Larabys Gang by Spin Doctors
Larabys Gang
Intro: G C X 4
G B
Stoop's so fine on a summer's eve
Am
when you sit outside for a short reprieve
C
Talk to folks as they come and leave
G C G C
Jono, Jay, and Crazy Steve.
G B
Night is down but it's bright as day
Am
You haven't been around since you went away
C
Feels so good so that's what you say
G C G C
Folks say hi, but you say, "Hey."
C
Well, that old mad dog, he's barking for the blues bone
G
Orpheus got a black book and a telephone
D/F#
Plays that lyre 'cause he doesn't want to be alone;
C Cm
One look back....
Buy a beer, find a place to stand
Have a couple laughs and hear the band
Smoke a couple of your favorite brand
Wake up with a stamp on the back of your hand.
Em C B Am
Don't blame me, it's all been Laraby's gang, now, now.
Em C B
Am
Don't blame me for the song that the Nightingale sang, now, now.
Em
Don't blame me 'bout the vanishing waif,
C B Am
Don't blame me if your safe ain't safe, now, now.
Guitar Solo:
G C G C G C G C
Sun comes up, you're still awake.
There's the sky, still as a lake.
Not even that can drown the ache,
Looks so high, it must be fake.
