Naked by Robbie Doyen
A
A
Ninety miles an hour standing up on the Highway. No one
really caring whether or not
D
A
we die today. Driving through a lawn doing doughnuts in
their yard, man I really hope
that we don't see a cop car.
E
D A
We are young and having fun. Yea we're young and we're dumb
and we're young and
having fun and we are
A E
D
Naked with the top down. Driving all around town. Too high
to ever bring down, we're
A
naked with the top down.
A A
Yea the color of our skin is the color that we're swimming
in. The water's mighty cold
D
from the moment that you enter it. I cannot figure out why
my will is so strong. It's
A
probably because I hit the gravity bong.
E D
A
We are young and having fun. Yea we're young and we're dumb
and we're young and
having fun and we are
A E
D
Naked with the top down. Driving all around town. Too high
to ever bring down. We're
A
naked with the top down.
(break for solo's. Standard 12 bar blues progression
twice.)
A A
D
Drugs are better than people. I said drugs are better than
people. Take a pill take a hit take
A
a puff take a sip yea drugs are better than people
E D
A
When you are young and having fun. Well we're young and
we're dumb and we're
young and full of cum and we are
A E
D
Naked with the top down. Driving all around town. Too high
to ever bring down we are
A
E
naked with the top down Yea Naked with the top down. Driving
all around town. Too
D A
high to ever bring down. We're naked with the top down.
Helmet. by Robbie Doyen
C D
Bm C D
Sometimes I'm a bowling ball and sometimes I'm the pins. It
just depends what kind of
G C D
Bm C
mood I'm in. And sometimes I'm a messenger and sometimes I
receive. It's a formula
D G
that's based on time and need.
C G
C G
And I'm a helmet, I'm a batting cage. I'm a locked on pilot
who's trying to disengage.
C G
C G
Yea I'm twenty-two but I still keep all my toys. I'm so
immature. I'm such a little boy.
C D
C D G
But My fire is burning bright because I have got so much
oxygen in my lungs.
C D Bm
C D
Well I don't believe in gravity and I don't believe in
blood, and I don't believe my life is
G C
D Bm C
big enough. And I don't get much sympathy and I don't get
much sleep, but if there's one
D C
thing that I get it's in too deep.
C
G C G
But I'm a helmet, I'm a batting cage. I'm a locked on pilot
who's trying to disengage.

Yea I'm twenty-two but I still keep all my toys. I'm so

fire is burning bright because I have got so much oxygen in
my lungs.
(Instrumental break)
C D
Bm C
It's hard to sing a love song when you don't love anyone,
and you don't think you can
D G
C D
Bm C
ever love anyone. And it's hard to tell the difference
between someone who's unique, and
D
G
someone who's trying too hard to be a freak.
C
G C G
But I'm a helmet. I'm a batting cage. I'm a locked on pilot
who's trying to disengage.

Small Town Psycho Crazy Girlfriend Blues . by Robbie Doyen
G
Well my girl went away and that is making me glad, but I'm
not getting laid and that is
C G
making me sad. She's always on the hustle and causing some
trouble. She's not very
D C G
strong, but her mouth is a muscle. I've got the small town
psycho crazy girlfriend blues.
She cleaned up my room and she washed all my clothes and she
bought me nice things
C
and she nibbled my toes, but she is always stressin' even
when we're carressin'. She
G
D
C
wrecks all her cars, but she can't learn her lesson. I've
got the small town psycho crazy
G
girlfriend blues.
(Instrumental break . standard blues
progression)
G
Well I knew it was bad, but I wasn't
prepared, and now that knife in her hand is really
C G
makin' me scared. My baby can't resist all
of the burdens she carries. Right after we fight
D C G
she always wants to get married. I've got
the small town psycho crazy girlfriend blues.

Pedal on the Floor . by Robbie Doyen (REPEATING C-G-F RIFF)
C G F C G F
C G F C G F
February summer. Hotter than a mother. Hotter than a lover
sleeping with another. And I
C G F
C G F C G
hear about it everyday. All your problems that won't go
away. Well I don't like the way
F C G
F C G F C
that he treats you, and you're not liking what I say. Living
fast with strangers. Breaking
G F C G F
C G F
into mangers. Running from the Rangers, and getting off on
danger.
C G F
C G F C G
And I got the pedal on the floor. Faster than I've gone
before. Got my elbow hangin' out
F C
G F
of the window. Seatbelt stickin' out of the bottom of the
door.
C F C
F C F C
And I'd like to take a long ride on a passenger airplane or
a bull-headed freight train as
F
long as it goes far away.
C G F C G F
C G F C G F
Running from a lady, cuz I think I'm crazy. And I'm thinking
maybe. And I think I think
C G F C G
too much. That's why I'm gonna go down to the bar where
everyone knows who you
F C G
F C G F
are. But even party world can get kinda boring when it's the
only place you ever are. Yea,
C G F C G F C
G F C G F
hot headed gringo. One bad amigo. With a fragile ego, and
overactive libido.
C G F C G
F C G
And I got the pedal on the floor. Faster than I've gone
before. Got my elbow hangin' out
F C
G F
of the window. Seatbelt stickin' out of the bottom of the
door.
C F
C F C
F
And I'm afraid of commitment because it means you're
getting' older, and I don't want
C F
to get older. I'm afraid of getting older.

And I got the pedal on the floor. Faster than I've gone
before. Got my elbow hangin' out
F C
G F C G
of the window. Seatbelt stickin' out of the bottom of the
door. And I got the pedal on the
F C G
F C G F C
floor. Never been this fast before. Got my elbow hangin' out
of the window. Seatbelt

stickin' out of the bottom of the door.
C F

And I'm afraid of commitment because it means you're
getting' older, and I don't want

Feelin' kinda hollow, but if you lead I'll follow. Wish that
I could lay low, but I'm

Radioactive . by Robbie Doyen

G C G
You gave me a tiny Godzilla and I put it in my pocket. Now
I've got a brand new brother
C G(c.g.c) G C G C
G C(g.c) G
by my side. Turns out I was stupid when I tried to make it
better, cuz you know you're

gonna die when the food you eat is radioactive.
(RIFF) G(c.g.c)
G C G C G(c.g.c)G C
I think I'm gonna take a magic marker and color in the
whiteness in my eyes. I never had
G C G(c.g.c)G
C G C G(c.g.c)
much use for peripheral vision. Tunnel's always suited me
just fine.
D C
G C G C D
Yea and every time I see you I'll stand up straight when I
walk, but the Godzilla in my
C D
C G(c.g.c) G(c.g.c)
pocket is breathing fire on my cock. right now! Right now.
G C G C
G C(g.c) G C G
Well I was standing at the mouth of the railroad tracks with
a half empty bottle of brandy
C G(c.g.c)G C G C
G C(g.c) G C G
in my hand. Trying to decide if I should just set off
walking without ever ever ever
C G
looking back.
(RIFF)
G(c.g.c) G C G C
I think I'm gonna grow out all my fingernails and scratch them
down the chalkboard until
G(c.g.c)G C G C
G(c.g.c)G C G C
I cry. I never had much use for meticulous hearing. Tone
deaf's always suited me just
G(c.g.c)
fine.
D C
G C G C D
Yea and every time I see you I'll stand up straight when I
walk, but the Godzilla in my
C D
C G(c.g.c) G(c.g.c) G C G C
pocket is breathing fire on my cock. right now! Right now.
Right now yea yea yea yea
