F-Stop Blues — Jack Johnson
Chords and lyrics for F-Stop Blues by Jack Johnson (key of A).
Verse
[E]Hermit crabs and [B]cowry shells
Crush [A]beneath his feet as he comes towards you
He's [E]waving at [B][A]you
Lift him[E] up to see what [B]you can see
[A]He begins his focusing
He's [E]aiming at [B][A]you
And now he has [E]cutaways from [B]memories
[A]And close-ups of anything that
[E]He has seen or [B]even dreamed
And [A]now he's finished focusing
He's [E]imagining [B]lightning
[A]Striking sea sickness
[E]Away [B]from [A]here
Chorus
[E]Look who's laughing [G#]now that [A]you've [B]wasted
[E]How many [G#]years and you've [A]barely even [B]tasted
[E]Anything remotely [G#]close to
[A]Everything you've [B]boasted about
[E]Look who's crying [G#]now[B][A]
Verse
[E]Driftwood floats, after [B]years of erosion
[A]Incoming tide touches roots to expose them,
[E]Quicksand [B]steals my shoe,
[A]Clouds bring the f-stop blues
Chorus
[E]Look who's laughing [G#]now that [A]you've [B]wasted
[E]How many [G#]years and you've [A]barely even [B]tasted
[E]Anything [G#]remotely close to
[A]Everything you've [B]boasted about
[E]Look who's crying [G#]now[B][A]
