A                        E             A
Rainy night down in the engine house
                                   E
Sleepin' just, just as still as a mouse
    A                          D
A man came along and chase us out in the rain
          A     E          A
Well was that a vigilante man?

[Verse 2]
              E               A
Stormy days, we pass the time away
                                  E
Yeah, sleeping in some good warm place
      A                                         D
And a cop come along, and we give him a little race
          A     E         A
Say was that a vigilante man?

[Verse 3]
                  E               A
Well tell me why does a vigilante man
                             E
Tell me why does a vigilante man
            A                        D
Carry that sawed off shotgun in his hands
                           A                E                  A
To shoot his brothers and sisters down, that no good vigilante man

[Guitar solo]
A E A A A A E E A A D D A E A A

[Verse 4]
                        E                  A
Well, I ramble around, yeah, from town to town
                                         E
Yeah, I ramble around, mm, from town to town
               A                                 D
Yeah and they run us around like a wild herd of cattle, lord
         E              A
Is that your vigilante man?

[Verse 5]
                E                 A
Well now why does that vigilante man
                         E
Why does that vigilante man
 A                      D
Carry that club in his hands
                  A                  E                      A
Would he beat an innocent man down, that no good vigilante man?
