Lonesome Town

Intro: D Bm G A  

  D             Bm                     G              A
I used to play around with hearts that hastened at my call,
    D               Bm            G                 A
But when I met that little girl I knew that I would fall.

            D        Bm    Em      A        D   Bm G A
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh..

    D                 Bm                 G              A
She played around and teased me with her carefree devil eyes,
      D                 Bm              G                 A
She'd hold me close and kiss me but her heart was full of lies.

            D        Bm    G       A        D   Bm G A
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh..

    D               Bm               G               A
She told me how she cared for me and that we'd never part,
    D               Bm           G            A
And so for the very first time I gave away my heart.

            D        Bm    G       A        D   Bm G A
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh..

    D                Bm         G                  A
The next day she was gone and I knew she'd lied to me,
    D              Bm               G            A
She left me with a broken heart and won her victory.

            D        Bm    G       A        D   Bm G A
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh..

    D                     Bm                 G                 A
I'd played this game with other hearts but I never thought I'd see,
    D                Bm                     G                 A
The day that someone else would play love's foolish game with me.

            D        Bm    G       A        D   Bm G A
Poor little fool, oh yeah, I was a fool, uh huh..

    G
She passed me by one sunny day,
C
Flashed those big brown eyes my way,
    G                          D7  Amadd11
And oooh, I wanted you forever more,
    G
I'm not one who gets around,
C
Swear my feet stuck to the ground,
    G              D            G
And though I never did meet you before,


G
Hello Mary Lou,

  C
Believe me I just had no choice
     G                            D7/F#  Amadd11/F#
Wild horses couldn't make me stay away
  G
I thought about a moonlit night
C
Arms around you good and tight
       G            D             G
That's all I had to see for me to say:

              G            C
"Hey, hey, hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
      G                            D7/F#  Amadd11/F#
Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you!
  G              Bm         Em
I knew Mary Lou, we'd never part
      G       D            G
So hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart!


        G       D            G
Yes, hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart!
   G       D            G
Hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart!"

Travelin' Man

In October 1971 Rick was invited to play in a reunion show at Madison Square Garden, alongside such early rock luminaries as Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Little Richard and others. By this time his hair had grown shoulder length and he was heavily into the country rock genre. When he mixed in new material with his old music, the audience began to boo. Whether it was really their reaction to their idol's new look and sound, or, as one report states, &quot;. . .

De nada dudes ya
Hey, honestamente te explicaré 
de natural modo cada fenómeno
El mar, el sol, el gas, 
oh, ese es Maui hablando de más
Anguilas que, yo las enterré, 
de la palmera los cocos creé
Un consejo, una lección te doy
No me molestes si en mi descanso estoy
Am
  El tapiz que en mi piel se ve, 
F
  es el mapa de lo que gané
C
  Por donde fui provoqué mil sucesos
E7
  Ve al pequeñín mini Maui nomás zapateando,
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ¡Hey!

Te toca a ti decir de nada (de nada)
       E7             Am
Pues quiero esa barca ya

Muy lejos navegaré, de nada (de nada)
       E7               Am
Pues Maui nada sabe de nadar
              F                 C  F C
(De nada) De nada (De nada) de nada
         C
Y gracias

King Creole

C F G C

C
She don't like her eggs all runny
C
She thinks crossin' her legs is funny
    F
She looks down her nose at money
    C 
She gets it on like the Easter Bunny
G      
She's my baby I'm her honey
                       C    G    C
I'm never gonna let her go
C
He ain't got laid in a month of Sundays
C
I caught him once and he was sniffin' my undies
   F
He ain't too sharp but he gets things done
C
Drinks his beer like it's oxygen
G
He's my baby
G
And I'm his honey
                    C   G   C
Never gonna let him go
             F
In spite of ourselves
                             C
We'll end up a'sittin' on a rainbow
             G
Against all odds
                          C
Honey, we're the big door prize
             F
We're gonna spite our noses
                 C
Right off of our faces
                                    G
There won't be nothin' but big old hearts
               C     G   C
Dancin' in our eyes.
C
She thinks all my jokes are corny
C
Convict movies make her horny
    F
She likes ketchup on her scrambled eggs
C
Swears like a sailor when shaves her legs
G
She takes a lickin'
G
And keeps on tickin'
                        C   G   C
I'm never gonna let her go.
C
He's got more balls than a big brass monkey

He's a whacked out weirdo and a lovebug junkie
F
Sly as a fox and crazy as a loon
C
Payday comes and he's howlin' at the moon
G
He's my baby I don't mean maybe
                    C   G   C
Never gonna let him go

              F
In spite of ourselves
                             C
We'll end up a'sittin' on a rainbow
             G
Against all odds
                          C
Honey, we're the big door prize
             F
We're gonna spite our noses
                 C
Right off of our faces
                                    G
There won't be nothin' but big old hearts
               C     G   C
Dancin' in our eyes.
