  19
  20 <p>Capo 2nd fret (sounding key A major)</p>
  21
  22 <p>The sung chord at &ldquo;yeah&rdquo; is a mix of Em, G and C...<br />
  23 Robbie's solos are probably played without a capo. I've tabbed the

  84 Now, whenever I get up
  85 And can't find what I need,
  86 I just make it down to Rose Marie's
  87 and get something quick to eat.
  88 It's not a bad way to make a living
  89 And I ain't complainin' none.
  90 For I can blow my plum and drink my rum
  91 And then go on home and have my fun

 102 Now, if someone offers me a joke
 103 I just say no thanks.
 104 I try to tell it like it is

 106 Well, everytime, you know, when the well breaks down
 107 I just go pump on it some.
 108 Rose Marie, she likes to go to big places
 109 And just sit there waitin' for me to come.
