The Bobby McGee’s – Go, Tiger, Go (We Never Sleep)

June 30, 2009

The best ukulele bit of this song is impossible to hear on the album version, but Jimmy fills us on it in this video. So here’s the tab:

gotigergo

If you can’t handle the fancy stuff, you can play C and G in the chorus.

You can find this one on L’Appropriation Bourgoisie de la Bobby McGee’s (and you get a free sweetie when you buy it).

EXPECTING TO FIND CHORDS/TABS? Try clicking where it says the name of the song in red under the video.

    I really like the song, but I can’t figure out what he’s saying in the lyrics.

    Kevin:

    Do you mind* back when we were cool as Tigers?

    Do you mind back when we were cool as tigers?
    The greatest lovers and the greatest dancers
    We’d bop….
    We were the best dressed kids in the place
    We’d dance like we were from outer space
    & we’d bop…

    Go Tiger…go tiger…. go.
    Don’t ever let the dreams go/the bruises show
    You’re still the coolest cat that I know
    So Go Tiger Go Tiger Go!

    We were kings and queens of the indie dance floor
    When we danced, they’d take note
    & we’d bop.
    We’d dance all night on a pint of cider
    I was Elvis…you were Nancy Sinatra
    & we’d bop

    We’d never leave home without our ukuleles
    My crepe sole shoes & your pretty dresses.
    & we’d bop
    God help the dance floor that played our song
    anything by The Smiths, Pulp, The Rammones
    & We’d bop

    Go Tiger Go!

Got something to say?
