A C
Well, I used to drive a cab, you know
C
I heard a siren scream
D
Pulled over to the corner
C Asus2
And I fell into a dream
A
There were two men eating pennies
C
And three young girls who cried
D
The West coast is falling,
C Asus2
I see rocks in the sky.
E7
The preacher took his bible
And laid it on the stool.
D
He said: with the congregation running,
C Asus2 A Asus2 A
Why should I play the fool?
Well, I used to be a woman, you know
C
I took you for a ride,
D
I let you fly my airplane
C A
It looked good for your pride.
'Cause you're the kind of man you know
C
Who likes what he says.
D
I wonder what's it's like
C A
To be so far over my head.
E7
Well, the lady made the wedding
And she brought along the ring.
D C
She got down on her knees
C Asus2 A7
And said: Let's get on with this thing.
Well, I used to be a folk singer
C
Keeping managers alive,
D
When you saw me on a corner
C A7
And told me I was jive.
So I unlocked your mind, you know
C
To see what I could see.
D
If you guarantee the postage,
C A7
I'll mail you back the key.
E7
Well I woke up in the morning
With an arrow through my nose
D Dsus4
There was an Indian in the corner
C Asus2 Em Asus2 Em
Tryin' on my clothes.
A
Well, I used to be asleep you know
C
With blankets on my bed.
D
I stayed there for a while
C Asus2 A
'Til they discovered I was dead.
The coroner was friendly
C
And I liked him quite a lot.
D
If I hadn't 've been a woman
C Asus2
I guess I'd never have been caught.
E7
They gave me back my house and car
Asus2 A
And nothing more was said.
Well, I was driving down the freeway
C
When my car ran out of gas.
D
Pulled over to the station
C A
But I was afraid to ask.
The servicemen were yellow
C
And the gasoline was green.
D
Although I knew I couldn't
C A
I thought that I was gonna scream.
E7
That was on my last trip to Tulsa
Just before the snow.
D Dsus4
If you ever need a ride there,
C Asus2 Em x4 Asus2
Be sure to let me know.
A
I was chopping down a palm tree
C
When a friend dropped by to ask
D
If I would feel less lonely
C Asus2
If he helped me swing the axe.
A C
I said: No, it's not a case of being lonely
We have here,
D
I've been working on this palm tree
C C A Asus2 A Asus2 A Asus2 A Asus2 A
For eighty seven years
C
I said: No, it's not a case of being lonely
We have here,
D
I've been working on this palm tree
C A7
For eighty seven years
E7
He said: Go get lost!
And walked towards his Cadillac.
D Dsus4
I chopped down the palm tree
C
And it landed on his back.
