Here's the way I play The Drinking Song by Moxy Fruvous (from their
album Bargainville).
CHORD:
And the band played on as the helicopter whirred
Drunk on the lawn in a nuclear dawn
My senses finally blurred.
VERSE:
He was a rock to the end a solid reminder
Couldn't deny a friend
We lived in the noise and the sweet amber poison
Peekin' up the skirt of the end
G C G ----+
And we'd drink two gnarly dudes and some records |
C D7 |(the chords for
Much like plates of black food |this half just
G C G |repeat those
We filled up our faces, saw some far places |of the first
D C D7 |half)
Stood on the roof in the nude. |
----+
CHORUS
the rest of the verses just repeat that pattern:
           
BRIDGE:
Irene good night...
