Met myself a common  county welfare line
CC Piano Chord 
           GG Piano Chord 
               DD Piano Chord 

I was a-feelin' strung out, hung out on the line
GG Piano Chord 
            DD Piano Chord 
     EmEm Piano Chord 
                   CC Piano Chord 

Saw myself a-goin'   down to the war in June
GG Piano Chord 
           DD Piano Chord 
                CC Piano Chord 
              GG Piano Chord 

All I want, all I want is to write myself a tune

CHORUS:
CC Piano Chord 
                GG Piano Chord 

Wrote a song for everyone
CC Piano Chord 
                 GG Piano Chord 

Wrote a song for truth

                 GG Piano Chord 
       EmEm Piano Chord 

Wrote a song for everyone--

When I couldn't even talk to you

Verse 2:
Got myself arrested, wound me up in jail
Richmond 'bout to blow up, communication fails
If you see the answer, now's the time to say
All I want, all I want is to get you down to pray

(chorus)

(instrumental, same pattern as verses)

(chorus)

Verse 3:
Saw the people standin' a thousand years in chains
Somebody said it's a-different now; look, it's just the same
Pharaohs spin the message round and round the truth
They could have saved a million people, how can I tell you?

(repeat chorus 3 times; third time, with extra measure and instrumental
break, sing "cou-ou-ou-ou-ouldn't")
