2 Chords Songtext
von Bob Hinrichs

2 chords, heh
These are my favorite chords, heh
And I′ll play them a million times, huh
Until they slammin' down all the walls, hah!
And then there are lots of chords, hey
But only two of them are these 2 chords, hah
And they′re the ones a-gonna make ya' move, ho
And they're the ones that are my favorite chords, ha

Now listen in a time of much renown, aw
There was a man named James Brown, aw
An′ when the brotha played these 2 chords, ah
The whole world was gettin′ down, yeah


With these 2 chords, hey
And I'll play them a million times, ha
And they′ll be shakin' up your spinal cord, aw
And these are my favorite chords, ha
And then there are lotsa′ chords, hah
But only two of them are these 2 chords, hah
And they're the ones a-gonna make ya′ move, ho
And they're the ones that are my favorite chords, ha
Go!

My momma told me 'bout soul, huh
But I had to learn it the hard way, hoh
But I tell ya′ when ya′ got it, ha, ho
It's the power turnin′ night to day, hah
You know when I was down all the way, ha
There was really nothin' left to do, huh
When I heard somebody say, huh
Nobody else is gonna help you through

And that′s when I picked me up
Had to do it all by myself
And I did it with these 2 chords, aw
Nothin' else woulda′ got me through


With these 2 chords, hey
And I'll play them a million times, ha
And they'll be shakin′ up your spinal cord, ho
And these are my favorite chords, huh
And then there are lotsa′ chords, hah
But only two of them are these 2 chords, hah
And they're the ones a-gonna make ya′ move, ho
And they're the ones that are these 2 chords, ha

You′ve got to see yourself
If you gonna wanna free yourself
And you got to free yourself
If you ever wanna be yourself
Listen to me
You've got to see yourself, ho
If you gonna wanna free yourself, ho
And you gonna wanna free yourself, hah
If you gonna wanna be yourself
Listen to me

2 chords, heh
And I′ll play them a million times, huh
And they be shakin' up your spinal cord, aw
And these are my favorite chords, hah!
And then there are lots of chords, hey
But only two of them are these 2 chords, hah
And they're the ones a-gonna make ya′ move, ho
And they′re the ones that are my favorite chords, ha

Hey fellas
Can you hit me once
Can you hit me twice
Can you hit me thrice
Can we hit it and quit
