I Love Creedence Tab

by Casiotone For The Painfully Alone


             x2


I'm Creedence Clearwater Wright

best friend of Elodie Eye

we've been tight since Percy Elementary
			
class of 1985
			
we moved together out to Philly after college

took a two bedroom at South & 9th

I sold my violin so we could have it easy
			
El got her grandmother's money when she died



we laughed like we were queens

& split our ballgowns at the seams

& every single time I'd dream

it was only El & me

but then she slipped away from me

she met a boy from New Jersey

& they fell fast in love of course

I swear it felt like a divorce







this September I'll be 26 years old

& El's the only one besides my dad

who's ever said I love you Creedence


   


took got a job downtown

it's an hour on the bus each way

typing letters for a lawyer in a bad toupee
				                            
it's dumb I know but it pays okay


& did I mention I moved out

I got my own place off of South

& I've been living hand to mouth

for going on a year by now

& yes I still see El around

it's different but I can't say how

she cut her hair it's back to brown

she's living with her boyfriend now


& since September I've been 26 years old

she's still the only one besides my dad


who's ever said I love you Creedence
