One of their greatest songs of all. Send any corrections my way.
Intro (x4):
Drove downtown in the rain Nine thirty on a tuesday
night Just to check out the late night Record shop
Chorus:
Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did Well I'm
Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson di-
Preverse Chords (x2):
Verse Chords:
So I'm lying here just staring at the ceiling tiles,
And I'm thinking about, oh what to think about.
Just listening and relistening to Smiley Smile
And I'm wondering if this is some kind of creative drought because
Chorus:
I'm lyin' in bed just like Brian Wilson did Well I'm
D (start preverse)
I'm lyin' in bed just like Brian Wilson di-
First Bridge:
And if you want to find me I'll be out in the sandbox
Wondering where all the hell all the love has gone
Playing my guitar and building castles in the sun,
And singing Fun Fun Fun
Preverse
Second Bridge:
I had a dream That I was Three Hundred Pounds
And though I was very heavy I flotted til I couldnt see the ground
Alternate between Am7 and E7 until next chorus
Preverse (only once, don't repeat the four chords)
At end of verse, instead of Am7 break into Preverse, picking it then strumming it.
