Acid Jazz Singer Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Well let me tell you something
Let me tell [C]you so
[G]This could be the one thing
That you really need to know
You gotta [C]stop once in a while
Shake off that face [G]of yours

[Verse 2]
Cause [Em]nothing comes easy
Oh it [Bm]just comes free
[Em]You could sing it better
If [Bm]you sing for me, oh [D]sister

[Verse 3]
Well I [G]cannot claim
This advice is my own
I landed in the gutter
One night, crawling home
She said [C]don't you look ridiculous
I checked her out [G]meticulously

[Verse 4]
[G]And I wou[Em]ld've stopped to argue
But my [Bm]teeth were broke
I said I'd [Em]love to contradict you
But my [Bm]life's a joke, oh [D]sister

[Verse 5]
[D]And she said [G]I'm no genius
and I've lost myself
The books are on the table,
and the secret's on the shelf
And it's a [C]one time, keep it slow
Wind 'em up and here we go
[G]Get a ride today
And you would still be here tomorrow

[Verse 6]
[D]Some said she was saintly
Some she was a swinger
[C]Me, I only knew her as the acid jazz singer,
come on
[G][D][G][Bb][G][Eb]

[Verse 7]
[G]
[C]Well I'm[G] a lucky man
But maybe so is she
And maybe this is just the way it has to be
It's all [C]based on speculation
It's a crazy my occupation [G]to me
And though I [Em]didn't much believe her
I was [Bm]bound to call
I really [Em]didn't wanna miss
a single [Bm]thing at all
Oh [D]sister

[Verse 8]
And she said [G]I'm no genius
and I've lost myself
The books are on the table,
and the secret's on the shelf
And it's a [C]one time, keep it slow
Wind 'em up and here we go
[G]Get a ride today
And you may still be here tomorrow

[Verse 9]
[D]Some said she was saintly
Some she was a swinger
[C]Me, I only knew her as the Acid Jazz Singer,

[Verse 10]
[D][C][Bm][Am][G][F][D]
she said
[G]I'm no genius and I've lost myself
The books are on the table,
and the secret's on the shelf

Wind 'em up and here we go
[G]Get a ride today
And you may still be here tomorrow
