this is just the chords version with lyrics . it’s based off of my tab .
this is also my first tab of just chords , so hopefully it comes out right .
there is a chord chart at the bottom .
tuning : standard
intro ( played twice ) : G , Cadd9 , Em , A
verse 1 :
A
shakey threw a party that lasted all night
D
everybody drank a lot of something nice
E
there was an old fashioned band of married men
F#m
looking up to me for encouragement – it was so – so
A
the ladies looked bad but the music was sad
D
no one took their eyes off lorraine
E
she shimmered and she strolled like a chicago moll
F#m
her feathers looked better and better – it was so – so
bridge :
D A
yea! it was time to unfreeze
B D
when the reverend alabaster danced on his knees
D A
slam! so it wasn’t a game
E
cracking all the mirrors in shame
chorus :
A D G C
watch that man! oh honey , watch that man
D C G
he talks like a jerk but he could eat you with a fork and spoon
A D G C
watch that man! oh honey , watch that man
D C B
he walks like a jerk , but he’s only taking care of the room
C
must be in tune
intro again : G , Cadd9 , Em , A , G , Cadd9 , Em , A
verse 2 :
A
a benny goodman fan painted holes in his hands
D
so shakey hung him up to dry
E
the pundits were joking , the manholes were smoking and every bottle battled
F#m
with the reason why
A
the girl on the phone wouldn’t leave me alone
D
a throw back from someone’s lp
E
a lemon in a bag played the tiger rag
F#m
and the bodies on the screen stopped bleeding
bridge 2 :
D A
yeah! i was shaking like a leaf
B D
for i couldn’t understand the conversation
D A E
yeah! i ran to the street , looking for information
chorus 2 :
A D G C
watch that man! oh honey , watch that man
D C G
he talks like a jerk but he could eat you with a fork and spoon
A D G C
watch that man! oh honey , watch that man
D C B
he walks like a jerk , but he’s only taking care of the room
C
must be in tune
ending : ( the repetition of “watch that man” ) *
G Cadd9
watch that man
* note : for the remainder of the ending , its just G and Cadd9 . listen
for the changes , they are easy to hear . and that’s it!
chords used : you can use whatever variation you want , barre chords , power
chords and so on but here are the good ol’ classical chords that i used .
don’t hit strings with an ’x’ on them .
E A D G B E
G : 3 2 0 0 3 3
Cadd9 : x 3 2 0 3 3
A : x 0 2 2 2 0
