Intro: A/B E B E | A E |
E | E A | E |
E A B7
E
Madman drummers bummers and Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat
A B7
E
In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat
A B7
E
With a boulder on my shoulder feelin' kinda older I tripped the merry-go-round
A B7
E
With this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing the calliope crashed to the ground
A B7
E
Some all-hot half-shot was headin' for the hot spot snappin' his fingers clappin' his hands
A B7
E
And some fleshpot mascot was tied into a lover's knot with a whatnot in her hand
A
E
And now young Scott with a slingshot finally found a tender spot and throws his lover in
sand
A B7
E
And some bloodshot forget-menot whispers daddy's within earshot save the buckshot turn
the band
A B E
And she was blinded by the light
A B E
Ooh cut loose like a deuce another runner in the night
A B C#m B7
A E A E C#m
Blinded by the light she got down but she never got tight, but she'll make it alright
E A B7
E
Some brimstone baritone anticyclone rolling stone preacher from the east
A B7
E
He says: "Dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in its funny bone, that's where they expect it least"
A B7
E
And some new-mown chaperone was standin' in the corner all alone watchin' the young
dance
A B7
E
And some fresh-sown moonstone was messin' with his frozen zone to remind him of the
of romance
A B E
Yeah he was blinded by the light
A B E
Ooh cut loose like a deuce another runner in the night
A B C#m B7
A E A E C#m
Blinded by the light he got down but she never got tight, but he's gonna make it tonight
B A
E
Some silicone sister with her manager's mister told me I got what it takes
B
E
She said I'll turn you on sonny to something strong if you play that song with the funky break
B A
E
And go-cart Mozart was checkin' out the weather chart to see if it was safe to go outside
B A
E
And little Early-Pearly came in by her curly-wurly and asked me if I needed a ride
A B7
E
Oh, some hazard from Harvard was skunked on beer playin' backyard bombardier
A
B7 E
Yes and Scotland Yard was trying hard, they sent some dude with a calling card, he said,
what you like, but don't do it here
A
E
Well I jumped up, turned around, spit in the air, fell on the ground, asked wich was the
back home
A
E
He said take a right at the light, keep going straight until right, and then boy you're
your own
A B7
E
And now in Zanzibar a shootin' star was ridin' in a side car hummin' a lunar tune
A B7
E
Yes, and the avatar said blow the bar but first remove the cookie jar, we're gonna teach
boys to laugh too soon
A
E
And some kidnapped handicap was complaining that he caught the clap from some mousetrap
bought last night
A B7
E
Well I unsnapped his skull cap and between his ears I saw a gap but he'd figured he'd be
right
A B E
He was just blinded by the light
A B E
Ooh cut loose like a deuce another runner in the night
A B C#m B7
A
Blinded by the light Mama always told me not to look into the sights of the sun
Oh but mama that's where the fun is
I was blinded
E A B B7
