G Eb
I sing kind little songs
C Bb G Eb C Bb
Trying to bait her soul
G Eb C
And she's like natural music
Eb G Eb C Bb
Anyway she moves
back to Theme 1
Verse 2:
Oh in time, time, time, I just love to watch her hands move
A little sugar, pepper,
Little brother wants to shine my shoes
(move to Theme 2)
Go ahead, shine, shine, shine, I'll sit real still
And my backbone shivers as she looks this way
And I try not to move
She's beautiful - natural
Hangin in the diner basking in the light of Ms. Lee
Verse 2 (original lyrics):
Given time, Lord I'd build her a mountain for a room.
Given an hour, an hour, I'd build a rocket to the moon.
(move to Theme 2)
Might take at least a week to find the strongest tool
Might take the rest of this lifetime
To find the strongest fuel
But she natural, she take the moon and put it in her pocket
She's beautiful, smiling it on me while I build this rocket

(D7) (D#7) (Bb7) (G) (D7) (D#7) (F7) (G7)
Solo in F penatonic (I think that's what you call that
scale, maybe it's Gm penatonic) over the first section of
above. Move to the last section the last time through.
back to Theme 1
Verse 3:
Because the tounge tastes so old,
Can't even load you coffee sweet
When she serves a bowl of lightning,
Makes sure you get all you need
(move to Theme 2)
Sometimes come for a menu, some just come in to breathe
Hanging in the diner sitting in the light of Ms. Lee
She's beautiful - natural
Hanging in the diner, basking in the light,
Basking in the light…
another jam section (see above)
Verse 4:
She's beauty, yeah, the girl's cooking in the diner today
No, she won't show the bother,
Even time she gets covered in blues
I sing comical songs trying to blame myself
She's all-ready music in a booth, man, if she catch you
Then it progresses to the slower part as Houser gears up:

Then back to Theme 2 for the remainder, this time with

Hanging in the diner
Sitting in the light of Ms. Lee
Opening up early
Help a poor boy up
Open on Sunday, all day
Little sunshine rising from the park
Cross the street to the path
Keeping my teeth long and longer
And a smile...
Hanging in the light
Hanging in the light
Sister
Sister
End with a pause on the Bb, then a G
