Key: A
Introduction:
Am C
The cigarettes and carrot juice
F G
Get yourself a new tattoo
Am C F G
For those sleeveless days of June
Am C
I'm sitting on the Cafe Zinho's steps
F G
With a book I haven't started yet
Am C F G
Watching all the girls walk by
G F
Could I take you out?
F Dm C G
I'd be yours without a doubt on that big dipper
G F
If the sound of this it frightens you
F Dm C G
We could play it real cool and act somewhat indifferent
Am C
And hey June, why'd you have to come
F G
Why'd you have to come around so soon?
Am C F G
I wasn't ready for all this nature
Am C F
The terrible green green grass and violent blooms
G
Of flowered dresses
Am C F G
And afternoons that make me sleepy
G F
But we could wait a while
F Dm C G
'Fore we push that dull turnstile into the passage
G F
Thousands they have tread
F Dm C G
And others sometimes fled before the turn came
G F
We could wait our lives
F Dm C G
Before a chance arrives, before the passage
G F
From the top you can see Monterey
F Dm C
Or think about San Jose though
G
I know it's not that pleasant
Am C F G
And hey Jim Kerouac, brother of the famous Jack
Am C F G
Or so he likes to say... Lucky bastard
Am C
He's sitting on the Cafe Zinho's steps
F G
With a girl I'm not over yet
Am C F G
Watching all the world go by
G F
Boy, you're looking bad
F Dm C G
Did I make you feel that sad? I'm honestly flattered
G F
But if she asked me out
F Dm C G
I'd be hers without a doubt on that big dipper
Am C F G
The cigarettes and carrot juice. Get yourself a new tattoo
Am C F G
For those sleeveless days of June
Am C
I'm sitting on the Cafe Zinho's steps
F G
I haven't got the courage yet
Am G
I haven't got the courage yet
