The Load-Out Stay

Вступление

Jackson Browne - The Load Out / Stay

Intro:

G - Bm - C - Em - C - D - G(opmaat) - G/C - G (2x)

Now the seats are all empty, let the roadies take the stage

Pack it up and tear it down. They're the first to come and the last to leave

Working for that minimum wage

they'll set it up in another town

Tonight the people were so fine, they waited there in line

And when they got up on their feet, they made the show

And that was sweet, but I can hear the sound

Of slamming doors and folding chairs, and that's a sound they'll never know

Now, roll them cases out and lift them amps

Haul them trusses down and get 'em up them ramps

'Cause when it comes to moving me, you know you guys are the champs

But when that last guitar's been packed away, you know that I still want to play

So just make sure you've got it all set to go before you come for my piano

G - Bm - C - Em - C - D - G(opm.) - G/C - G (2x)

But the band's on the bus and they're waiting to go

We've got to drive all night and do a show in Chicago

Or Detroit, I don't know, we do so many shows in a row

And these towns all look the same

We just pass the time in our hotel rooms and wander 'round backstage

Till those lights come up and we hear that crowd and we remember why we came

G - Bm - C - Em - C - D - G(opm.) - G/C - G (2x)

Now we got country and western on the bus, R & B

We got disco on eight tracks and cassettes in stereo

We've got rural scenes and magazines, and we got truckers on CD

We got Richard Pryor on the video. And we got time to think of the ones we love

While the miles roll away, but the only time that seems too short

Is the time that we get to play

People you've got the power over what we do

You can sit there and wait, or you can pull us through

Come along, sing the song, you know that you can't go wrong

'Cause when that morning sun comes beating down

You're gonna wake up in your town

But we'll be scheduled to appear a thousand miles away from here

People, stay... just a little bit longer , we wanna play-hey,

just a little bit longer

If the promoter don't mind, and the union don't mind

If we'll take a little time and we'll leave it all behind, sing... one more song

Oh, won't you stay... just a little bit longer

Please, please, please say, you will, say you will

Oh, won't you stay... just a little bit longer.

Oh, please, please stay just a little bit more, ehehe

Now if the promoter don't mind, and the roadies don't mind

We can take a little time and we'll leave it all behind sing one more song

G - Em - C - D (repeat a few times, fade out)
