Flashback Blues John Prine
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning: Standard
Intro:
[C] [G] [C] [F]
[C] [G] [C]
While [C]window shopping [G]through the past
I [C]ran across a [F]looking glass
[C]Reflecting moments [G]remaining in a burned out [C]light
[C]Tragic magic [G]prayers of passion
[C]Stay the same through [F]changing fashions
They [C]freeze my mind like [G]water on a winterâ??[C]s night
Chorus:
[D]Spent most of my youth
Out [G]hobo cruising
[D]And all I got for proof
Is [G]rocks in my pockets and dirt in my shoes
So [C]goodbye non[G]believer
[C]Donâ??t you know that [F]I hate to leave here
[C]So long babe, [G]I got the flashback [C]blues.
(Repeat Intro)
[C]Photographs [G]show the laughs
[C]Recorded in bet[F]ween the bad times
[C]Happy sailors [G]dancing on a sinking [C]ship
[C]Cloudy skies and [G]dead fruit flies
[C]Waving goodbye with [F]tears in my eyes
Well [C]sure I made it but ya [G]know it was as hell of a [C]trip.
(Repeat Chorus)
And [C]ten times what it [G]grieves you
[C]Thatâ??s how much more [F]I hate to leave you now
[C]So long babe, [G]I got the flashback [C]blues.
(Repeat intro)
(Repeat chorus)
So [C]goodbye non[G]believer
Donâ??t yo[C]u know that [F]I hate to leave here
[C]So long babe, [G]I got the flashback [C]blues.
