F7                        Bb7
Sure like to boogie after death comes callin'
F7                         Bb7
Sure like rockin' when I'm far away
F7                            Bb7
"Ooh Pooh Pah Doo" is lettin' Jesse watch the heavens
F7                                 Bb7     F7
Paint another picture while you're turning grey

[Verse 2]
F7                          Bb7
Everything I knew about was always American
F7                              Bb7 F7
Skip a stone lightly and you'll be okay
F7                  Bb7
Never really get my rockin' feet to movin'
     F7                      Bb7   F7
Till somebody's singing "Not Fade Away"
F7                      Bb7   F7
Some cat's singin' "Not Fade Away"

[Chorus]
    Am7                G6
Got mystery train fever
    D7/F#
And I'm a believer
    Am7          G6
And go down Moses
         D7/F#
And I'll send you red roses
   Am7         G6          D7/F# Fmaj7
Despai---r and death at an early age

[Verse 3]
F7                              Bb7
You sang about truckin' and the band had it movin'
F7                            Bb7      F7
If you were a lizard then you might be gone
F7                             Bb7
A little self-indulgence never moved a mountain
F7                             Bb7          F7
Don't need the fiddler yellin' "Yeah, right on!"
F7                             Bb7          F7
Never need the fiddler yellin' "Yeah, right on!"

F7                     Bb7
You're my angel from a wet salvation
F7                             Bb7      F7
You can buy and sell me so you shine me on
F7                            Bb7
Your mama worked hard and the acid made you think about it
F7                         Bb7      F7
Why, mother water, are the days all gone
F7                         Bb7      F7
Why, mother water, are the days all gone
F7                         Bb7      F7
Why, mother water, are the days all gone
