My Old Man Joni Mitchell
[Intro]
[D] [Esus4] [E] [A] [D/A] [A] [D/A]
[Verse]
[D] My old [Esus4]man
He's a [E]singer in[A] the pa[D/A]rk[A] [D/A]
[D] He's a walker in the r[Esus4]ain
He's a [E]dancer in the [Am7]dark
[D]We don't need no piece of [A7]paper
From the city [E7]hall
Keeping us [Emmaj7]tied and t[D/E]rue
[D] My [A]old [Esus4]man
[D/E]Keeping away my [A]blu[D/A]es[A] [D/A]
[Verse]
[D] He's my sunshine in the [Esus4]morning
He's my [E]fire[A]works at the [D/A]end of the [A]day[D/A]
[D] He's the warmest chord I [Esus4]ever heard
Play that w[Am7]arm chord, play and stay baby
[D]We don't need no piece of [A7]paper
From the city [E7]hall
Keeping us [Emmaj7]tied and [D/E]true
[D] My [A]old [Esus4]man
[D/E]Keeping away my [A]blu[D/A]es[A] [D/A]
[C-Part]
But when he's [G#m7]gone
Me and them [G#m9]lonesome blue[F#11#]s collid[F#]e
The [C#maj7]bed's too big
The [C#m7]frying pan's too [B]wide[Asus4] [D] [E] [A] [D/A]
[Verse]
[D] Then he comes h[Esus4]ome
And he [E]takes me [A]in[D/A] his loving arm[A]s[D/A]
[D] And he tells me all his [Esus4]troubles
[E] And he tell[Am7]s me all my charms
[D]We don't need no piece of [A7]paper
From the city [E7]hall
Keeping us [Emmaj7]tied and [D/E]true
[D] My [A]old [Esus4]man
[D/E]Keeping away my [A]blu[D/A]es[A] [D/A]
[C-Part]
But when he's [G#m7]gone
Me and them [G#m9]lonesome blue[F#11#]s collid[F#]e
The [C#maj7]bed's too big
The [C#m7]frying pan's too [B]wide[Asus4] [D] [E] [A] [D/A]
[Verse]
[D] My old [Esus4]man
He's a [E]singer in[A] the pa[D/A]rk[A] [D/A]
[D] He's a walker in the r[Esus4]ain
He's a [E]dan[Am7]cer in the dark
[D]We don't need no piece of [A7]paper
From the city [E7]hall
Keeping us [Emmaj7]tied and [D/E]true
[D] My [A]old [Esus4]man
[D/E]Keeping away my [A]lonesome[D/A] blu[A]es[D/A]
[Outro]
[A] [D/A] [A] [D/A] [A] [D/A] [A]
[A] [D/A] [A] [D/A] [A] [D/A] [A]
