Friends:
Why?
Stephen:
Cause I said 1570's muff instead of 1470's muff
and the medieval period ended at the beginning
of the 16th century.
Friends:
So thats 1500's.
Wait! So how do you know this?
Stephen:
Cause I used to be a teacher.
Friends:
(Laugh)You used to be a teacher?
Stephen:

Friends:

Stephen:
No, I taught elementary school and I got fired
because I had an unorthodox way of teaching which
is I would bring in my guitar and...

Friends:

lessons to the children.
Friends:
Of course you did.

Looking for a place to dock,
Am C
They said fuck it here's Plymouth Rock,
Dm Am
Write it down muthafuckas.
Friends:

pilgrims were lazy.
Stephen:
I'm not implying anything.
Friend:

I think this is correct. If you don't think it sounds right,
by all means correct me. :-)
Enjoy the song!
The lyrics on the Abe Lincoln part are wrong. It's'Emanci-mother****in'-proclamation', as in Emancipation Proclamation, not 'and made some...'
i'm pretty sure the last Am you're not sure about should be E.
i think it sounds about right, except the Dm, which i believe should be Dsus4, which looks like this:x-x-0-2-3-3
