Lodi Creedence Clearwater Revival
I just watched a live acoustic version of John Fogerty playing Lodi on YouTube. The
tabs are definitely a little off.
I posted the actual chord version & the re-keyed version for those who like to play it
G.
CCR - LODI
VERSE1:
[C/G]Just about a year ago
I [F]set out on the [C/G]road.
Seekin' my [C/B]fame and [Am]fortune,
[F]Lookin' for a pot of [C/G]gold.
[C/G]Things got [C/B]bad and [Am]things got worse,
I [F]guess you know the [C/G]tune
Oh, Lord! I'm [G]stuck in Lodi a[F]gain.[C/G]
VERSE2:
[C/G]Rode in on the greyhound, I'll be [F]walkin' out if I [C/G]go.
I was just [C/B]passing [Am]through must be [F]seven months or [C/G]more.
[C/G]Ran out of [C/B]time and [Am]money, [F]looks like they took my [C/G]friends.
Oh, Lord! stuc[G]k in Lodi a[F]gain.[C/G]
VERSE3:
[C/G]The man from the magazine, [F]said I was on my [C/G]way.
Somewhere I [C/B]lost co[Am]nnections, [F]ran out of songs to [C/G]play,
[C/G] [C/B] [Am] [F]
I came i[C/G]n to town a one night stand, looks like my plans fell through.
Oh, Lord! I'm [G]stuck in Lodi [F]again.[C/G]
VERSE4:
[C/G]If I only had a dollar for [F]ev'ry song I [C/G]sung.
N'every [C/B]time I've [Am]had to play while [F]people sat there [C/G]drunk.
[C/G]You know I'd [C/B]catch the n[Am]ext train,
[F]Back to where I [C/G]live.
Oh, Lord! I'm [G]stuck in Lodi [F]again.[C/G]
