None of them
D Am7 D Am7 Cdim
I was born on a farm out in I - o - way
G Am7 G Am7 Cdim
A flamin' youth, I was bound I would fly a - way
D Am7 D Cdim Am7 G E7 Am7 Cdim
I packed my grip and I grabbed my sax - o - phone.
D Am7 D Am7 Cdim
Can't read a note, but I play an y - thing by ear
G Am7 G Am7 Cdim
I made up tunes on the sounds that I used to hear
E7 A7 Em7 A
When I'd start to play, folks used to say,
D7 Am7 D7/9 Cdim G
"Sounds a lit - tle 'Goof - us' to me."
Bridge:
G Am7 D Am7 G
Corn - fed chords ap - peal to me --
F# G#m7 C# G#m7 F#
I like rus - tic har - mo - ny.
F Gm7 C Gm7 F
Hold a note and change the key --
E7 A7
Hey, that's "Goof - us"
G Am7 D Am7 G
Not ac - cor - ding to the rules
F# G#m7 C# G#m7 F#
That you learn in mu - sic schools,
F Gm7 C Gm7 F
But the folks just dance like fools --
E B7 A7
They sure go for "Goof - us."
D Am7 D Am7 Cdim
Got a job, but I just could - n't keep it long
G Am7 G Am7 Cdim
The lead - er said that I played all the mu - sic wrong
D Am7 D Cdim Am7 G E7 Am7 Cdim
So I stepped out with an out - fit of my own.
D Am7 D Am7 Cdim
Got to - geth - er a new kind of or - ches - tree,
G Am7 G Am7 Cdim
And we all played just the same "Goof - us" har - mo - ny,
E7 A7 Em7 A
And I must ad - mit we made a hit --
D Am7 D Cdim G
"Goof - us" has been luck - y for me
Coda:
D Am7 D Cdim G
"Goof - us" has been luck - y for me
D Am7 D Am7 Fdim D7 D+ Cdim G
"Goof - us" has been luck - y for me
