There was a resolution pending on the United Nations floor
In reference to the question, "What's a peace keeping force for?"
Who believed it would be solved in a day?
No one who walked out of that building on the eighth of May
In their tired-suited, worn-eyed way.
I got a message from my sister, she just had a kid
I had to get to Copenhagen to see how she did
My haircut startled a Canadian, he called me a "skid"
Thought the charge for roaming international's well hid
Someone is listening on my phone when I show up on the grid
Me--I'm just a loner in a world full of kids - egos, and ids.
A year before and we were getting in, getting bottled in Cork
On television, Congress crying about abusing the pork
I told the bartender we were all from New York
Sometimes the path of least resistance will gain you the most
Well, more than trying to map the distance up and down the East Coast
When you're in Munich making music, raise your glass and say, "Probst!"
Make it easy on your host
(Solo - Alternate between F and C four times, hammer-on and
pull-off pinky on third fret B string and index first fret
high E string, listen to the song for the rhythm.)
Over mountains and far away
Your tribuneral mockeries of justice still dog my steps
Until I see that next smiling face
A little good will goes a mighty long way
A little good will goes a mighty long way
I finally made it up to Sweden to see Little Dove
Some folk remembered our last meeting and bore me no grudge
And from the bartender, complimentary mugs
Oh, if only I could stay a while, what am I afraid of?
All this psychic damage of all the years I'm made of
Tell the bartender, I think I'm falling in love
Tell the bartender, I think I'm falling in love
Tell the bartender, I think I'm falling in love
Tell the bartender, I think I'm falling in love
Tell the bartender, I think I'm falling in love
Tell the bartender, I think I'm falling in love
Tell the bartender, I think I'm falling in love
Tell the bartender, I think I'm falling in love
Tell the bartender, I think I'm falling in love
Tell the bartender, I think I'm falling in love
Tell the bartender, I think I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
Notes:
The last on each of the verses should be an power chord on low E, rather than
a open/barre chord.
The last during the bridge is similar.
All of the chords during the bridge except the last should be barred from the A string,
e.g. - x0221x, - x13331x, - x35553, - x57765, - x79987
Last chord - xx3210
