Brian Wilson (CAPO ON 3RD FRET)
[Verse 1]
G D Am7 G
Drove downtown in the rain, 9:30 on a Tuesday night
D Bm7 Am7
Just to check out the late night record shop
G D Am7
Call it impulsive, call it compulsive, call it insane
G D Bm7 Am7 G
But when I'm surrounded I just can't stah-op
D Am7 G
It's a matter of instinct, it's a matter of conditioning, a matter of fact
D Bm7 Am7 G
You can call me Pavlov's dog
D Am7 G
Ring a bell and I'll salivate, well how'd you like that
D Bm7 Am7
Dr. Landy tell me you're not just a pedagogue, 'cause right now I'm
[Chorus]
G D Am7
Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
G D Em Em/C Em/C# Em/C G
Well I'm, lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
[Verse 2]
D Am7 G
Well I'm lying here, just staring at the ceiling tiles
D Bm7 Am7 G
And I'm thinking about, whoa what to think about
D Am7 G
Just listening and relistening to smiley smile
D Bm7 Am7
And I'm wondering if this is some kind of creative drought, because I'm
[Chorus]
G D Am7
Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
G D Em Em/C Em/C# Em/C
Well I'm, lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
Em/C Em/C# Em/C
Whoa
[Bridge]
Am7 D F Em
And if you wanna find me I'll be out in the sandbox
Am7 D G F Am7
Just wondering where the hell all the love has gah-ah-ahn
D F Em Am7
Playing my guitar and building castles in the sun, whoa-whoa-oh-oh
D G
And singing fun, fun, fun
[Chorus]
G D Am7
Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
G D Em Em/C Em/C# Em/C
Well I'm, lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
Em/C Em/C# Em/C Am
Whoa
[Bridge]
Em7 Am Em7 Am
I had a dream that I was three hundred pounds
Em7 Am Em7 Am
And though I was very heavy I floated 'til I couldn't see the ground
Em7 Am Em7
I floated 'til I couldn't see the ground
Am Em7
Somebody help me (I couldn't see the ground)
Am Em7
Somebody help me (I couldn't see the ground)
Am E7
Somebody help meeeeee, because I'm
[Chorus]
G D Am7
Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
G D Em Em/C Em/C# Em/C
Well I'm, lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did
[Verse 3]
G D Am7 G
Drove downtown in the ray-ee-ain, 9:30 on a Tuesday night
D Bm7 Am7 G
Just to check out the late night record shop (late night record shop)
D Am7
Call it impulsive, call it compulsive, or call it insane (whoa-oh)
G D Bm7 Cmaj7
'Cause when I'm surrounded I just can't stah-ah-ah-p
