Mark Erelli - Basement days

^DTimmy play^Aed bass and ^Ghis brother had a Me^Dxican Strat ^DI was o^An drums and couldn^G't find the one but I only sang a ^Dlittle flat ^GFake wood paneling, l^Ainoleum floor ^F#mPillow stuffed under th^Be upstairs door ^EmTrying to learn a fe^Cw chords and start^A a band

^GTake me back to those^A basement days ^D"Stairway ^C#To Heaven" ^Bmand "Purple Haze" ^G"Pinball Wizard" and^A "Born To Run" ^D"I Can't Get ^GNo Satisfaction" ^GWe were lost in the music ^Adown in that room ^DIt might as well have^C# been the ^Bmdark side of the moon ^GYou can burn out or^A fade away ^EmBut you can't go^A back to ^Gthose basement days

^DWe learned enoug^Ah songs and^G we thought that it sou^Dnded alright ^DSo we rented out a^A local ^Gchurch basement on a S^Daturday night ^GAll our friends were there we were^A living the dream ^F#m'Til the fire m^Barshal arrived on sceneA And pulled the plug 'cause we set off the alarm with our dry ice machine

^GTake me back to thos^Ae basement days ^D"Stairway ^C#To Heaven" a^Bmnd "Purple Haze" ^G"Whipping Post" and ^A"Aqualung" ^D"I Can't Ge^Gt No Satisfaction" ^GWe were lost in the musi^Ac down in that room ^DIt might as well ^C#have been th^Bme dark side of the moon ^GYou can burn out^A or fade away ^EmBut you can't g^Ao back to t^Ghose basement days

^GGive me one more shot at 1^D6 years old ^GBack when I still believed that rock n^D' roll ^ACould save my soul

^DNow Timmy's i^An computers and^G his brother is a law^Dyer I hear ^DWho'd ha^Ave guessed I'd be ^Gthe one still crazy after all t^Dhese years ^GBut it only comes in flashes ev^Aery now and again ^F#mI get a little taste of how i^Bt was back then ^EmAnd it keeps me goin^Cg every time I feel l^Aike packing it in

^GTake me back to thos^Ae basement days ^D"Stairway ^C#To Heaven" a^Bmnd "Purple Haze" ^G"Sugar Magnolia" "He^Are Comes the Sun" ^DI still kno^Gw every word to "Comfortably Numb" ^GWe were lost in the musi^Ac down in that room ^DIt might as well ^C#have been th^Bme dark side of the moon ^GYou can burn out^A or fade away ^EmBut you can't g^Ao back to t^Ghose basement days
