Try these Brass. A fave of mine from 1971.





Seeds and Stems Again


INTRO: chords to last verse line, twice (G F C   G F C   )

V1:
C                E                F                      C
I'm sittin alone, Saturday night, watching the Late Late Show.
C                E                F                  C
A bottle of wine, some cigarettes, I got no place to go.
A                      G          F                           C
Well, I saw your other man today; he was wearing my brand new shoes,
       G                F            C
And I'm down to seeds and stems again, too.

V2:
Well, I met my old friend Bob today from up in Bowling Green;
He had the prettiest little gal that I'd ever seen.
But I couldn't hide my tears at all, cause she looked just like you,
And I'm down to seeds and stems again, too.

CHORUS:
F             C       F                         C
Now everybody tells me there's other ways to get high.
F                  C    A         D               G
They don't seem to understand I'm too far gone to try.
    C            E       F                   C
Now these lonely memories, they're all I can't lose,
       G                F            C
And I'm down to seeds and stems again, too.

[Verse solo, fiddle/steel]

V3:
[first line spoken, not sung]   
Well my dog died just yesterday and left me all alone.
The finance company dropped by today and repossessed my home.
That's just a drop in the bucket compared to losing you,
And I'm down to seeds and stems again, too.
TAG:    G                F          C
Got the Down to Seeds and Stems again Blues.
