Jimmy Buffett - Twelve Volt Man guitar chord

Twelve Volt Man

By Jimmy Buffett

F9

I never got a grip on penmanship

Bb

Could never make the small L's flow

F9

Seldom found the trick to arith-a-metic

Bbmaj7

Three plus two be mo' pas

Bbmaj7 C

But ask for some palm trees

Bbmaj7 C

Or tales from the South Seas

Bbmaj7 C F

And I just might turn your head

I never had the clout to knock one out

But hitting was the name of my game

Standing on third as the coaches conferred

Close to my first claim to fame

Just give me the steal sign

And I'll make home plate mine

And I just might turn some heads

Bb7 F

Sometimes I may get a little drastic

Bb7 F

Sometimes I just let my feelin's show

Bb7 F

Sometimes I may be a bit sarcastic

G C

Most times that's the way the story goes

instrumental

Now I now this Joe down in Mexico

He went there to work on his tan

For years he's been plugged into blenders and songs

They call him the Twelve Volt Man

He don't need no charge card

Just give him a Die Hard

And he'll makes sparks fly 'round your head

Oh just ask for some palm trees

Or tales from the South Seas

And I'll make sparks fly 'round your head

'Round your head

In your head (7 times)

In your head...

Timothy B. Schmit did the background vocals on this song.

If you can get him to do the background vocals for you it

REALLY helps make the song sound great!
