A7
My mother told me be a good boy,

And don't do nothing wrong,
          D
And she'd wrapped up the sandwich,
          C    A7
For me to take along
            G
Cause I was gonna see Jimi,
D                      A7
Nothing's gonna be the same.

A7
She drove us crosstown in her old chevy,

She parked and waited for us outside,
         D
She said be careful honey of
            C      A7
these crazy people inside,
            G
Cause I was gonna see Jimi,
    D                      A7
And nothing's gonna be the same.

Now there was Police at the front door,

And there were Police on the stage,
         D
But to a twelve year old boy,
                C   A7
It was all cool and straight,
            G
Cause I was gonna see Jimi,
    D                      A7
And nothing's gonna be the same.

A7
The lights were dimming, people were shouting,

And I forgot about my Mom in the car,
        D
When he walked out on stage
                   A7
And plugged in his guitar,
            G
Cause I was gonna see Jimi,
    D                      A7
And nothing's gonna be the same
      G
I was gonna see Jimi,
    D               C      A   Em7 A7
And nothing's gonna be the same.
