E
Here’s a little story bout my band for peace

A
Hit me like a rocket around the time of Y2K

B                           C          B
A party with a bottle and a bunch of pickin friends

E
Before my bites in Apple city came to end

A                                 B
So here I am, in the here and now

E
On this jersey boardwalk as I take a bow—

        B               C       B         E
To tell the story of my weekday Boardwalk Blues

E
All week long I jive the 9 to 5

A                          D     A
Waiting for the weekend to come alive

E
Cause driving deliveries doing office walk

A                          D          A
Whipping up customers with pitch slam talks

B                        C             B
Orders and accounts just makes my brain fried,

E
I need me some sun & sand & peace in my stride

E
Favors, errands & patching busted pipes

A                             C      B
Dancing in the gauntlet of political strife

                 E
And the one thing that keeps humming in my mind

                 A                 D         A
I got the Boardwalk Blues cause it helps me unwind

  E
Oh Boardwalk Blues spinning in my head,

A                       D    A            E
Oh Boardwalk Blues keep me alive & not dead

        B               C       B         E
To tell the story of my weekday Boardwalk Blues

E
See I jumped from the city to the other side

A                      D          A
While jamming away and sitting by the tide,

E
Have fam and gotta eat and got bills for my pad,

A                           D         A
And to buy my wine I had to be a good lad-

B                          C            B
So now the desktop jams to black screen dread,

E
And the aches in my back and burning in my head,

E
I just gotta think of waves and sand in my toes

A                      C             B
Oh Boardwalk Blues I’m clocked in my woes –

                 E
Just let me hear the ocean crashing down

       A                        D            A
On fair weather Sundays, here I am with that sound…..

  E
Oh Boardwalk Blues spinning in my head,

A                       D    A            E
Oh Boardwalk Blues keep me alive & not dead

Em
Got the Boardwalk blues Monday to Friday

Em
Got the Boardwalk blues just to charge me through Sunday

A5
Got the Boardwalk blues dreaming sand in my toes

Em                                            E
Cause the ocean is waiting to wash away my woes--

E
So my band was made to sing about peace

A                              D           A
But them bills kept coming and time won’t cease,

E
Even Uncle Sam comes for his cake piece

         A                   D          A
And damn if I didn’t need to sign a new lease

               B                   C             B
So I keep playing the game cause I can’t seem to quit,

       E
My guitar or my wine or my silly song bits!

                  E
Just gotta think of waves and sand in my toes

     A                 C             B
Oh Boardwalk Blues I’m clocked in my woes –

                     E
Just let me hear the ocean crashing down

       A                        D            A
On fair weather Sundays, here I am with that sound…..

  E
Oh Boardwalk Blues spinning in my head,

A                       D    A            E
Oh Boardwalk Blues keep me alive & not dead
