*Repeat riff throughout song
Second guitar can play power chords:
E
Here we are now where are we?
It's like nothing I've ever seen
E
We got horse throated huckster's whispered gimmicks
Rubbernecking all the curious cynics
And headlong walkers, one born every minute
B
Do I plug it in or do I stick it in it?
D E
Well, I don't know what came over me
D E
I'm too dumb for words
D E
Well, I didn't think I'd like it here at all
D E
But I swear, I swear I'm on the verge
E
Here we are now who are you?
The long lost gueens of some hoodoo?
E
Well, we're the last of the big time penetrators
Playing dead to fuck the undertaker
The movie'll come out a little bit later
The Men, The Legend, The Goat, The Saytr
D E
Well, I don't know what came over me
D E
I'm too dumb for words
D E
Well, I didn't say I'd like it here at all
D E
But I swear, I swear I'm on the verge
[no chords] play solo riff
I'm on the verge
I'm on the verge
I'm on the verge
I'm on the verge
E
Here we are now don't ask how
The time to leave was kind of now
E
Well, don't cry, baby, there's no cause for grief
Deadheading's never going to kill the chief
It's an empty road without relief
And I'm a highway romance milking thief
D E
Well, I don't know what came over me
D E
I'm too dumb for words
D E
Well, I didn't think I'd like it here at all
D E
But I swear, I swear I'm on the verge
D E
I'm too dumb for words
D E
Well, I didn't think I'd like it here at all
D E
But I swear, I swear I'm on the verge
[same solo riffs, anyone
wanna give it a shot?]
I'm on the verge
I'm on the verge
I'm on the verge
I'm on the verge
