I’ll Take a Melody (Live at French’s Camp, Piercy, CA, June 10, 1989)

Allen Toussaint

[Intro]
One, two, three, four

[Verse 1]
I've seen the rain pouring down
The sky was gray with a speck of blue
Peek through a hole in the clouds
The sun was screaming, "Hey you!"
As you ramble through your trouble
Seem like everything come out wrong
I'm living in yesterday's tomorrow
I know something's helping me along

[Chorus]
I'll take a melody and see
What I can do about it
I'll take a simple C to G
And feel brand new about it

[Bridge]
I understand why the old fisherman
Sail along, sail along, sail along
(Ooh, sail along, sail along)
Someday he'll be gone

[Verse 2]
I hear you talking about your troubles
Everybody's got their troubles too
You can make them burst like bubbles
If you know just what to do
You know, I've been called a dreamer
Dreams that never will come true
But I've been called so many things before
Tell you what I'm gonna do

[Chorus]
I'll take a melody and see
What I can do about it
I'll take a simple C to G
And feel brand new about it

[Bridge]
I understand why the old fisherman
Sail along, sail along, sail along
(Ooh, sail along, sail along)
Someday he'll be gone

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
I'll take a melody and see
What I can do about it
I'll take a simple C to G
And feel brand new about it

[Refrain]
Shine on, keep on shining
Shine on, keep on shining
Shine on, keep on shining
Shine on, keep on shining
Shine on, keep on shining
Shine on, keep on shining
Shine on, keep on shining
Shine on, keep on shining
Shine on, keep on shining

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
I understand why the old fisherman
Sail along, sail along, sail along
(Ooh, sail along, sail along)
'Cause one day he'll be gone

Thank you
