Capo fret 3 [Live version, Ferrara, Italy, 1998] [A min]
Poor ole surrender [G]
Mimosa, fin'ly burnt out by the [A min] sun
I feel pretty burnt [C] out myself when the [G] long, hot summer is [A min] done [A min] summertime's long been my [G] fav'rite, now
I can't grab it no [A min] more can't find no time for [C] a fish on the line or that [G] swing in the old [A min]
Sycamore I'm in such a [F] hurry now it [C] starts to [G] worry me stop an' smell the roses? [A min] baby
I can't hardly see [F] no,
I aint forgotten just how good it all can be, but [G]
I've got so much [A min] responsibility baby, you know how
I'm [G] working, sorry
I'm busy so [A min] much sorry those days when the [C] world went our way are so [G] hard to return to [A min] an'touch maybe our future looks [G] brighter, maybe our ship will come [A min] in maybe these years an'these [C] muletrain careers will be [G] things we wont think about [A min] then but
I'm in such a [F] hurry now it [C] starts to worry [G] me stop an' smell the roses? [A min] baby
I can't hardly see [F] no,
I aint forgotten just how good it all can be, but [G]
I've got so much [A min] responsibility [F] competition's heavy on a hard line wreckin'crew [A min] the good ones never leave an'still there's always some one new [F] pressure comes down hard up on a top notch rivet team [G] we don't get time to pace ourselves, we don't stand around and [A min] dream
Poor ole surrender [G]
Mimosa, fin'ly burnt out by the [A min] heat
I feel pretty burnt [C] out myself when
I [G] make that ole turn down [A min] our street summertime's long been my [G] fav'rite, now it's ole autumn [A min]
I love summertime fun on some [C] beach in the sun is not [G] somethin'
I'm seein' much [A min] of
I'm in such a [F] hurry now it [C] starts to worry [G] me stop an' smell the roses? [A min] baby
I can't hardly see [F] no,
I aint forgotten just how good it all can be, but [G]
I've got so much [A min] responsibility
