Chasing My Tail
(Intro harp solo)
(V1) I remember when we first met
I really thought our paths were set
(Chr) Chasing my tail
Round and round
You've got me chasing my tail...
(V2) I'm dizzy, don't know what to do
It's time to be done with you
(Chr) Chasing my tail
Round and round
You've got me chasing my tail...
(FJ solo)
(Brdg) Now that I've come to my senses
No more honey do's
I see the world through different lenses
It's time to fly the coup...
Our ship is sinking fast
No more honey don'ts
If our love was meant to last
Why did you leave me alone...alone...alone?
(Ron solo)
(Chr ) (FJ harmony guitars)
(V3) I need to stop thinking about you
And put on my travelin' boots
(Repeat Brdg)
(Lorne outro solo to fade)

These rock tracks you guys produce are first class, Farrell. Great writing, great production and great performances by all involved. Not only super rock but also some excellent unexpected chords changes that work so well.

I agree with Ray, cool chord sequence, a lot of fun and fantasy, cool riffs everywhere, magnific bright sounds from all the Cuzns!  Really it reminds me of the best WHO, the genius of Townshend, things like that !

[Zoltan]

This is a great one! There's lots of things going on, and you manage to keep the song always changing yet also catchy! The choruses had an 80's vibe to them. I kept thinking 80's movies. The bridge was another strong part. Interesting lyrics also.

[Redler]

A real toe tapper!!! The rhythm guitar has a Thorogood vibe, imo...

Excellent playing and singing!

Good one Farrel love the tones on those leads and that excellent chug pulling the song along  .... Like the rest of us I spend most of my life chasing my tail

[Mike_S]

Brilliant Farrell. I like the organ type sound you used on the Tele, that really stands out and gives a lot of character. But this is a barnstorming track. Great vocal performance and I love those lead tones and playing on the outro. Well done all.
