Brian wilson Barenaked Ladies
[G]Drove [D]downtown in the [Am7]rain, 9:30 on a Tuesday [G]night
Just to [D]check out the late night [Bm7]record [Am7]shop
[G]Call it im[D]pulsive, call it com[Am7]pulsive, call it insane
[G]But when I'm sur[D]rounded I just can't [Bm7]stah-[Am7]op
(This progression continues throughout the slow intro)
It's a matter of instinct, it's a matter of conditioning, a matter of fact

CHORUS:
Lying in [D]bed just like [Am7]Brian Wilson did
Well I'm,[G] lying in [D]bed just like Brian [Em]Wilson did
(Progression for the verse is the same as intro. Just listen to the song
to get the proper rythym and tempo)

[Am]Somebody help me ([E7]I couldn't see the ground)
[Am]Somebody help meee[E7]eee, because I'm
CHORUS
(With lots of angst, repeat intro)
[G]Drove [D]downtown in the ray-ee-[Am7]ain, 9:30 on a Tuesday [G]night
Just to [D]check out the late night [Bm7]record [Am7]shop (late night record [G]shop)
Call it im[D]pulsive, call it com[Am7]pulsive, or call it insane (whoa-oh)
[G] [D] [Bm7] [Cmaj7]
'Cause when I'm surrounded I just can't stah-ah-ah-p
The outro is a Secret Agent Man sort of thingy based in Em that goes as
follows:
