took a walk down to Freddy's Bar[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nWhile my wife and kid were asleep[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nI used to go there almost every night[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nWhen I was young and free[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nNot that I'm unfairly constrained[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nHeld against my will[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nBut this is back when it didn't matter[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nWhat time I stayed out until[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]                                            [ch]C[/ch]\r\nNow it matters, because my son gets me up at 5am each day[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]                                                [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd you don't argue with someone who's got their finger in your eye[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nFreddy's has a backroom[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nTo play music in, or to listen[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]

[ch]G[/ch]\r\nPair of TV's playing day-long video collages that Donald dreamed up[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nDonald runs the place[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nHe gave me a shot on the way in the other night[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nHe always does,and he always did[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nIt's what makes Freddy's feel right[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]

is[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd whether it's Donald's night at the bar[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nWhen they move the pool tables out of the way[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nAnd the TV's lose their glow[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nThey start playing music in Freddy's Backroom[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd the people start to show[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nYou could be a sharp backup singer[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nWho smells like coconut[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nOr avant-garde Jersey Jazz trio[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nWho by day smells like Pizza Hut[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]                                                             [ch]C[/ch]\r\nEverything outta that back room sounds like its coming out of an old tube radio[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nEither out by the curb or by the kitchen sink[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd mean to play what Freddy's got[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nMy favorite record cover, or one of em, anyway,[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nIs Jerry Jeff Walker[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab]                               [ch]D[/ch]\r\n\"It's a Good Night for

dancing[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nPeople with funny hats[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nSome in denim, some in leather[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nOr Fort Park Boy-high-low aristocrats(?)[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nYeah, The back room reminds me of that cover[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nIn every way, by and large[/tab]\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nWhen I threw down that shot[/tab]\r\n[tab]                                [ch]G[/ch]\r\nI started thinking about how Freddy's is going to be a parking garage[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]
