Sometimes a Jimi Thing slides my way and keeps me swingin'

I'd like to show you what's inside

A-G-F#-F                A-G-F#-F
I shouldn't care if you do or don't like it

E
Brother, chaos rule all about

A-G-F#-F                          A-G-F#-F
Sometimes I walk there well, yes, God knows sometimes I take a bus there

E                                A
I shouldn't care, shouldn't care bereaved as I'm feelin'

The day is done, I'm on my back...
