G        Em        Am             D
Slipping away what can I say
G         Em             C           Cmaj7 Am
Won't you stay inside me month of    May
G           Em    Am      A5           D        G
And hold on to me golden day, slippin' away

C   C   Am  A5   D
Sunshine on my wall
G          Em          Am         D/G
to keep my mind on the things I'm saying
C   C     Am A5  D    G          Em             C      Am
Footsteps in the hall to tell me I've been this way before
D
nevermore

(verse 2)
G      Em         Am   D
Let it rain sweet Mary-Jane
G                Em        C   Am
Let it wash your love down all around me
G       Em      C       D           G
Come inside and put it down. Let it rain
G                F              C          D   G
I've been trying hard to find a way to let you know
G    C              F     C    F   C   G  C/G
That we can make it shine most all the time
G                    F                 C       D       G
This time 'round I'm searching down to where I used to go
G    C              F    C  F    C  G  C/G
And it's been on my mind to make it shine
C       Bb    F          G
You can say I want to be free
Bb    F                   G
I can say some day I will be
{Get Funky. R&B type strum. Think James Brown}
G7
When I catch a common cold

I want to hear a saxophone
When I let the good times roll
Slide me a bass trombone
G7               Bb
Walk me down old funky street
C                 Eb
Lord knows I feel good enough to eat
G7      A     Bb                C7
Hold my soul. I sure am fond of my rock and roll

When I go to sleep at night

I want to hear a slide guitar
When I'm feeling loose and right
Riding in my automobile
Boney Maroney and Peggy Sue
Rocking pneumonia and boogey-woogey flu
Hold my soul. I'm sure enough fond of my rock and roll
Good God
