 (using the Fm riff for the most part)
It's  a Friday night cookin' show with a  horsemeat
dish,  I had to stay in the freezer all Thursday eve,  talkin' to that
horse,  I really had to go  down to the
sidewalk,  the sky's all red, the street's filled  with people  from a
High  School band
 I escaped  to a theater
 To see  a girl
 With long  blonde hair
 Right down  to there
 I escaped  from a  theater
 To see  a girl
 With long  blonde hair
 We had to leave
 We got in a tan van
 Us two in the back
 With Steve McGarrett
 From Hawaii-Five-O
 At the steering wheel
 Speeding away we slide into a
 Parking lot
 And all in slow motion
 These tough guys appear
 We argue and fight
 And one pulls a knife
 He hits me in the back
 But I'm all right
 I'm all right
 I'm all right
 I'm all right
 He's all right
 riff: x4
 Last Chorus:
 This chorus has the same words as the first, but the timing is
 slightly different, so I've put the chords above this one, too.
 I escaped  from a theater
 To see  a girl
 With long  blonde hair
 Right down  to there
 I escaped  from a  theater
 To see  a girl
 End on Fm.
