Six String Music
>From the Jimmy Buffett album _Fruitcakes_
By: Jimmy Buffett, G.E. Smith
1994
(intro: D chords)
Turn off the T.V.
Turn off the crap
Kick off your high heels
Climb up in my lap
Chorus:
And I'll play music
A song from me to you
Simple six string music
A ballad or the blues
No interruptions
>From the telephone
Don't need call waitin'
Just you and me alone
Chorus:
And my six string music (six string music)
A song from me to you
Simple six string music (six string music)
A ballad or the blues
Oh I remember that night in Africa
My daughter and my little guitar
Straddling the equator
The king of Zanzibar
Those shy black hidden faces
They didn't know me from Adam's cat
But the words and the singin'
And the people in a ring
And the whole night went like that
(instrumental: D chords)
Now some folks like icing
Some folks like cake
Some swim in the ocean
Some paddle in a lake
Well you can get into Beethoven
Or you can groove on Jimmy Reed
But keep it simple stupid
All we really need is
Chorus:
Six string music (six string music)
A song from me to you
Simple six string music (six string music)
A ballad or the blues
Six string music (six string music)
Ain't no symphony
It's just six string music (six string music)
So elementary
