COCAMAMIE BUSINESS
By George Harrison
Transcribed by Petteri Järvinen
Am
Bust my back on the Levy - broke my strings on the BBC
Dm C E7 G
Found my chops on Eel Pie Island - paid my dues at the Marquee
Am Dm
Slagged off by the N.M.E. - lost my stash and my virginity
Dm E7 Am
In this Cockamamie Business
Am
Got my face on Ed Sullivan - broke my heart on the Soul Train
Dm C E7 G
Introduced to Bad Company - lost cells down at Brain Drain
Am Dm
And before I could mend - lost the missus, missed the girlfriend
Dm E7 Am
In this Cockamamie Business
Am
Now we like to air condition - though the air has no ozone ring
Dm C
Still they're chopping down the forest for McDonalds and the Burger
E7 G
King
Am Dm
Eating cows with such persistance - doesn't offer much resistance
Dm E7 Am
To this Cockamamie Business
Am
There are too many things - stressing out the nervous system
Dm C E7 G
Girls you used to know - fellas that may have kissed'em
Am Dm
Some got rabies - Some got fleas - some got incurable diseases
Dm E7 Am
>From this Cockamamie Business
Am
Everybody's after as many points as they can get
Dm
As long as it's not them that has to pay
C E7 G
No one really minds the Debt
Am Dm
5-Star actors, tax inspectors, film producers and directors
Dm E7 Am
With their Cockamamie Business
Am
Well you do what you can - can't do much more than that
(No you can't do what he just said)
Dm C E7 G
Some days you're pretty sharp - on other days you feel half dead
(While you make your daily bread)
Am Dm
Didn't want to be a star - wanted just to play guitar
Dm E7 Am
In this Cockamamie Business
