SUPER SKIER by Bob Gibson

Based on the recording by the Chad Mitchell Trio

This section is played rubato. Only strum once on the word beneath the chord. A D Well, they called him Super Skier as he sat around the sun deck, A E7 For he swore that he would never take a spill. (Start regular strum on A chord) A D When they finally brought him down, they had to use three toboggans E7 A To carry all the pieces down the hill! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A D CHORUS: He was coming down that slope, doing 90 miles an hour A E7 When he caught an edge on his ski. A D Well, his clothes they were fast, but the slopes they were faster. E7 A That's the last of Super Skier we shall see! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A D Well, he hollered "What the hell!" as he lined them parallel. A E7 He figured there was nothing more to learn. A D And as he started on his way, he shouted "Andale," E7 A Assuming that he'd never have to turn. A D Well, he was slippen’ down that slope, doing 90 miles an hour, A E7 When a mo-gul flipped him in the air; A D His jumping form was fine until he ran into that pine, E7 A And two one-legged skiers left from there!

CHORUS

Super Skier page 2

A D When he left that tree at last, he was moving twice as fast; A E7 Both halves were skimming moguls like a feather. A D He said, If,I must be, a super personality, E7 A How can I ever keep my knees to-gether?" D (Spoken) One skier was headed north, and the other headed west, A E7 'Cause both of them, you see, were running freer, A D And folks on Little Nell, looked up scared as hell, E7 D A Break Pause Said, "It's a bird, it's a plane, NO ITS SUPER SKIER!" (No, it's a bird!)

CHORUS

A D Now the moral of my story, though my story's kind of gory, Single strum on word next 2 lines A E7 Break Is, for all you sun-deck Charlies there's still hope. A A 7 D Dm You buy the fastest clothes you can, then talk skiing like a man, Start regular strum and tempo on E7 chord E7 A But don't let people catch you on the slopes!

CHORUS

A E7 A And let’s get Charlie off the M. – T. - A.!
