Man Behind The Drums by Robert Earl Keen
Man Behind The Drums
C G Am F
We left New York City, with nothin' but a song,
C G F
she'll be coming' 'round the mountain when she comes.
C G Am F
We wound up in Woodstock, at an old time jamboree,
C G Fss
came to see the man behind the drums.||
(Chorus)
C F C F
Levon digs the doghouse, playing in The Band,
C G C D F
when he locks in to that backbeat it ain't hard to understand.
C F C F
Get your body movin', celebrate your soul,
C G C F G C G F C C G F C
Levon digs the doghouse, that's sho-nuff rock and roll.
C G Am F
Son of a plain dirt farmer, from southeast Arkansas,
C G F
he was born in a bare ramblin' shoe.
C G Am F
Up and down the highway, and all around the world,
C G Fss
laying down the rhythm and the blues.
(Chorus)
C G Am F
We were hangin' from the rafters, singing every song,
C G F
that big barn band was hot as it could be.
C G Am F
Up there in the spotlight, the man behind the drums,
C G F
was takin' all the load off for you and me.
(Chorus)
C G C F G C
Yea, Levon digs the doghouse, that's sho-nuff rock and roll.
