"The Acid Song"
Loudon Wainwright
G C G
I had not taken acid for twelve years,
D C G D
but one night last summer I did.
G C G
I was adrift in a bar room
D C G G7
acting like a jerk and a kid.
C G
I knew we were asking for trouble.
C D Dsus D
Trouble was what we would get...... [chord hit]
G C G
Five of us dropped in the girls' room....
D C G
Psychodilicizing sane quintet.
G C G
Well, that bathroom got crowded in no time.
D C G D
I minds were all blown in one flash.
G C G
Everyone in there got ugly.
D C G G7
We exited out of there fast.
C G
Back in the bar we were happy - feeling great - no problem.
C D Dsus D
Back in the bar we were fine..... [chord hit]
G C G
Till Johnny turned into a Nazi,
D C G
and Mary threw up all her wine.
G C G
Well, in no time we all were ejected.
D C G D
Soon we were out on the street.
G C G
The sidewalk began to perspire.
D C G G7
We had glass and dog shit at our feet. We....
C G
went over to Mary's apartment.
C D Dsus D
to listen to the Grateful Dead... [chord hit]
G C G
On the way there we lost Johnny,
D C G
He had opted for Bellevue instead.
[spoken]
Boy, I'm really glad we did this, it feels great, man. Just like the old
days.
I love it. I know my hair's on fire. Like incense, or something. You know,
you
face is melting. It is, it's all the colors of the rainbow. Hey, you wanna
hold
some fruit? C'mon, hold some fruit! It breathes, it really does. Have a
cantaloupe. C'mon. Nah, I dunno where the Donovan tape is.
G C G
Well, I had to get out of that city.
D C G D
Bobby was bringing me down.
G C G
Me and my darling, Suzy.....
D C G G7
said, "So long," drove out of town.
C G
Driving on acid is easy.
C D Dsus D
Driving on acid's a breeze. [chord hit]
G C G
Just keep the car on the highway.
D C G
Don't laugh & don't fart & don't sneeze.
G C G
Well, we got to my house in the country. The country, man...
D C G D
The trees were all throbbing and green.
G C G
Suzy was sure she had cancer.
D C G G7
I was sure I was James Dean. We....
C G
went down to the lake to go swimming. C'mon, let's try that.
C D Dsus D
On the way for a swim....... [chord]
G C G
Suzy said, "Water cures cancer."
D C G
I asked her to please call me, "Jim."
G C G
This acid is usually dangerous.
D C G D
The mild-mannered kid quickly turned me.
G C G
L.S.D. can surely derrange us
D C G G7
unless you possess Thorazine. So....
C G
next time you wanna go out there
C D Dsus D
when you feel like thinning your head.... [chord hit]
G C G
Think twice before dropping acid,
D C G
hold out for mushrooms in- stead.
