Kunci Gitar The Felice Brothers - Jazz On The Autobahn

[Verse 1]
D G
The sheriff disappeared
D G
He drove in a doomed Corvette
D G
Helen was in the passenger seat eating melon and spitting out the seeds
D G D G D G
Feeling happy to be alone but still turning a saxophone as cold as stone kinda like

[Verse 2]
D G
She said this is what the apocalypse will look like
D G
A tornado with human eyes
D
Poisoned birdbaths and torrents of chemical rain
G D G
Like the heads of state hyperventilating in clouds of methane
D G D G
Sundown on the human heart

[Verse 3]
D G
And this is what the apocalypse will sound like
D G
But it will be loud as a mushroom cloud
D
It will sound like final jeopardy
G
But somehow be ghostly like a glockenspiel
D G
Like the testing of bombs or the tapping of stiletto heels

[Chorus]
D
It will sound like jazz
G
Jazz jazz jazz
D
Jazz on the autobahn
G D
It will sound like jazz
G
Jazz jazz jazz
D G
Jazz on the autobahn

[Verse 4]
D
The sheriff disagreed
G D
He tried to make the distinction between death and extinction
G D
They stopped off at a place called Hamburger Heaven to grab a bite to eat
G D
But Helen had no appetite, she just drank a 7 Up
G
While the sheriff tapped his coffee cup to a distant beat

[Interlude]
D G D G

[Verse 5]
D
It won’t look like those old frescoes, man I don’t think so
G D
There will be no angels with swords, man I don’t think so
G D
No jubilant beings in the sky above, man I don’t think so
G D
And it won’t look like those old movies neither
G D
There will be no drag racing through the bombed out streets neither
G D
No shareholders will be orbiting the earth, man neither
G D
It will be hard to recognize each other through our oxygen masks
G D
The successful sons of businessmen will set their desks on fire
G D
While five star generals of the free world weep in the oil-choked tide

[Chorus]
G D
It won’t sound like jazz
G
Jazz jazz jazz
D
Jazz on the autobahn
G D
It won’t sound like jazz
G
Jazz jazz jazz
D
Jazz on the autobahn

[Verse 6]
G D
They agreed to disagree
G D
They zoomed off in a doomed Corvette
G D
The sheriff couldn’t recall feeling this way his entire life
G D
As he drove through the principalities of unreality
G
On the run with somebody else’s wife
D G D G
The heiress of Texas oil

[Verse 7]
D
What is freedom? He thought
G D
Is it to be empty of desire?
G D
Is it to find everything I’ve lost or have been in search of?
G D
Or is it to return to the things is which there is no more returning?

[Chorus]
G D
Does it feel like jazz?
G
Jazz jazz jazz
D
Jazz on the autobahn
G D
Does it feel like jazz?
G
Jazz jazz jazz
D
Jazz on the autobahn
G D
Does it feel like jazz?
G
Jazz jazz jazz
D
Jazz on the autobahn
G D
Does it feel like jazz?
G
Jazz jazz jazz
D
Jazz on the autobahn
G D
Does it feel like jazz?
G
Jazz jazz jazz
D
Jazz on the autobahn
G D
Does it feel like jazz?
G
Jazz jazz jazz
D G D
Jazz on the autobahn
