G
I knew a boy down in Oklahoma City
A
D
A
Who used to play guitar
G
A
for the enjoyment of friends
D
A
Happy little melodies,
G
A
simple inoffensives
D
A
Went round and round,
G
A
merry tunes without ends
G
A
But the words that he painted with
G
A
drew pictures in the air
G
A
Pretty patterns, lovely images
G
to make the world stare
A
D
A
But when he expected
D
to see friends in trance
G
D
G
Found that nobody listened
D
But everybody danced
G
Everybody danced to
A
the rhythms he played
D
Nobody noticed
G
A
the pictures he portrayed
D
G
Moving and grooving
A
and ignoring his trade
D

So he picked up his twelfth string
G
A
and slowed the pace down,
D
A
But everybody shuffled
G
and boogied along
A
D
A
As he told tales of heartbreak
G
and stories of loving
A
D
They rickled and moved
A
G
to the chords of his song
A
G
A
So he just shrugged his shoulders
G
A
and strummed on his strings
G
And he chanted himself
A
G
A
with his words that had wings
D
A
He ignored all his audience
D
except for a glance
G
D
G
To see that nobody listened
D
A

But everybody danced

Everybody danced to

His fame reached the ears
A
G
A
of a New York producer
D
A
who leapt on a jumbo
G
A
and signed him that day.
D
He would make him the king
A
G
A
of the discotheque fever,
D
cause the kid really rocked,
A
G
A
really knew how to play.
G
A
G
He deserted his lyrics for trivial licks
A
G
A
and for funky arrangements
G
with gimmicky tricks.
A
D
A
When they rushed out his records,
D
it happened by chance
G
D
G
But everybody listened
D
A
and nobody danced
D
G
A
Nobody danced to the rhythms he played
D
G
Everybody noticed
A
the pictures he portrayed
D
G
Never moving, never grooving,
A
appreciating his trade
D
G
But nobody danced
D
G
A
to the music he made
D
A
G

He didn't go
