“Canceled Check”
Beck
B D A E A B
I hate to do this, but you’re a pain in the neck.
I thought you knew this; you handed me a canceled check.
You’re so helpless; your girlfriends think you’re a saint.
B D A E A D
I’ll give you a quarter; I’ll keep my judgments to myself…
D F#
And I get caught up in the moonlight,
F# B B7
Reaching out for a rotten egg — I don’t wanna beg –
B7 G F# B
It’s crystal clear your time is nearly gone.
Count your blessings, and do the things that you should.
Oh, the has-beens that never had it so good…
Stormy weather, the kids are making a racket
In the wilderness, the wild lives are so mild…
And I get caught up in the moonlight,
Reaching out for a rotten egg — I don’t wanna beg –
It’s crystal clear your time is nearly gone.
SOLO (over verse chords)
And I get caught up in the moonlight,
Reaching out for a rotten egg — I don’t wanna beg –
It’s crystal clear your time is nearly gone.
