D5                             F5          C5        D5
well the hammer goes down and the gun goes boom i'm alone again
D5                      F5               C5           A5
short time gone from this little bitty room and i'm back again
D5                     F5
everybody knows i was born a slave
      C5                         G5
there ain't no master like the things you crave
D5                              F5       C5           D5
you gotta have a soul to have a soul to save and be born again

well my bell done cracked and i know that it's never gonna ring again
my throat's so dry and the note's so high i'll never sing again
close my eyes and the blood just pounds
little black circle goes round and around
around and around and around and around and around again

D5                F5              C5                              G5
short time here, long time gone, gotta find a star you can wish upon
D5                         F5      C5           D5
wish that you'll live to see another dawn, and wish again

D5                                  A5
hey mama it's a funtime, all alone in my mind
D5
yeah baby it's a funtime

my love done gone, world gone wrong
gnawing on my brain like a dog on a bone
it's brown like tobacco the train on track says funtime

well i got me a girl and a thing full of liquor and another girl
flipped my brain and lost my train just thinkin about the world
see me crying with my blue jeans on
you're gnawing on my brain like a dog on a bone
brown like tobacco the train on track says funtime

well i lost my palace but i found my nerve with a potion
and a girl who'd wiggle a thing in the middle of a motion
i found that girl with the golden hair
underneath a plumber in his old corvair
no i never let her up to get a breath of air i'm on the road again

short time here, long time gone, gotta find a star you can wish upon
and wish that you'll live to see another dawn, and wish again

hey mama it's a funtime, all alone in my mind
yeah baby it's a funtime

luck done gone, world gone wrong
you're gnawing on my brain like a dog on a bone
brown like tobacco the train on the track says funtime

well my love done gone, world gone wrong
gnawing on my brain like a dog on a bone
brown like tobacco, the train on the track says funtime

it's a funtime, all alone in my mind
yeah baby it's a funtime

my love done gone, world gone wrong
gnawing on my brain like a dog on a bone
brown like tobacco the train on the track says funtime
