"Folk Singer"(Benson/Falkner)
From "Lapalco" (2002)

[Intro]
G C X4

[Verse]
G C
Like a folk-singer's song I'm moving on,
G C
and I'm not the kinda man that acts very strong
G C
when the girls are looking on,
G C
when the girls are looking on.

[Verse]
G C
If you tied my hands and put chains on my feet,
G C
I can picture myself walking down any street,
G C
telling people that I meet,
G C
"Psst! looks like rain to me".
G C
Looks like rain to me.

[Pre-Chorus]
G F Bb
every single day at eleven,I'm home in bed in sleep heaven,
Am7 G C
Alone 'Cos my girl leaves at seven, ain't got time for my bed-in,
Em F
she says "Stop pretending, you're not John Lennon!"

[Chorus]
G C
Will I ever get over this,
G C
having tasted your lips with a kiss?
G Cm
You can cross me off your list,
G F
take these cuffs from off my wrists,
C G
and drop your fists.
G C G

[Verse]
