lyrics

Barbara’s Place

G C
I was looking at the movie section just the other day,
D G
two slashers and a sequel four and the spy that got away.
So on my satellite TV I surfed 500 waves,
but the infomercials told me how I should change my ways.
I was bound for culture so I read a magazine,
diet pills and famous drunks and naked-people jeans.
I need to lean on friends when this world’s too much to face.
Let’s gather up our instruments and go to Barbara’s Place.

chorus
G C
Let’s all go to Barbara’s Place the evening still is young.
D C G
The coffeehouse has closed but there’s songs to be sung.
G C
Like a wood fire in the winter when the north wind chills your bones
D G
that autoharp and fiddle will bring the angels home.

vamp
G C
There’s a song to be sung.
D G
There’s a song to be sung.
C G
There’s a song to be sung.
D G
At Barbara’s Place the night is young.


When you lose that third verse to your old favorite song,
she’s got it in a book somewhere so we can sing along.
She’d rather hear our squawking then any radio
cause when we share what’s in our hearts the tears and laughter flow.
When you’re tired of picking you can ramble through her rooms.
And if your demons follow you she’s there beside you soon.
She’ll take you underneath her wing like feathers from on high.
She’ll talk away your bluest blues until you finally sigh.

chorus
vamp (3 times)
