Blow Up Your T.V.
J. Prine  (klr)
She was a  Glevel headed dancer on the  Croad to alchohol
And  DI was just a soldier on my way to Montreal  G  
Well, she pressed her chest against me, about the  Ctime the juke
box broke
She  Dgive me a peck on the back of the neck and these are the
words she  Gspoke
 GBlow up your tv, throw away your paper
Go to the  Dcountry and build you a  Ghome
Plant a little garden, eat a lotta peaches
Try and find  DJesus, on your  Gown
I  Gsat there at the table and I  Cacted real niave
Cause I  Dknew that topless lady, she had something up her sleve
[G]
She danced around the room awhile and she  Cdid the hoochy cooch
And  Dsing a song all night long, telling me what to  Gdo
 GBlow up your tv, throw away your paper
Go to the  Dcountry and build you a  Ghome
Plant a little garden, eat a lotta peaches
Try and find  DJesus, on your  Gown
But  GI was young and a  Cbout to leave that place
 DJust as I was going, she looked me in the face  G  
I said "You must know the answer", she said  C"no, but I'll give it
 Atry."
And  Dto this day, we've been living our way, here is the reason
[G] why
We blew up the  Gtv, threw away the paper
Went to the  Dcountry, built us a  Ghome
Had a lotta children, fed them on peaches
They all found  DJesus, on their  Gown  C- G  
It is an ejoyable one.

G C

She was a level headed dancer on the road to alchohol

And I was just a soldier on my way to Montreal

Well, she pressed her chest against me, about the time the juke

box broke

She give me a peck on the back of the neck and these are the

words she spoke

Blow up your tv, throw away your paper

D G

Go to the country and build you a home

Plant a little garden, eat a lotta peaches

D G

Try and find Jesus, on your own

G C

I sat there at the table and I acted real niave

Cause I knew that topless lady, she had something up her sleve

[]

She danced around the room awhile and she did the hoochy cooch

D G

And sing a song all night long, telling me what to do

Blow up your tv, throw away your paper

Go to the country and build you a home

Plant a little garden, eat a lotta peaches

D G

Try and find Jesus, on your own

G C

But I was young and a bout to leave that place

D G

Just as I was going, she looked me in the face

I said "You must know the answer", she said "no, but I'll give it

try."

And to this day, we've been living our way, here is the reason

[] why

We blew up the tv, threw away the paper

D G

Went to the country, built us a home

Had a lotta children, fed them on peaches

D G C G

They all found Jesus, on their own -

It is an ejoyable one.
