LATHER
(Grace Slick)
(Intro)
Am Fmaj7b5 Am A9(no 3rd) Am
(Verse)
Am C G
Lather was 30 years old today
Em D C
They took away all of his toys
Am C G
His mother sent newspapers clippings to him
Em D C
About his old friends who'd stop being boys
Em D F D
There was Howard C Green just turned 33
C Em D
His leather chair waits at the bank
Em D F D
And Sgt. Dow Jones 27 years old
C Em D
Commanding his very own tank
C D Em
But Lather still finds it a nice thing to do
C D Em
To lie about nude in the sand
C D E
Drawing pictures of mountains that look like bumps
D Asus2
And thrashing the air with his hands
A G
But wait old Lather's productive you know
A G A
He produces the finest of sound
A G
Putting drumsticks on either side of his nose
A G A
Snorting the best licks in town
(nose solo)
Am G Am E
But that's all over
(Intro)
Am Fmaj7b5 Am A9(no 3rd) Am
(Verse)
Am C G
Lather was 30 years old today
Em D C
And lather came foam from his tongue
Am C G
He looked at me eyes wide and plainly say
Em D C
Is is true that I'm no longer young?
Em D F D
And the children call him famous
C Em D
What the old men call insane
Em D F D
And sometimes he's so nameless
C Em D
That he hardly know what game to play
C
Which words to say
C D Em
And I should have told him no you're not old
C D E D Asus2
And I should have let him go on smiling baby wide
(Ending)
Am G Am E
