Buoys

Buoys - Timothy guitar tab

"Timothy"

(Rupert Holmes)

Intro:

Am G/B D [2x]

/ / / / / / / /

Verse 1:

Am G/B D

Trapped in a mine that had caved in

Fmaj7 [x33210] G6 [x55430]

And everyone knows the only ones left

Dm7 [x57565] G D

Were Joe and me and Tim

When they broke through to pull us free

The only ones left to tell the tale

Were Joe and me

Chorus 1:

C Bm7 Fmaj7 Am

Timothy, Timothy, where on earth did you go?

C Bm7 Fmaj7 Am G/B D

Timothy, Timothy, God why don't I know?

Verse 2:

Hungry as hell no food to eat

And Joe said that he would sell his soul

For just a piece of meat

Water enough to drink for two

And Joe said to me, "I'll have a swig

And then there's some for you."

Chorus 2:

Timothy, Timothy, Joe was looking at you

Timothy, Timothy, God what did we do?

Verse 3:

I must have blacked out just around then

'Cause the very next thing that I could see

Was the light of the day again

My stomach was full as it could be

And nobody ever got around

To finding Timothy

[repeat chorus 1]

Coda:

Am G/B D

Timothy... [repeat to fade]
