I've no idea what this song is about. Basically I took a Bob Dylan song (spoiler alert: I'll tell you which one at the bottom) then wrote new words, chords and tune, with the words roughly based on things I've seen around my home town. Otherwise the words don't really make any sense, but if you can extract any meaning from it, I'd love to know what it is! I think experts may still recognise which song I started from, anyway...
Lyrics and Chords:
[C][Am]
[C]I walked along the Millgate where the [Am]apple orchard lies
[F]Climbed the captain's monument, [C]under leaden [G]skies
Saw the [C]statues and the paintings at the [Am]gallery in town
But [F]no-one paid [Am]attention to the [G]circus or the [C]clown
[F]What's going on? Been [C]trapped out here all [G7]year
But there's [C]one more [E7]day to [Am]get [C7]through,
and [F]then I'm [G]out of [C]here
[C][E7][Am][C7][F][Gsus][G][C]
The [C]couriers deliver, their [Am]jewels and bagatelles
[F]Furnishing with prizes, but they [C]never ring my [G]bell
I [C]saw the doctor yesterday but [Am]he did not see me
Do [F]I need some as[Am]sistance or [G]am I in a [C]dream?
[F]What's going on? Been [C]trapped out here all [G7]year
But there's [C]one more [E7]day to [Am]get [C7]through,
and [F]then I'm [G]out of [C]here
[C][E7][Am][C7][F][Gsus][G][C]
[C]My uncle came to visit, we [Am]went out for a meal
[F]Found an Italian place, that [C]said BYO[G]B
We [C]went into the restaurant, they said [Am]they were fully booked
But [F]all the seats were [Am]empty and they [G]couldn't find the [C]cook
[F]What's going on? Been [C]trapped out here all [G7]year
But there's [C]one more [E7]day to [Am]get [C7]through,
and [F]then I'm [G]out of [C]here
[C][E7][Am][C7][F][Gsus][G][C]
[C][E7][Am][C7][F][Gsus][G][C]
[C][Csus4][C][Csus4]
The [C]horses by the country track are [Am]chewing on their hay
But [F]when I take that path, they [C]all just turn [G]away
And the [C]children eat their ice cream but the [Am]dogs will snarl and bark
Before [F]running to the [Am]most convenient [G]trees in the [C]park
[F]What's going on? Been [C]trapped out here all [G7]year
But there's [C]one more [E7]day to [Am]get [C7]through,
and [F]then I'm [G]out of [C]here
[C][E7][Am][C7][F][Gsus][G][C]
[C]One more [E7]day to [Am]get [C7]through,
and [F]then I'm [G]out of [C]here
