Intro dialogue: I got a call from my old writing partner.. Jeff... and you know.. we were kinda drinkin talkin to each other on the phone and he goes “Ya know I betcha that I can name a subject that you can’t write a song about.” I said “Alright fucker, let's hear it, what da ya got?” And he goes “ How ‘bout, uh, a homeless guy.” And I said “easy”. And he said “who is French…” LAUGHTER Let’s give it a shot.. If this doesn’t go over I owe him a lot of money.

FYI: I enjoyed this song so much that I wanted to figure it out and play it for my friends an fam. This is my first-ever post online of a tab/chord. I use this site often especially for Lynch chords so I felt that it would be right to give back.
