  The Free Electric Band  - Albert Hammond

  ----------------------------------------

  

  

      C                          G

  My father is a doctor, he's a familiy man

      C                           G

  My mother works for charity whenever she can

           C                              G

  They're both good clean Americans who abide by the law

        C                                  G

  They both stick up for liberty and they both support the war.

      C7            F                  G                C

  My happiness was paid for when they laid their money down

       C7           F              G              C

  For summers in a summercamp and winters in the town

      G             F          C                 G

  My future in the system was talked about and planned

         C              F              G            C

  But I gave it up for music and the Free Electric Band.

  

  

  I went to school in handwashed shirts with neatly oiled hair

  And the school was big and newly built and filled with light and air

  And the teacher taught us values that we had to learn to keep

  And they clipped the ear of many idle kid who went to sleep.

  Till my father organised for me a college in the east

  But I went to California for the sunshine and the beach

  My parents and my lecturers could never understand

  Why I gave it up for music and the Free electric band.

  

  

  Well they used to sit and speculated upon their son's career

  A lawyer or a docter or a civil engineer

  Just give me bread and water, put a guitar in my hand

  'Cos all I need is music and the Free Electric Band.

  

  

  My father sent me money and I spent it pretty fast

  On a girl I met in Berkley in a social science class

  Yes and we learned about her body but her mind we did not know

  Until deep routed attitudes and morals began to show

  She wanted to get married even though she never said

  And I knew her well enough by now to see inside her head

  She'd settle for suburbia and a little patch of land

  So I gave her up for music and the Free Electric Band.

  

  

  Oooh the Free Electric Band.
