Original Artist - No Name, No Money, No Fame guitar chord

Capo 1

All notes are relative to capo

G#, Fdim, Bbm, Eb

G#, Fdim, Bbm, Eb

G# Fdim

Way back somewhere in the Florida Everglades

Bbm Eb

Where the Alligators Like to sleep in the shade

G# Fdim

It's so dang hot and people wanna sleep

Bbm Eb

Countin' the stars or the numbers on the sheep

They got basses, trumpets, a slide trombone

They got a little man playin' the alto saxophone

They play for fun and not for the money

After all it's not for the money, honey

They make the oldies come alive, then you're up on your feet

Then before you know it you're dancin' in the street

To that beat in your head you can't get out

It's so dang catchy, you wanna twist and shout

(chorus)

C7 Fm

They're a band with no name, no money, no fame

Bb7 Eb

But nobody minds, they get you up and dancin' just the same

When you're stuck in your tightwad jobs

You thought you'd feel better after a few more sobs

But cryin' won't help you've got to come on down

Next to the Alligator alley in town

(chorus)

Now they went down to the Louisiana Bayous

To try their luck down in Baton Rouge

The days were hot, not a single breeze

But they always say they "Aim To Please"

They tried it with the records with not much luck

Because the coporate clones didn't like it too much

They say the people don't like the oldies now

And they came back with "Then why do we draw a crowd"

(chorus)

They crashed on the bus back home

And the only thing that made it was the saxophone

And we don't know where they are right now

But I can gaurantee their still drawin a crowd
