[D] [E]
[A] [E]
My friends, they wash [A] the windows and they shine in the [E] sun.
[A] Tell me wake up early in the morning, sometimes you heard a beautiful [E] chopper gun.
[A] I said let's put our subdued longing, we're a few little [E] off the hay.
[A] Down to the riverside, take off our [D] shoes and wash these [E] sins away.
Whoever [A] said, la la [D] la, I said [E] shame on you.
[A]
[E] I go down to Chicano City Park because it makes me feel [E] so fine.
And [A] when the weeds go down, you can see up close [B] and dead of the [E] wintertime.
[A] But when the summer comes, everything's in [D] bloom and you wouldn't [E] know it there.
[A] And the white folks like to pretend it's [B] not there.
The [E] music's in the air, you can [A] hear them singing.
La la [D] la, I said [F#] shame on you.
I feel them [A] dancing, la la la, I said [E] shame on you.
My [A] friend, she said you know me and Jesus, we're of the [E] same heart.
[A] The only thing that keeps us distant [B] is that I keep [E] looking up.
I [A] said come on down to Chicano City [F#] Park and watch the blues go away.
[F#] Beautiful ladies walk right [A] by and I never know [E] what to say.
I never [A] say it, [E] shame on you.
I've been [A] dancing, la la la, I said [E] shame on you, [A] shame on you.
[F#] [A]
[C#m] [Em] [A] [B]
[A] [E]
[A] [B]
[E] [A] Snow road black, tripping in the middle of the [D] night.
Up against [E] the town.
[A] The people like flashing down the long good [D] road when they ask them to [E] step out.
They say we've been looking for illegal immigrants.
[D] Yeah, we'll check your [E] car.
Say no, honey, I think we're on the same boat [D] back in [E] 1694.
And I said [A] [D]
shame [E] on you.
They'll be [A] dancing, la la la, [D] I said shame [E] on you.
I [A] said,
[E] shame [A] on you, la la la, shame [E] on you.
[A] I said, I said, la la [B] la, shame on you.
They'll be [A] dancing, la la [B] la,
