G
Well let me tell you something let me tell you so
This could be the one thing that you really need to know
C
You got to stop once in a while
G
And shake off that face of yours
Em Bm
Cause nothing comes easy no it just comes free
Em Bm D
You could sing it better if you'd sing it for me oh sister
G
Well I cannot claim this advice as my own
I learned it in the gutter one night coming home
C G
She said "Don't you look ridiculous" I checked her out meticulously
Em Bm
I would've stopped to argue but my teeth were broke
Em Bm D
I said "I'd love to contradict you but my life's a joke oh sister"
Chorus:
G
She said I'm no genius and I've lost my self
The books are on the table and the secrets on the shelf
C
And it's one time keep it slow wind them up and here we go
G
Get it right today and you may still be here tomorrow
D
Some said she was saintly to some she was a swinger
C G
Me I only knew here as an acid jazz singer come on
G
Well I'm a lucky man and maybe so is she
And maybe this is just the way it has to be
C G
It's all based on speculation seems a crazy occupation to me
Em Bm
And though I didn't much believe her I was bound to call
Em Bm D
I really didn't want to miss a single thing at all oh sister
Chorus:
G
She said I'm no genius and I've lost my self
The books are on the table and the secrets on the shelf
C
And it's one time keep it slow wind them up and here we go
G
Get it right today and you may still be here tomorrow
D
Some said she was saintly to some she was a swinger
C G
Me I only knew here as an acid jazz singer come on

And it's one time keep it slow wind them up and here we go

Get it right today and you may still be here tomorrow
D
Some said she was saintly to some she was a swinger
C G
Me I only knew here as an acid jazz singer come on

C G
Put your hands together for the acid jazz singer come on
