Alphonse Mambo chords by The Mountain Goats

Verse 1:
D                Em7
i could almost hear the rhythm section
   Asus            D
kick in as the sun began to blaze.
D             Em7
i saw you walk across the plaza,
Asus               D
figured I'd just play it like it lays.
     Em7    Asus      D
yeah yeah yeah.


Verse 2:
D                 Em7
i think i'm gonna be real sick again.
Asus              D
i think it's gonna happen real soon.
   D               Em7
and i know i can't afford another night here in this place,
      Asus           D
with its sixteenth floor view of the ocean and the dunes
    Em7           Asus D
and it's gonna be, just you and me today,
        G       Asus     D
waiting for the other shoe to drop in Tampa Bay.

Verse 3:
D             Em7
i can hear the roar of the crowd
Asus               D
in the stadium a couple of blocks away.
D                     Em7
it's the kind of thing that used to get me all worked up,
  Asus                  D
but i don't want to talk about it now, ok, ok? ok.


Verse 4:
D                  Em7
i just want to get this whole thing over with.
Asus              D
i don't want to deal with it anymore.
      D            Em7
i hear the cogs all slipping at the same time,
  Asus                D
and then i see you walk in through the door.
    Em7           Asus D
and it's gonna be, just you and me today,
        G       Asus     D
