Well they blew up the chicken man in Philly last night
     A                   E           A, E
Now that town sets in for a fight

(no chord, turning page)
Doo doo doo

A                       E        A, E
Frighten'd of the dice they roll
           A                         E
Where the highway ends and the sand turns to gold
    A                       E        A, E
The turnpike ends and turns to gold

A, E

A, E
    Hmmm

A                      A                              E      A, E    
Me and my baby- well I drew my money from the Central Trust
      A                               E        A, E
And I hopped with my guitar on a greyhound bus
        A                  E                   A, E
Headin' down south money and guitar in my hand
     A                           E        A, E
On a one way ticket to the promised land
              A                   E       A
Out where they- baby, through the wood, run
                                  A, E
Down where the iron turn to rust

 A                         A
And your weekend pa... Your week pay baby...
              A                    E               A, E
And your weeks pay in a minute just turns to dust
A                    E          A, E
Me again baby I wouldn't leave
A               E        A, E
  Again 'till I believe
      A                          E          A, E
That some gonna stand, man some gonna fall
    A                                  E           A, E
And some ain't gonna get to play the game at all

          A                                E          A, E
Well they give you the worst and they take the best
       A                                    E      A, E
For a fist full of dollars and a little bit less
A    E
Hey!
     A, E, A, E
Now!
A        E
Na na na...
A          E
Da da da...

A, E x2

        A                                  E      A            E
Well a-broke and busted I went down to the clock - on a clock
      A                             E       A, E
And I took my guitar baby, put her in hock
A, E
  Hmmm

A, E

          A                E        A, E
Baby what's a poor boy gonna do?

A, E x2

   A                                 B  E      
A fist full of dollars and a little bit less
A    E
Da da da...
