A rift in my family
I can’t use the car
Gotta be in by ten o’clock
Who do they think they are?
I’d make exception if you
Want to save my life
Brigette Bardot gotta come and
See me every night
I think the chords are pretty close – if anything there’s too many in the chart. It’s got that old-time New Orleans blues progression…if you try playing it bouncing the root and the fifth in the bass like you would a country song you can get a pretty cool interpretation. I’ve been trying to take the song into a Rory Gallagheresque direction – helluva lot of fun to play. Enjoy!
