It was a
[Am7] [E7-9]
October morning
[Am7] [E7+5]
Near the carousel
[Am7] [E7-9]
I met a light young beauty
[Am7] [E7+5]
And we hooked up for a spell
[Am7] [E7-9]
We walked up by the green lawn
[Am7] [E7+5]
And my heart began to sing
[Am7]
Mad man on a victory lap
[Fm6]
Hold onto that slinky thing
[C9]
Hold onto that slinky thing
[Am7] [E7-9]
Went to a party
[Am7] [E7+5]
Every body stood around
[Am7] [E7-9]
Thinkin’ hey what she doing
[Am7] [E7+5]
With a burned out hippie clown
[Am7] [E7-9]
Young dudes were grinnin’
[Am7] [E7+5]
I can’t say it didn’t stink
[Am7]
Some punk says pops you better
[Fm6]
Hold onto that slinky thing
[C9]
Hold onto that slinky thing
[Em7]
More light, more light, more light, more light
[G/C] [Cm6]
More light, more light, more li - ight
[Bbm]
More light, more light, more light, more light,
[C9] [E7] [E7+5-9]
More light, more li ight,
[Am7] [E7-9]
To day we were strolling
[Am7] [E7+5]
By the reptile cage
[Am7] [E7-9]
I thinkin’ that she needs some body
[Am7] [E7+5]
Who’s closer to her own age
[Am7] [E7-9]
Try not to worry
[Am7] [E7+5]
What tomorrow may bring
[Am7]
I’m just gonna do my best to
[Fm6]
Hold onto that slinky thing
