It was a October morning
Near the carousel
I met a light young beauty
And we hooked up for a spell
We walked up by the green lawn
And my heart began to sing
Mad man on a victory lap
Hold [Fm6]onto that slinky thing
Hold [C9]onto that slinky thing
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
| Am7 E7-9 Am7| Am7 E7+5 |
Went to a party
Everybody stood around
Thinkin? hey what she doing
With a burned out hippie clown
Young dudes were grinnin?
I can?t say it didn?t stink
Some punk says pops you better
Hold o[Fm6]nto that slinky thing
Hold [C9]onto that slinky thing
[Em7] More light, more light, more light, more light
More light, more light, more [Cdim]li - ight
[Bbm] More light, more light, more light, more light,
More light, more [C9]li ight, [E7][E7-9+5]

Today we were strolling
By the reptile cage
I thinkin? that she needs somebody
Who?s closer to her own age
Try not to worry
What tomorrow may bring
I?m just gonna do my best to
Hold [Fm6]onto that slinky thing
Hold [C9]onto that slinky thing
