Red Hot Chili Peppers - The Drummer

[Intro]
Am Dm C E
Am F G Am
Dm Am C G
F C Dm Am

[Verse 1]
Am Dm C E
Stay awake
Am F G Am
Fall asleep
Dm Am
Take a look at what you think
C G
And what you really need to keep
F C Dm Am
My atoms are indivisible

[Verse 2]
Am Dm C E
Shut it up
Am F G Am
Run it down
Dm Am
Live a life that’s underground
C G
A heated love that’s not allowed
F E
A Dum Dum Club is inadmissible

[Chorus]
D E
Let’s make a wish as we enter the lift
A E/G# F#m
‘Cause the system’s a relative bore
D E
The drummer is leaning without any meaning
A E/G# F#m
Outside of the Club Troubadour
D E
I don’t know you and I don’t know what’s true anymore

[Instrumental]
Am Dm C E
Am F G Am
Dm Am C G
F E

[Verse]
Am Dm C E
Walk it back
Am F G Am
Get the knack
Dm Am C G
Information to unpack a guitar in a gunny sack
F E
My best move is in the criminal

[Chorus]
D E
Let’s make a wish as we enter the lift
A E/G# F#m
‘Cause the system’s a relative bore
D E
The drummer is leaning without any meaning
A E/G# F#m
Outside of the Club Troubadour
D E
I don’t know you and I don’t know what’s true anymore

[Bridge]
Fm Cm G G#
Let’s move like the Chapatula do
D# F
I’d be down to wallow in New Orleans
Fm Cm G G#
See-through sunrise on the Waterloo
D# F
Slits are rather fancy when they’re forming
G# A#
I do

[Instrumental]
Am Dm C E
Am F G Am
Dm Am C G
F E

[Verse]
Am Dm C E
Better days
Am F G Am
On the way
Dm Am C G
Flowing like a manta ray the Dodgers made a double play
F E
My dance moves are sub subliminal

[Chorus]
D E
Let’s make a wish as we enter the lift
A E/G# F#m
‘Cause the system’s a relative bore
D E
The drummer is leaning without any meaning
A E/G# F#m
Outside of the Club Troubadour
D E A A/G#
I don’t know you and I don’t know what’s true anymore, oh

[Outro]
F#m C#m
Listen to my one request
Dm A
I don’t know you and I don’t know what’s true anymore
