(
capo 3)
Difficult to know what's happening on the opening chord. Ideas gratefully received.
Basically sounds like a sort of G chord os some sort chugging along to me.
G
Oh my, that road sign says 50 miles to Poughkeepsie
And she said, it's you and only you, baby blue
Who can bring out the gypsy in me
You know, I want to be one of the lost, the young and the golden
A G D
And if we get us a triple beam, we'll be rolling
A
Rolling

verse 2
G
Good trips and bad trips
We're still gonna hold our lips to the chalice
Even when the scales are tipped, I'd never hurt you baby
It's your virtue that hangs in the balance
I've only wanted to be one of the young, the lost, and the golden
A G D
And if we get us a triple beam, we'll be rolling
A
Rolling
