[Intro]

(4 bars)


[Verse 1]

       (Bm)
Take a little walk to the edge of town and go across the tracks
Where the viaduct looms like a bird of doom as it shifts and cracks
      Em
Where secrets lie in the border fires in the humming wires
                                     Bm
Hey man you know you're never coming back
Past the square past the bridge past the mills past the stacks
     F#7
On a gathering storm comes a tall handsome man
     E7
In a dusty black coat with a red right hand
Bm


[Verse 2]

      (Bm)
He'll wrap you in his arms tell you that you've been a good boy
He'll rekindle all the dreams it took you a lifetime to destroy
      Em
He'll reach deep into the hole heal your shrinking soul
                                               Bm
But there won't be a single thing that you can do
He's a God he's a man he's a ghost he's a gu-ru
        F#7
They're whispering his name through this disappearing land
    E7
But hidden in his coat is a red right hand
Bm


[Verse 3]

    (Bm)
You don't have no money he'll get you some
You don't have no car he'll get you one
    Em
You don't have no self respect you feel like an insect
                                          Bm
Well don't you worry buddy 'cause here he comes
Through the ghettos and the barrio and the bowery and the slum
  F#7
A shadow is cast wherever he stands
E7
Stacks of green paper in his red right hand
Bm

[Verse 4]

       (Bm)
You'll see him in your nightmares you'll see him in your dreams
He'll appear out of nowhere but he ain't what he seems
Em
  You'll see him in your head on the TV screen
                                         Bm
Hey buddy I'm warning you to turn it off
He's a ghost he's a God he's a man he's a gu-ru
           F#7
You're one microscopic cog in his catastrophic plan
   E7
De-signed and directed by his red right hand
