Spanish Pipedream Chords by John Prine

[Start]

[Verse]
          G                 
She was a levelheaded dancer
               C      
On the road to alcohol
          D7                          G       
And I was just a soldier on my way to Montreal
                     G               
Well she pressed her chest against me
                   C             
About the time the juke box broke
                   D7  
Yeah she give me a peck
       D7              
On the back of the neck
                  G              
And these are the words she spoke


[Chorus]
             G 
Blow up your TV
                G    
Throw away your paper
          D7     
Go to the country
            G   
Build you a home
               G     
Plant a little garden
             G      
Eat a lot of peaches
             D7            G   D7
Try an' find Jesus on your own ■ 


[Verse]
G                              
■ Well I sat there at the table
      C               
And I acted real naive
      D         D7          
For I knew that topless lady
                     G     
Had something up her sleeve
         G                         
Well she danced around the bar room
        C                 
And she did the hoochiecoo
         D                           
Yeah she sang her song all night long
D7                 G 
Tellin' me what to do


[Chorus]
     G         
Blow up your TV
      G              
Throw away your paper
D7               
Go to the country
G               
Build you a home
        G            
Plant a little garden
      G             
Eat a lot of peaches
        D7            G        D7
Try an' find Jesus on your own ■ 


[Verse]
G                            
■ Well I was young and hungry
C                            
And about to leave that place
D         D7              
When just as I was leavin'
                      G       
Well she looked me in the face
  G                            
I said You must know the answer
    C                             
She said No but I'll give it a try
D                                             
And to this very day we've been livin' our way
            G         
Here is the reason why
        G        
We blew up our TV


[Chorus]
      G             
Threw away our paper
D7                 
Went to the country
G              
Built us a home
      G              
Had a lot of children
        G         
Fed 'em on peaches
         D              G        
They all found Jesus on their own
