Brian Wilson
Barenaked Ladies
Capo 3rd fret
G D Am7 G
Drove downtown in the rain nine-thirty on a Tuesday night
D Bm C
Just to check out the late-night record shop
G D Am7
Call it impulsive, call it compulsive, call it insane
G D Bm C
But when I'm surrounded I just can't stop
G D Am7
It's a matter of instinct, it's a matter of conditioning, it's a matter of fact
G D Bm C
You can call me Pavlov's dog
G D Am7
Ring a bell and I'll salivate, how'd you like that?
G D Bm C
Doctor Landy, tell me you're not just a pedagogue, cause right now I am
G D Am7
Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
G D Em Em/C | Em/C# | Em/C | Em | Em/C | Em/C# | Em/C |
Well, I'm lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
G D Am7 G
So I'm lying here, just starting at the ceiling tiles
D Bm C
And I'm thinking about, oh, what to think about
G D Am7 G
Just listening and re-listening to Smiley Smile
D Bm C
And I'm wondering if this is some kind of creative drought, because
G D Am7
I'm lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
G D Em Em/C | Em/C# | Em/C | Em | Em/C | Em/C# | Em/C |
Well, I'm lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did.
Am D F Em
And if you want to find me I'll be out in the sandbox
Am D G F
Just wondering where the hell all the love has gone
Am D F Em
Playing my guitar and building castles in the sun
Am D G
and singing "Fun, Fun, Fun"
D Am7
I'm lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
G D Em Em/C | Em/C# | Em/C | Em | Em/C | Em/C# | Em/C |
Well, I'm lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did.
Am E7 Am E7 Am E7 Am
I had a dream that I was three hundred pounds and though I was very heavy
E7 Am
I floated 'til I couldn't see the ground
E7 Am E7
I floated 'til I couldn't see the ground
Am E7
Somebody help me, I couldn't see the ground
Am E7
Somebody help me, couldn't see the ground
Am E7
Somebody help me because I'm
G D Am7
Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
G D Em Em/C | Em/C# | Em/C |
Well, I'm lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
G D Am7 G
Drove downtown in the rain nine-thirty on a Tuesday night
D Bm C
Just to check out the late-night record shop
G D Am7
Call it impulsive, you can call it compulsive, you can call it insane
G D Bm
But when I'm surrounded I just can't stop
| Em | Em/C | Em/C# | Em/C | (repeat to end)
