Misc Unsigned Bands – Clay Nightingale - Eric Mcmullen (Guitar)

C                                     G     C
In my dreams you dont have plans for Mardi Gras

C                                    G C   
Ill pick you up on my way through Arkansas

C                                 G     C  
Man you wont believe who I met in Memphis

C                                              
Its been a long time since youve seen her

             G            C
I think you might need a hint

F
She could turn every head when she entered the room

G
A woman so happy to make you look a fool

C                                G      C    
But so sad that she painted her mailbox blue

C                              G        C 
She took me to her apartment below the street

C                                  G         C
Im sure I looked nervous as she poured me a drink

C                            G      C 
And Eric, she hardly said a word to me

C                                         G          C          
She just asked if Id stay and help her decorate the tree

F 
So I walked out on that tight rope slow as a snail

G
At one point I slipped and almost all her ornaments fell

C                                G    C  
But I managed to hang the clay nightingale.
