Hey Jack Kerouac, I think of your mother
F#m G
and the tears she cried, they were cried for none other
D G/D
than her little boy lost in a little world that hated
F#m G
and that dared to drag him down, her little boy courageous
A
who chose his words from mouths of babes got lost in the wood
G A
Hip flask slinging madman, steaming cafe flirts
G
they all spoke through you.
D G/D
Hey Jack, now for the tricky part,
F#m G
when you were the brightest star, who were the shadows?
D G/D
Of the San Francisco beat boys you were the favorite.
F#m G
Now they sit and rattle their bones and think of their blood stoned days.
A
You chose your words from mouths of babes got lost in the wood
G A
The hip flask slinging madman, steaming cafe flirts,
G D
in Chinatown howling at night.
D G/D
Allen baby, why so jaded?
F#m G
Have the boys all grown up and their beauty faded?
D G/D
Billy, what a saint they've made you,
F#m G
just like Mary down in Mexico on All Souls' Day.
A
You chose your words from mouths of babes got lost in the wood
G A
Cool junk booting madmen, street minded girls
G
in Harlem, howling at night.
G D
What a tear stained shock of the world,
F/C G D
you've gone away babe, without sayin&rsquo , saying goodbye.
