At The Hop


Artist: Devendra Banhart Song: At The Hop Tuning: Standard (Transcribed by FrostG) Note: All chords standard except F which I think sounds best played as: X 3 3 2 1 1 (ie standard bar chord without the root note) Note also that the chords for each verse and each refrain are the same So I'll only write them out once!!! _______ (Intro): C F C F.... (And between verses) C F Put me in your suitcase Am F Let me help you pack C F 'Cause you're never coming back C F No you're never coming back Cook me in your breakfast And put me on your plate Cause you know I'll taste great Yeah you know I taste great (refrain) Am G At the hop its greaseball heaven F With candy pants G And archie too Put me in your dry dream Oh put me in your wet If you haven't yet No if you haven't yet Light me with your candle And watch that flames grow high You know it doesn't hurt to try It doesn't hurt to try (Refrain) Well I won't stop all of my-y pretending That you'll come home You'll be comin' home some day soon Put me in your blue skies Oh put me in your grey There's gotta be some way There's gotta be some way Put me in your tounge tied Make it hard to say That you ain't gonna stay That you ain't gonna stay Wrap me in your marrow And stuff me in your bones And sing a mending moan A song to bring you home
