Whitey, as promised M8
FIVE MAN ELECTRICAL BAND
That's the only album i ever got of them,
Anyway here's the chords etc of "Sign"
(Intro: D Dsus2 D D Dsus2 D D Dsus4 D Dsus2 D)
C G D G
And the sign said "Long-haired freaky people need not apply"
D A G A
So I tucked my hair up under my hat, and I went in to ask him why
Bm Bm/A Em (?) G6/A (?)
He said "You look like a fine, upstanding young man, I think you'll do"
D A G A
So I took off my hat and said "Imagine that! Heh, me workin' for you!"
D C G
Whoa, sign sign everywhere a sign
D G
Blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind
D A C/G D (+ intro suspensions)
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign?
C G D G
And the sign said anybody caught trespassin' would be shot out of sight
D A
So I jumped on the fence and I yelled at the house
G A
"Hey, what gives you the right?
You put up a fence to keep me out but to keep Mother Nature in,
If God was here he'd tell you to your face, "Man you're some kind of sinner!"
(chorus)
A
Now hey there mister can't you read?
G D
You gotta have a shirt and tie to get a seat
A
You can't even watch, no you can't even
G D
You ain't supposed to be here........
C G D G
Sign said you got to have a membership card to get inside...Uhhh!
(instrumental) (then slow)
C G D G
And the sign said "Everybody welcome, come in, kneel down and pray"
D A
But when they passed around the plate and they emptied it all
G A
I didn't have a penny to pay
Bm Bm/A Em G6/A
So I got me a pen and a paper, and I made up my own little sign
D A G A
I said "Thank you Lord for thinkin' about me, I'm alive and doin' fine!"
(chorus)
