FAWM: "Bob Mould and his Chicken Parade"

Bob Mould and his Chicken Parade

Lyrics

Bob Mould and his Chicken Parade (Dargan)
E G A
There is no more Hüsker Dü
E G A
And it’s time to start anew
E G A
There is no more Hüsker Dü
E G A
And a new sound starts to brew
C G A C G B
Drive back to the farm Where it’s safe and warm

D C# B E
Bob Mould and his chicken parade (2x)

E G A
All these months of solitude
E G A
A loud and lonely music room
E G A
There is no more Hüsker Dü
E G A
And we’re still years from Copper Blue
C G A C G B
Drive back to the farm Where it’s safe and warm

Bob Mould and his chicken parade (2x)

C#m
Minnesota solitaire
B
Open Workbook on the chair
A G#m
Winding myself down to zero
F#m B
And then spinning myself back up again

C G A
Drive back to the farm
C G B
Where it’s safe and warm

Bob Mould and his chicken parade (4x)

I LOVE Bob Mould. He’s been on a tear for so many albums now, where many would either quit or phone it in. I love how you put in all of the names of albums and some biographical references. That guitar playing is really cool and memorable. Very well done!

I can't say I get the chicken reference here but this is an awesome song. I can also think of a band that might want to add this to their repertoire, hint hint. Did I ever tell you that we opened for Husker Du back in the day?

@jddietz 2w

awesome!! i recently read about husker du in 'our band could be your life' and this is great. i like how you treat bob mould kinda like some character from an old blues song, if that makes sense.

@juancaseamamos 2w

Workbook has inspirational impact! Thank you for bringing some great music to us! Thoughtful like always :) Don’t know any HUSKER DU. You hit hard with unexpected chord changes and tempo. Which HUSKER DU song comes recommended with chicken?

@theenglishassassin 2w

You grabbed my attention with a great title, even though I have no idea who Bob Mould is and why he'd have a chicken parade :)
Very infectious rhythm and lyrics and leaves me wanting to go check out Hüsker Dü. Great!
