Аккорды Tom Paxton - Georgie On The Freeways

[Verse 1]
C                                   F             C
The summer sun was beating down, no pity would it show.
C                                        G
George Chesters office air conditioner would no longer go.
C                                        F           C
As pools of sweat rolled off his brow he had one reverie.
C                                            G              C
He saw himself with his wife and kids in his cottage by the sea.

[Verse 2]
C                                            F                 C
He paid for his car at the parking lot which gave the poor man chills.
C                                     G
 The attendant laughed and walked away thumbing a roll of bills. 
C                                                 F                   C
He started the engine with trembling hands at the end of a long, hard day.
C                                           G                C
 And placing himself in the hands of God he drove to the long freeway.

[Verse 3]
C                                                 F                     C
The traffic stretched far as the eye could see as bumper to bumper they sped. 
C                                        G
They drove at supernatural speed, which filled his heart with dread.
C                                                F                    C
 Sometimes they stopped for an hour or more and a thousand horns would blow. 
C                                                     G                     C
George Chester's eyes rolled back in his head and his poor brain started to go.

[Verse 4]
C                                           F              C
He came at last to the turnpike gate and he laid his money down. 
C                                          G
He took the first turn to the right and he followed the curve around.
C                                       F              C
 He took each bend of the cloverleaf, he followed every sign.
C                                              G                 C
 And when he came back to the same tollgate, he gave them another dime.

[Verse 5]
C                                              F                     C
His hands were tight on the steering wheel, his lips and throat were dry.   
C                                      G
 He swore by all that he held dear he'd make it through or die. 
C                                       F                C
He took the first turn to the right the cloverleaf to go through.
C                                         G                C
 He was quite sure of his success 'til the tollgate hove in view.

[Verse 6]
C                                              F             C
And now they say when the Moon is full and the cloverleaf is still,
C                                   G                C 
The sound of an engine can be heard labouring up the hill.
C                                       F                  C
 A dime drops in the toll machine in the cool of a summer's night, 
C                                     G                 C
And eternally that poor car takes the first turn to the right.
