Please excuse errors in the lyrics. I have this on second-generation
cassette, so unfortunately I have to guess what is being sung.
AFTERNOONS AND COFFEESPOONS
(capo on third fret)
Intro: D G D G Asus4 A
DWhat is it that Amakes me just a Dlittle bit Gqueasy G A
DThere's a breeze that Amakes my breathing Dnot so Geasy G A
FI've had my Bblungs checked out with CX-rays
F Bb C Dm Bbsus2**
I've smelled the hospital hallways
(**Sorry. Not really sure if this is what you call this chord. Basically
play a Bb, but play the C note on the second string, not the D note.)
SHORT CHORUS:
DSomeday GI'll have D a disappearing Ahairline
DSomeday GI'll wear D pajamas in the Adaytime G A
DTimes when the Aday seems like a Dplay by GSartre G A
DWhen it seems a Abook burnings in Dperfect Gorder G A
FI gave the Bbdoctor my deCscription
FI've tried to Bbstick to my preCscription Dm Bbsus2
LONG CHORUS:
DSomeday GI'll have D a disappearing Ahairline
DSomeday GI'll wear D pajamas in the Adaytime
GOh, oh, Doh, oh (or something to that effect)
AAfterDnoons will be Gmeasured out
BmMeasured out and Gmeasured with
ACoffeeDspoons and T.S. GEliot G A
(The remaining verse and chorus repeat the same chord progression)
Maybe if I could do a play-by-playback
I could change the test results that I would get back
I've watched a summer evening pass by
I've heard the rattle in my bronchi
REPEAT LONG CHORUS
Hope you can follow this.
