by Jim Pembroke. Album: Corporal Cauliflowers Mental Function (1977)
Bb                            Eb                      Cm
Oh my dear sweet Igor I wanna ticket for your social do
Bb                                                     F7sus4   F7
And I'm sorry that I've come so late I hope you understand
Bb                             Eb                          Cm
That I been lately coming down With those same ol' nowhere blues
Bb                           F                    Bb
And I'm begging for a little hold And a better view

Tried to book it all last summer
All this winter too
And if I miss it, well I just don't know
What I will do
Yes I been lately comin' down
With those same ol' nowhere blues
And I'm begging for a little hold
And a better view

Gm                                   Cm
Coz I been dreamin' 'bout it Night and day
F                  Bb     /A
and in the morning too
Gm                                  Cm
And though I know that I've Missed part one,
Eb                  F
got to see part two
F
'cos we been standing out here in the cold 
thinking 'bout what to do 
and we're begging for
A better hold
(and a little view)

Riff:(d f  eb  d  c    d   bb    )
