INTRO Recitation (over riff above):
"I started out writin' this song about . . . [insert own music gods!]"
[Notes: * each chord name below = one entire "bum-chicky-bum-chicky";
* (...sus4) = add sus4 to 2nd half of measure)
* letters in are bass notes than can optionally be
incorporated into guitar accompaniment]
VERSE 1: [add sus4 to 2nd half of G measures at will]
See him wasted on the sidewalk in his jacket and his jeans,
DO DO SOL SOLWearin' yesterday's misfortunes like a smile--
DO DO SOL MImOnce he had a future full of money, love, and dreams,
Which he spent like they was goin' outa style--
SOL SOL SOL SOLAnd he keeps right on a'changin' for the better or the worse,
DO RE SOL SOLSearchin' for a shrine he's never found--
Never knowin' if believin' is a blessin' or a curse,
DO RE SOL SOLOr if the goin' up was worth the comin' down--
CHORUS
He's a poet, he's a picker--
SOL SOLHe's a prophet, he's a pusher--
RE RE RE SOLHe's a pilgrim and a preacher, and a problem when he's stoned--
He's a walkin' contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction,
RE RE RE SOL SOLTakin' ev'ry wrong direction on his lonely way back home.
[modulate whole-step up:] A (...sus4) A (...sus4)
VERSE 2: [add sus4 to 2nd half of A measures at will]
He has tasted good and evil in your bedrooms and your bars,
RE RE LA LAAnd he's traded in tomorrow for today--
RE RE LA FA#mRunnin' from his devils, Lord, and reachin' for the stars,
And losin' all he's loved along the way--
LA LA LA LABut if this world keeps right on turnin' for the better or the worse,
RE MI LA LAAnd all he ever gets is older and around--
From the rockin' of the cradle to the rollin' of the hearse,
D(or Bm) E A A
The goin' up was worth the comin' down--
CHORUS
He's a poet, he's a picker--
LA LAHe's a prophet, he's a pusher--
MI MI MI LAHe's a pilgrim and a preacher, and a problem when he's stoned--
He's a walkin' contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction,
MI MI MI LA LA / SOL# FA#Takin' ev'ry wrong direction on his lonely way back home.
