Head on Straight Graham Parker
Head On Straight by Graham Parker
I picked this up by listening to the song on the radio, (I don't actually own the song
so there may be some differences in the lyrics and one or two chords. Please correct me
I'm wrong. It's a great song for a recovering alcoholic like me.
[C]I had my day in the [C7]sun
Then it ra[F]ined every d[Fm7]ay
Every d[D]ay was no f[D9]un
But th[C]ings are looking u[E]p of l[A]ate[A7]
[F]Now I?ve got my he[Fm7]ad on stra[C]ight.[G]
I had my week in the news
But I?m old news now
I?m not the new they choose
But things are looking up of late,
Now I?ve got my head on straight.
[C]You put that s[A#]ugar in my c[C]up
[A]You came and stood m[A7]y spirits [F]up
You took that mo[A#]nkey off my ba[C]ck
And now I?m feel[A]ing back o[A7]n tra[F]ck
Oh yeh.
I lost it all in the crash
I lost all I had
I lost all my cash
But things are looking up of late,
Now I?ve got my head on straight.
You put that sugar in my cup
You came and stood my spirits up
You took that monkey off my back
And now I?m feeling back on track
Oh yeh.
I spent my year on the roof
Gazing up at the stars
Thinking I was from Mars
But things are looking up of late,
Now you?ve put my head on straight.
