i don't think i could have possibly made this more complicated. i'm never doing this again.

soda shop
music and lyrics by jay brannan

the sidewalk is rushing at my head again
i'm lying on the street in the rain and wind
from doing forward rolls down avenue A
with my guitar on my back, don't let it end this way

somehow i dialed my cell
i didn't know i could get service in hell
how quickly can you get here, don't know where i am dear
finally the world actually seems to be revolving around me

chorus
shoo-be-doo-be-doo-wop
i overdid it at the soda shop
thanks for being my girl at the
i-don't-know-when-to-stop sock hop

you held my head over the edge of the bed
i remember it now, but at the time i thought i was dead
you put a pan there, and held back my hair
how can i repay you for saving me and my hardwood floor?

chorus

and when the world stopped spinning 'round
i picked the pan up off the ground
i read my upheaves, much like tea leaves
they said it's over, so get sober, or you'll die again

chorus

  • Neat! You do music like I do! *delight* As a visually impaired singer, I never learned how to read music, so it's really inspiring to know that someone like you works more intuitively, like me. ^_^ Your music is always a pleasure to hear, and it's so cool to find out how intelligent and personable you are outside of your rockin' screen work. ^_^ Thanks so much, n' kudos, Jay!

  • Actually:

    3 fret 6th string 1x down 2 & 3th strings together 1x up 6th string 1x down 6th string (left off) 1x down

    2, 3 & 4 frets 1, 2 & 3th strings together 1x up

    3 fret 5th string 1x down 2 & 3th strings together 1x up 5th string 1x down 5th string (left off) 1x down

    5 fret 5th string 2x down

    7 fret 2 & 3th strings together 1x up

    Thank you very much! I think it becomes more clear...
