Good Captain Clack    (intro)    (sample)

      G                  Em     Am                   D

1. Still scowling black, good Captain Clack,

      G                Em        Am  - D

    must eat his humble pie,

     G               G7    C               Cm

    his bed is made the colours fade,

     G                   Em         Am   - D

    his eyes once wet and dry.

 

      G              Em    Am                   D

2. The naked muse who sits and chews,

G               Em   Am   - D

    tobacco off a tree,

          G               G7     C                 Cm

    removes his shoes, gives way to booze,

      G                   D        G

    and searches endlessly.

 

     Eb                   Bb               Ab                Eb

    See the naked jumberlack, sip his aphrodisiac,

     F                    Bb

    cotton-picking farmers three.

        Eb                     Bb                  Ab                   Eb

    Though I lost my weather vane, and of sense I have one grain,

     F                            Bb

    I'm content sipping lemon tea.

      G                Em        Am  - D

    must eat his humble pie,

     G               G7    C               Cm

    his bed is made the colours fade,

           G              Em       Gm

    his eyes once wet and dry.
