Kickstand Song

G A/C# D Dmaj7 G Bm
D A7sus D A
(note: between the G and the Bm, 
there might be some kind of F# 
chord, but i'm not sure)

   G  Gm D   A  G
or Bm
Up until now my ideas have been 
latent
    Bm      A/C#       D         
The cycling world will never be 
        Bm  A
the same
    G    Gm    D     A       G
    F# or Bm
But come first light I'll be taking 
out a patent
    Bm   A    D
And from that day
     Bm      A           G      
If a bike be found lying on the 
D      Em
ground again
           A       Bm G
I'm not to blame

     D   Bm    A               
What joy it'll bring, piece of 
Em          A
metal and a spring
        Bm                    
Bolted down by the back wheel, 
     G
activated by the heel
     D   Bm    A               
What joy it'll bring, piece of 
Em          A
metal and a spring

     G            A          
What chicken laid the egg from 
            D           Em
whence inside an idea hatches?

     G            A               
From prototype to production lines
        D                 Em
 to the first one hundred batches
G             F#                 
I will do for parking bikes what 
Em               A
anchors did for sailing
     D   Bm    A               
What joy it'll bring, piece of 
Em    A     D    Dsus D A D
metal and a spring

A Asus A D A

        G      Gm       D        A
                      F#
There's handle bars for steering and
 there's tire tread for traction
  Bm   A/C#     D           Em
 A
A tiny bell for friends you pass and
 greet
     G   Gm   D   A     G      
But when they add my ingenious 
           F#
contraption
Bm     A/C# D
Mouths will fall
     Bm           A        G     
And eyebrows will rise and 
   D        Em
staring eyes will meet
         A         Bm G
The bike complete

     D   Bm    A                
What joy it'll bring, piece of 
Em         A
metal and a spring
       Bm                     
Bolted down by the back wheel, 
 G
activated by the heel
     D   Bm    A               
What joy it'll bring, piece of 
Em          A
metal and a spring

            G           A         
There'll be articles in newspapers
     D              Em
 and dinners at the town hall
   G                   A      
My first check's for a thousand 
             D                Em
bucks, now that's one spicy meatball
    G                F#           
But all the fame and fortune in 
  Em               A
the world will not compare
       D    Bm   A                Em
   A
To the joy it'll bring, piece of 
metal and a spring
G        F  D
Spring

    G                A            
Now bikes around the world can 
    D                   Em
stand alone without their owners
    G               A          D 
And I can get some cash on the 
                     Em
side but that's just a bonus
      G                F#         
When underneath their helmets I 
   Em                A
will see their smiling faces
     D   Bm    A               
What joy it'll bring, piece of 
Em    A     D
metal and a spring
         G    Gm     D       Bm A
Gm D
Piece of metal and a spring
