| Em6 Cmaj7 B7 Em | Em6 Cmaj7 B7
L[Em]eadbelly?s in the background being drowned [D]out by the grind
He?s singing ?bout[C] ?Rock Island Line? nobody se[Em]ems to pay him any mind
[Em]Bestsellers and bookshelves full of se[D]lf-help printed word
Some faint [C]elegance is heard, now was th[Em]at Ellington or Bird?
[C]And has it really come to[D] this? Can ignoran[Bm]ce [Em]be bliss?
I?m waiting [D]for - [Bm] the other sh[Em]oe to drop
[Em6]Jazz at the [Cmaj7]bookstore and[B7] Blues in t[Em]he coffee shop
Em6 Cmaj7 B7 Em | Em | Em |
Jazz at the bookstore and Blues in the coffee shop
There?s a[Em] man standing at the crossroads with a[D] dark roast in his hand
He?s livin? in[C] white yuppy land over by[Em] the milk and sugar stand
[C]And have I really come fo[D]r this, cup of caf[Bm]fen[Em]ated bliss?
So we browse a[Cmaj7]round all over[Am7] town sipping c[Em]offees that we can?t pronounce
And m[Cmaj7]eanwhile in the Blues Cemetery al[B7]l the coffins commence to bounce
| Em | Em | Em | Em |
[Em]Leadbelly?s in the cold ground roll[D]ing over in his grave
The hard road where [C]so many slaved is now so s[Em]mooth and paved
[C]And has it really come to[D] this? Can ignoran[Bm]ce [Em]be bliss?
I?m waiting [D]for - [Bm] the other sh[Em]oe to drop
[Em6]Jazz at the [Cmaj7]bookstore and[B7] Blues in t[Em]he coffee shop
[Em6]Jazz at the [Cmaj7]bookstore and[B7] Blues in t[Em]he coffee shop
[Em6]Jazz at the [Cmaj7]bookstor[B7]e - Blues in the[Em] coffee shop
