on islands just pages away
     G                    A
From where I am anchored today
     G                    A
From where I am anchored today


Chorus 1:

            D                         G
Cause I?m a writer and a sailor and a singer of songs
    G                       D
And I?ll take you places if you?ll come along
       Bm                        F#m
From a sunset in Key West to the Seattle rain
     G                         A
I?ll show you the colors of pleasure and pain
          D                         G
And I?m a constant observer of the humanoid race
G                            D
Addicted to children with smiles on their face
          Bm                     F#m
And I?m a hopeless romantic that can?t help but dream
G                           A
Eclectically challenged it seems
G                           A
Eclectically challenged it seems

D    G     D    G    (same as Intro)

Verse 3:

     D                     G
Once I took a chance and I gave up my heart
G                              D
But before the dance ended it didn?t quite start
         Bm                        F#m
And I?ve played that song over and over again
         G                  A
But I still can?t figure out why
         G                  A
No I still can?t figure out why


Verse 4:

           D                    G
But it?s a circular motion this travel thru time
        G                     D
Your journey?s not over and neither is mine
           Bm                      F#m
There?s a new chapter written each day you can read
    G                      A
Extrapolate all that you need
    G                      A
Extrapolate all that you need


Chorus 2:

             D                         G
Cause I?m a writer and a sailor and a singer of songs
       G                     D
And I?ll take you places if you?ll come along
         Bm                       F#m
From a sunset in Key West to the Seattle rain
     G                       A
I?ll show you the colors of pleasure and pain
         D                         G
And I?m desperate survivor of the humanoid race
    G                      D
Addicted to children with smiles on their face

          Bm                     F#m
And I?m a troubadour destined to sing what he sees
     G                  A
That aging explorer is me
        G                 A
Oh that aging explorer is me

D     G       D      G   (same as Intro)

     D                          G
On a hill that was bigger than any I knew
G                           D
I learned the thrill of the wind as I flew.
