COULDN’T GET IT RIGHT
Climax Blues Band
Intro: Cm-Bb-Cm (3x)
Cm Cm-Bb-Ab
Time is driftin', this rock has got to roll
Cm Ab-Bb-Cm
So I hit the road and made my getaway
Cm-Bb-Ab
Restless feeling, I really gotta hold
F
I started searching for a better way
Chorus:
Eb F
And I kept on looking for a sign in the middle of the night
Ab Eb-Bb
But I couldn't see the light--, no I couldn't see the light--
Eb F-
I kept on looking for a way to take me through the ni—ght
Ab F
But I couldn't get it right, no I couldn't get it right--
LA fever, made me feel alright
But I must admit it got the best of me
Gettin' down, so deep I nearly drowned
I can't get back to where I used to be
And I kept on looking for a sign in the middle of the night
But I couldn't see the light--, no I couldn't see the light--
I kept on looking for a way to take me through the ni--ght
But I couldn't get it right, no I couldn't get it right--
Instru:
New York City, took me with the tide
I nearly died from hospitality
Left me stranded and took away my pride
Just another know it all fatality
(Chorus 3X to fade)
