Electric Trains

INTRO:  Cm F Cm F

           Cm                F    
When I was crowned a mummy's boy 
            Cm            F
by friends I didn't like
         Cm               F    
I made a million trips to school 
          Cm             F
upon my father's bike
          Bb              Cm  
I used to sit between his legs, 
               Eb             Dm Cm
perched on a piece of wood
           Bb        Cm           
If it ever rained on us, I'd slip 
Eb      Dm  Cm   G Cm
beneath his hood
                          F  Ab F
And at home the radio was on

Life was all fun and games
             Ab/Bb Eb/Bb Bb      
I was out of my    head      and 
           Ab/Bb Eb/Bb Bb
underneath my    bed
              G         Cm   Ab
Playing with electric trains


            Cm         F
At home the stereo was on

My head was filled with rock
           Cm             F
I played a willow cricket bat guitar
    Cm               F
And soloed round the clock
   Cm                 F
My records stacked up in a pile
   Cm              Ab
Collected from the charts
           F   Bb
And Top of the Pops

BRIDGE:

G
Kneeling with torchlight

Shining before me
C
In my bed my eyeballs stuck in 
readers wives
Eb
Pubic hairs proudly counted everyday
F                                 
Manhood took me slowly out into 
        Bb
the milky way

             Cm                  F
I chased the girls and made them cry
             Cm           F
My hair grew down my back
            Cm            F
The passing of my teenage years
               Cm          F
Was spent down in the sack
         Bb                  Cm
I played guitar and formed a band
           Eb             Dm Cm
I puked up all night long
          Bb              Cm
As people came to sit and stare
              Eb      Dm Cm    G Cm
While I raced through my songs
                             F
The sound of music passed me by
     Ab            F   Bb
Just like the Grateful Dead
