So Long Old Bean Chords & Tabs
Im not too sure about the part at the very end of
the song, but its pretty close I think. And I think
there's probaby a more accurate way to play the Em,
but try it out.

Well these days I'm spread so thin

Every time you get high

Well so long old bean

I couldn't tell us apart
G D
oh and I know neither could you

When you float downstream

on a moonbeam
Em7* G D G (slide e-string 3rd - 5th fret)
Soooo long old bean
Em7* G D G
Soooo long old bean
Here comes the Mapinguari singing awww
when's there gonna be an end to wondering
when all of our troubles are gonna end 'cause
we've had our fill of finding our empty pockets
emptier still and there probably won't be
an end to that my friends
Now that my tralala's are dating
little sips of the Hollywood bowl
they mute up my mind
how kind of them to mellow mellow mellow my soul
well they're the gambling kind
as smooth as a tuba' ass on the dole
money never beats soul
how noble
Don't forget me
when you float downstream
on a moonbeam
So long old bean
So long old bean
Em7* Bm Am C Am
I'm the little fire fly
D C G
landing on you
