Brian Wilson

Capo 3rd fret
G     D               Am7
Drove downtown in the rain,  
nine-thirty on a Tuesday night
G        D                    
Just to check out the late-night 
     Bm7        Am7
record shop
G       D               
Call it impulsive, call it 
     Am7
compulsive, call it insane
G        D                     
When I'm surrounded I just 
Bm7            Am7
can't stop

It's a matter of instinct, It's a 
matter of conditioning,
It's a matter of fact
You can call me Pavlov's dog
Ring a bell and I'll salivate -- 
how'd you like that
Dr. Landy tell me you're not just a 
pedagogue
'Cause right now I'm

Chorus
G        D                Am7
Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson

         G          D         
Well I'm lying in bed just like 
          Em
Brian Wilson did

So I'm lying here  Just staring at 
the ceiling tiles
And I'm thinking about what to think
 about
Just listening and re-listening to 
Smiley Smile
And I'm wondering if this is some 
kind of creative drought ?cause I'm

Chorus

Bridge 1
Am7                D              
And if you want to find me I'll be
 F          Em
 out in the sandbox
Am7                  D           
Wondering where the hell all the 
G       F      Am7
love has gone
           D                  
Playing my guitar and building 
  F             Em    Am7
castles in the sun
    D            G
And singing "Fun Fun Fun"

Chorus

Bridge 2
Am      Em7   (rpt.)
I had a dream that I was three 
hundred pounds
And though I was very heavy
I floated till I couldn't see the 
ground
I floated till I couldn't see the 
ground
Somebody help me, I couldn't see the
 ground
Somebody help me, I couldn't see the
 ground
Somebody help me because I'm
