Sleepy Eyed Boy
John Prine
Ce chant est à 4 accords magiques! Il est montré ici dans la transposition originale: en le jouant avec des capo ou en le transposant, vous pouvez le ramener à Am, F, C, G.
Where are the boot straps To lift myself up? Where is the well Where I once filled my cup? Where does this sorrow All turn into joy? And where oh where is the sleepy eyed boy? Where is my true love When the wind starts to moan? Is she out in the wild Is she there all alone? Have I cast her aside Like an unwanted toy? Tell me where oh where is the sleepy eyed boy? He’s goin’ down the backroads In a cold pourin’ rain He’s a waitin’ for a postcard In the south coast of Spain Postmarked from a sweetheart Back in ol’ Illinois Sayin’ where oh where is my sleepy eyed boy? That’s pretty much it. The rest of the song follows that chord progression with segments of picking in between. Couldn’t find these chords anywhere so I thought I might as well take a swing at it.
