Six String Orchestra
Words and Music by Harry Chapin
a funny, cute little song...it came to my attention when Scooter (in the muppet show)
it in the starwars special...
not sure this is 100% correct, but it sounds pretty ok to me...
...enjoy
D Em
The very day I purchased it I christened my guitar
A D
As my monophonic symphony six string orchestra
D Em
In my room I'd practice late, and they'd leave me alone
A G A
D
My mother said, "You're nothin' yet, to make the folks write home."
F#m Em
I'd play at all the talent nights, I'd finish, they'd applaud
Bm F#m E
A
Some called in muffled laughter, I just figured they were awed
D Em
So I went up for an encore, but they screamed they'd had enough
A G A D
or, maybe I just need a group to help me do my stuff
G D
And so I dream a bass will join me and fill the bottom in
G D E A
And maybe now some lead guitar so it would not sound so thin
Ab G D
Bm
I need some drums to set the beat and help me keep in time
Em A G A
D
And way back in the distance some strings would sound so fine
G D D7
And we'd all play together like fine musicians should
G D E A
And it would sound like music and the music would sound good
Ab G D
Bm
But in real life I'm stuck with that same old formula
Em A Em (individual notes:
- D - A - F# - D - A)
Me and my monophonic symphony six string
D
orchestra
D Em
I write love songs for my favorite girl and sing 'em soft and slow
A D
But before I get to finish she says she has to go
Em
She's nice and say, "Excuse me, I've got to find a bar
A G A D
I think I need refreshment 'fore I hear you play guitar."
F#m Em
I sent a demo tape I made to the record companies
Bm F#m E A
Two came back address unknown, one came back C.O.D.
D Em
Of course I got form letters all sayin' pleasant things
A G A
D
Like suggesting I should find a trade where I would not have to sing
G D
And so I dream a bass will join me and fill the bottom in
G D E A
And maybe now some lead guitar so it would not sound so thin
Ab G D
Bm
I need some drums to set the beat and help me keep in time
Em A G A
D
And way back in the distance some strings would sound so fine
G D D7
And we'd all play together like fine musicians should
G D E A
And it would sound like music and the music would sound good

D Em
I've been takin' guitar lessons but my teacher just took leave
A D
It was something about a breakdown or needing a reprieve
Em
I know I've found my future so I will persevere
A G A D
And hold on to my dream of makin' music to their ears
G D
And so I dream a bass will join me and fill the bottom in
G D E A
And maybe now some lead guitar so it would not sound so thin
