New Yorker Cartoon Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

I know Dpower isn't a chord, but it's a root and fifth, so it's basically a power chord.

 The A♯ and C probably aren't A♯ and C either, but pretty close to in a G shape.

GI was running

 From imaginary vampire bats D

I was shrieking at the moon

 While Montezuma laughed G

Oh, Aztlan blues

And reds and greens and golds

I hope that I die

When I'm 100 years old

AmLooking like a New Yorker cartoon D

AmSleeping in a golden cocoon D

 With you G C7M G

I was making love

To my sister from another life

I was stitching seams of my opium dreams

With a needle from a camel's eye

If I could give myself some advice

I'd go out of my mind right now

I'd stay here with my baby

Forever in the here and now

Looking like a New Yorker cartoon

Sleeping in a golden cocoon

With you

With you

G [G/f#] Bm Em Bm

D Dadd Dpower Dadd

I was returning my salute

To the Lieutenant paper bag

And my best friend, Farmer Dave

Lit me up so I could take a drag

My sister's former flame

Threw his shirt into the fire

An aging child prodigy

A genius who inspired

Looking like a New Yorker cartoon

Sleeping in a golden cocoon

With you

With you

With you

G A♯ C G
