Well you [D] heard about the [B7] alligators [Em] sleepin' in the [A] shade
You [D] heard about the [B7] sugar barons [Em] messin' up the [A] 'glades
It's a [D] melting pot exis-[D7]tence that is [G] hard to contem-[Gm]plate
And a [A] never ending [A7] battle in the [D7] Sunshine State
But [D] far far [B7] away from the [Em] front page [A] news
[D] Far far [B7] away from the [Em] headline [A] blues
Down a [D] secondary [D7] road that [G] severely shows its [Gm] age
The [A] forties comes to [A7] life on a [D7] makeshift stage
It's the [D] Bob [B7] Roberts [Em] Society [A] Band
[D] Playin' every [B7] Sunday at the [Em] orange grove [A] stand
They [D] don't play [D7] grunge and they [G] don't play [Gm] loud
It's the [A] magic of the [A7] music that [D7] still draws a crowd
Well the [D] word goes [B7] out from [Em] Melbourne to the [A] Keys
The [D] faithful get the [B7] message like it's [Em] written on the [A] breeze
[D] Young folks [D7] old folks [G] vow to cut a [Gm] rug
[A] Fox trot, [A7] bunny hop, [D7] do the jitterbug
I saw [D] mini vans from [B7] Boca, [Em] buses from Perr-[A]ine
There were [D] people speakin' [B7] Hindu in the [Em] barbecue [A] line
A [D] couple on their [D7] honeymoon [G] looked a bit con-[Gm]fused
But the [A] boys in the [A7] band put 'em [D7] right in the mood
A [D] lady dressed in [B7] purple started [Em] dancin' all a-[A]lone
Then she [D] sauntered oh so [B7] gently to the [Em] vacant micro-[A]phone
She [D] sounded like she's [D7] someone and [G] never missed a [Gm] beat
By the [A] time the number [A7] ended they were [D7] dancin' in the street
They [D] died and gone to [B7] heaven that [Em] lively little [A] crowd
[D] Trombones and [B7] saxophones [Em] sent 'em thru the [A] clouds
They [D] coulda gone all [D7] night but the [G] party had to [Gm] stop
When they [A] blew the circuit [A7] breaker in the [D7] souvenir shop
It's the [D] Bob [B7] Roberts [Em] Society [A] Band
[D] Playin' every [B7] Sunday at the [Em] orange grove [A] stand
They [D] don't play [D7] grunge and they [G] don't play [Gm] loud
It's the [A] magic of the [A7] music that [D7] still draws a [D] crowd
[D] Oh Yeah!
