Peapod

Lời bài hát kèm hợp âm cùng dòng

[Verse 1]
[D]Another song that was first released on our
1992 independent
album, Star- Studded- Super- Step.
Definitely a concert favorite
because of it's funk
vibe and catchy, though simple,
chorus. Over the years,
having [Dm]someone yell out 'Peapod'
during a show was [F]as [Dm]common as someone
[F]yelling [D]'Freebird'.
The version on Mindsize also
featured an audio clip
from Bob Ross, the happy painter,
a tradition started with the
Star- Studded cut.
[Dm]In fact, [D]the name of the song came
[Dm]from Bob Ross' little
pocket pet, Peapod the

[Verse 2]
Pocket Squirrel.
[D]The song seems to work against
itself a bit [Dm]lyrically,
but I think it works out well.
The verses [D]point to the wayward
lives that we often
live, straying from our walk
with the Lord.
The verses also [Dm]stress that
we need to "get back to
His side", and [D]how true that is.
The chorus, on the other hand,
simply [Dm]says "It's alright".
.. which would seem to point [D]to a
spiritual laziness,
but I don't be[Dm]lieve that
is the case.
The truth is, in [D]the same breath
that the Lord is showing
us the error of our ways,
He is also comforting us
and showing us abundant
love.
[Dm]I've been standing here

Can I chase away [D]the [Dm]blues?
And [D]will I [Dm]understand this?
