spoon
the agony of lafitte

– chords to one of the greatest spoon songs –

Gm Cm
all i ever asked of you
F A#
a copy of garage days and to tell me the truth
D# D7
ain’t no one watching you exit ventura highway
Gm G

Gm Cm
it’s like i knew two of you man
F A#
the one before and after we shook hands
D# D7
taking the calls but in all forgetting what’s been
said
Gm G

Gm Cm
and after dark in a cab in l . A .
F A#
forget about the meter man these are salad days
D# D7 Gm
comes on the radio comes on and what’s being said

F A# Cm Dm D#
is you’re no better than sylvia , no better than . . .
A# Cm Dm D#
no better than sylvia
Gm Cm F A#
where you are and where you’ve been and where you’ve
gone
D# D7 G
oh

Gm Cm
here’s a mark he’s a mark on the page
F A#
dishing out the wisdom of this reflexive age
D# D7
dotting the eyes with an eye for defining what you
were
Gm G

Gm Cm
so when you do that line tonight
F A#
remember that it came at a steep price
D# D7
and keep telling yourself there’s more to you than her

F A# Cm Dm D#
but you’re no better than sylvia , no better than . . .
A# Cm Dm D#
no better than sylvia
Gm Cm F A#
where you gone where you been and where you gone
D# D7 Gm G
oh no .

Gm
( vibes and whoosh sounds )

– the chorus is a little funky with all the overlaps ,
but the chords are right . . .
