Topic: Take 5, Jase

Hi guys

A song for JasonHague who provides such excellent lyrics.  A troubled young man but I suspect a heart of gold.  I hope you/he don't mind any liberty taken with this but I just kind of went off on one!  I don't intend to imply that there is a huge drugs habit involved but the idea came from comments made by Jase in his posts/songs.

Drugs are bad, mmmkay?

Cheers and enjoy

About 67Bpm (I found a metronome)

Just Take 5Undefined


Verse 1


Gotta [Am]slow down m8


2 [E]stay in this race


But the [F]only time u can deal with real


Is [Am]time u spend [E]off ur face


[Am]Line it up, [E]huff it down


[F]White stuff, top lip


[Am]Make u look just [E]like a Clown




Chorus


[G]Just [D]take [C]5

Not [G]whisky [D]or [C]wine

[G]Just [D]take [C]5


That’s [C]all [D]u [G]need




Bridge


So [Bm]work it o[G]ut with [D] [Dsus4] [D]ur [A]guitar


U [Bm]rite so [G]good u cud [D]b a [A]star



[G]Feels so [D]right, [F]guitar in [D]hand


[G]Make that m[D]usic, [F]learn to [A]stand




Verse 2


[Am]Can’t stumble through life


[E]Thinking it’s cool


[F]High chair, school seat,


[Am]Park bench, [E]bar stool


Ain’t p[Am]rogress made


Ur s[E]tanding still

I'm fine, mate thanks (apart from being freezing).  Glad to hear you're doing ok and like the song says, you don't need that stuff to get you through the day.  Mind you, a fit bird on your arm does help!

Be cool

I'm from Grimsby, a certified Codhead!  Just about an hour from yours.  Did you know I just had to read your post twice... ares and arse being so similar cool. 

I like the way you write - spelling words as you say them rather than how they should be spelt.  Makes it more interesting!

We are a tough breed on the east coast, must be something in the brown water of the Humber!

I been to your place a few times for the football - nice part of the world, no slapping involved lol!  You can get killed up here now for looking at someone the wrong way.  It's all to do with drugs, knives and idiocy.  Sounds like a song idea!

Hi Bonedaddy!

I must have slipped off the planet somewhere to miss this one.
Very very good. You got my Sunshine in one!
He does give the impression he is a dope head. Then he writes as he
does! Totally confusing sometimes.

Just like yourself " Codhead" lol
