COULDN’T GET IT RIGHT
Climax Blues Band (Derek Holt)
Intro: Bm-A-Bm (3x)
Bm Bm-A-G
Time was driftin', this rock had got to roll
Bm G-A-Bm
So I hit the road and made my getaway
Bm Bm-A-G
Restless feeling, I really gotta hold
E
I started searching for a better way
Chorus:
D A Em
And I kept on looking for a sign in the middle of the night
F# > G D
A G
But I couldn't see the light--, no I couldn't see the light--
D A Em
I kept on looking for a way to take me through the ni—ght
G E (bass walk:
G F# E)
But I couldn't get it right, no I couldn't get it right--
LA fever, made me feel alright
But I must admit it got the best of me
Gettin' down, so deep I nearly drowned
I can't get back to where I used to be
Chorus
Solo over Verse
New York City, took me with the tide
I nearly died from hospitality
Left me stranded and took away my pride
Just another know-it-all fatality
(Chorus 3X to fade)
