F Dm Bb Fadd9 (keyboard does an up/down alternating thing)* Even numbers, even numbers F Dm Bb Fadd9 Every other number is an even number Bb Fadd9 Two, four, six, eight Bdim Fadd9 Who do we appreciate? Bb Fadd9 Ten, twelve, fourteen, sixteen Bb Fadd9 Skip all the numbers in between (F scale starting on G, two octaves) Notes: G A Bb C D E F G A Bb C D E F G Skip all the numbers that are not even, leave out the odd ones G A Bb C D E F G A Bb C D E F G Leave out the odd, you're left with the even, skip all the odd ones F (still doing alternatey thing)* Skip the first number and the second one is even Dm Skip the third and the next one's even as well Bb Fadd9 Skip the next, take the next, skip the next, take, skip, take (same as "Skip, take" verse) You like French fries, but you don't like French fries You've got socks on, but you don't have socks on You're a girl, but you're a boy, girl, boy, girl (same as "Two, four, six, eight" part) Sixteen, fourteen, twelve, ten Skip our way back down again Eight, six, four, two You but not you but you (scale part again) Yes no yes no yes no yes no red green red green red green red She loves me she loves me not she loves me she loves me not she F Dm Bb F (while numbers are named. alternatey thing is still happening.) *The alternatey thing: The keyboard is not just playing F, Dm, and Bb. It's doing this go-up-and-down by whole steps thing. So I say, go F-G-F-G-F-G-F-G Dm-Em-Dm-Em-Dm-Em-Dm-Em Bb-C-Bb-C-Bb-C-Bb-C F. (it's a lydian thing, the third moves up and down from the #11 for each chord. That can be achieved like above or just by fingering two tabs up from the third in each chord) Of course, on the F chord, the piano plays the ultra low F and then the chord. |
