Old Folks Boogie Chords

(ver. 1)
Little Feat
[Intro]

B7 sliding up to C7. They play the B7 as x212xx sliding up to C7 as x323xx.


[Verse]

C7           [E] F7
Off our rockers, actin' crazy
             C7
And with the right medication we won't be lazy
[E] F7              F#dim 
    Old folks boogie, down on the farm
C7
Wheelchairs, they was locked arm in arm
G7                         F7       G7
Paired off pacemakers with matchin' alarms
         C7                       G7
Gives us just one more chance to spin one more yarn

        C7           [E] F7
And you know that you're over the hill
            C7
When your mind makes a promise that your body can't fill
[E] F7                F#dim
Old folks boogie, and boogie we will
 G7
'Cause to us the thought's as good as a thrill

C7           [E] F7
Back at the home, no time is your own,
C7
Facillities there, well they're all out on loan
[E] F7                       F#dim 
The bank forclose, and your bankruptcy shows
         C7
And your credit creeps to an all-time low
       G7                 F7       G7
So you know, that you're over the hill
          C7                             G7
When your mind makes a promise that your body can't fill


[Instrumental break]

C7   |  %   |  F7  |  %  |
C7   |  %   |  %   |  %  |  [x3]

C7   |  %   |  F7  |  G7 |


[Verse]

        C7
Try and get a rise from an atrophied muscle,
        F                         F#dim
And the nerves in your thigh just quivers and fizzles
       G7                F7       G7
So you know, that you're over the hill
C7                                       G7
When your mind makes a promise that your body can't fill
