Chords for Frank Zappa - Joe's garage

_ [E] We take you now to a [A] garage [E] in the motorpark. _ _ _ _ _
_ It wasn't very large, [A] there was just enough room [B] to cram the drums [E] in the corner over by the Dodge.
It [A] was a 54 [B] with a mashed up door [E] and a cheesy little lamp.
[A] With a sign on the front [B] said Fender Jet [E] and a second hand guitar.
It [A] was a Stratocaster [B] with a whammy bar. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] We could jam in Joe's garage.
[A] His mama was screaming, [B] his dad was mad.
[E] We was playing the same old song [A] in the afternoon.
[B] And [F#] sometimes we [E] would play it all night long.
[A] It was all we knew [B] and [F#] easy to do [E] so we wouldn't get it wrong.
[A] All we did [B] was bend the screen [E] like_
_ _ [A] _ _ [B]
Hey, [E] down in Joe's garage.
We [A] didn't have no go [B] for LSD [E] but a couple of quarts of beer.
[A] Would fix it so [B] the insulation [E] would pop up engineer.
[A] Had the same old chords [B] going over [E] and over, the famous symphony.
[A] We could play it again [B] and again and again [E] cause it sounded good to me.
_ One more time.
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [B] _
[E] We could jam in Joe's garage.
[A] His mama was screaming, [B] turn it down.
[E] We was playing the same old song [A] in the afternoon.
[B] And sometimes we [E] would play it all night long.
[A] It was all we knew [B] and easy to [E] do so we wouldn't get it wrong.
_ [A] Even if we played [B] it on the tracks of home.
[E] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] We thought we was pretty good.
[A] We talked about keeping [B] the band together [E] and we figured that we should.
[A] Cause about this time [Bm] we was getting the eye [E] from the girls in the neighborhood.
[A] They don't come [B] over and dance around like_
[N] _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] [E] So we kicked out a stupid name.
[A] Had some cards printed [B] up for a couple of bucks [E] and we was on our way to vain.
[A] Got matching [B] suits, equal [E] boots and a [G#m] sign on the back [C#m] of the car.
[E] [A] And we was ready to [B] work in the club all night.
[N] One, two, three, four, let's see who gets [E] the ball.
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [B] _
_ [E] People seemed to like our song.
[A] They got up and [B] danced and made a lot of [E] noise and it wasn't for very long.
[A] A guy from the [B] company we had named [E] said we ought to take his band.
[B] [A] And sat on the [B] line for a real good [E] time but he didn't tell us when.
[A] His new job [B] would be something [E] that was really happening.
[A] So the band broke up and [B] it looks like _ [E] we will never play again.
_ Guess you [N] only get one chance in life to [B] play a song that [E] goes like_
Well [A] _ [C#] _ [B] _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ [B] _ [E] _ [A] _ _ [G#m] _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ [G#m] _
[E] the years are rolling by.
_ [A] And in Maryland they [E] don't draw dead, awful, ugly guys.
Hey, [A] smarty boy, get this big [E] car.
Really fly, _ [A] but there ain't got that [E] physical thing.
And the way it came along.
[A] And all of a sudden I found this [E] guy.
And he's a bad old song.
[A] He used to play a joke and [E] lie.
And if I had my bra, [A] he would soon be dancing to [E] that.
I _ _ _ [A] _ _ [B] _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ [N] _ _
[E] am the _ _ [A] king _
[E] _ _ of _ [A] _ _ [E] _
the world.

She has a smile.
Surround her.

[A] _
[B] Unhand [E] me, you moron.
Move it.
_ [A] _ _ [E] _
This is the syndrome.
[N] Rotenizer.
That was Joe's first confrontation with the law.
Naturally, we were easy on him.
One of our friendly counselors gave him a donut.
And told him to stick close to church orities. _ _
