Dexateens - Can You Whoop It

Capo IV


Em..............G........D
i like ronnie dio and i like vasoline

.....A...............C..............G
and i enjoy the feeling of a sharp crease in my jeans

Em............................................D....................C
and i can see you smiling boy so here's a simple question

..............G
can you whoop it

..............D
can you whoop it

my daddy's name is elton, my momma's name is jean
my car's a chevy nova and my woman's seventeen
she moved into my place cause her parents intervened
now can you whoop it
tell me can you whoop it

rocks are for the honest guns are for the wise
lies are for the frightened for the blind man his supplies
and i live in the space created by your compromise
so can you whoop it
tell me can you whoop it

Dexateens - Grandaddy's Mouth

D.....................Am.................C
fanning out the flames

..............G................D
trying to put the fire out

....................Am
driving hard rain

.........C.............................G..............D
won't put those hot coals out

digging deep again
trying to get past a man's skin
forget what lies within
cause we all bleed crimson out

Am............C..........D.............Am
no one can say it's just down south

Am.....C................D...........Am
can't explain grandaddy's mouth

Am......C................D.............Am
if your words ain't no damn good

...............G
you're no good

bury in the shame
trying to find someone to blame
friends that come and change
but spread those fires out

no one can say it's just down south
can't explain grandaddy's mouth
if your words ain't no damn good
you're no good

.......Am......................C
and good for one thing we

...................Am
can't do without

...............C
one thing we

....................Am
can't do without

...............C......................G
one thing we can't do without

no one can say it's just down south
can't explain grandaddy's mouth
if your words ain't no damn good
you're no good

Dexateens - New Boy

Capo II

G
somebody gonna make a change

Am
sometimes it's hard to change

C......................................................G
changing from something you've always been

well I'm standing out in the rain
you won't hear me complain
nobody said get out from under it

C................................D
I wanna be a new boy but I don't belong

G.....................G/F#.................Em
standing here in Mobile picking someone else's songs

C..............................D....................G
I wanna be a new boy but I can't regret

my body's gonna go that way
but I'm probably gonna stay the same
cause walking the line it ain't that interesting

if I'm standing out in the rain
I won't stand there and complain
we're all gonna get wet and put away

I wanna be a new boy but I don't belong
standing here in Mobile picking someone else's songs
I wanna be a new boy but I can't regret

I wanna be a new boy but I don't belong
standing here in Mobile writing someone else's songs
I wanna be a new boy but I can't regret

I wanna be a new boy but I can't regret

Dexateens - Neil Armstrong

...........G...G/F#...Em
Well its cold in July

..................C.............G
when youre up in the sky

....................C................G
and theres no atomosphere

.............C.................D
and you cant hear a thing

Well the view is delightful
but youre air is a cycle
and if you want to call earth
its a six minute delay

So come down, down, down
from the moon Neil Armstrong
youve been up there too long
and its time to come home

Come down, down down,
it will all seem familiar
well be patient till youre
used to gravity again

Well it cant be fun
looking for love in a crater
looking for friend in youre radar
moon rocks must get old

Well it cant be easy
trading infinite for airshows
your eagle for a volvo
but youve got to decide soon

So come down, down, down
from the moon Neil Armstrong
youve been up there too long
and its time to come home

Come down, down down,
it will all seem familiar
well be patient till youre
used to gravity again


Em............................G
The moon wont mind if you go

C...........................Em
twenty-five years pass below

Em.............................G
the moon wont mind if you go

C............................D
twenty-five years pass below

Nobody knows
