[N] [E] [Em] [G]
[A]
Strollin' down the highway with [D] my shoes in my hand
[E] I don't talk much, I'm a [A] quiet man
Beauty and silence [D] both run deep
And I'm [E] runnin' like crazy [A] while you are asleep
You got [G] news for me, I got [A] nothin' for you
Don't pin [G] your blues on me
Just go [A] ahead and do whatever [D] you wish [E] to
[G] [A] Last Monday night [D] I saw a fight
[E] Between Wednesday and Thursday over [A] Saturday night
Tuesday asked me what [D] was goin' on
I said, [E] Sunday's in the meadow and [A]
Friday's in the corn
You got [G] news for me, I got [A] nothin' for you
Don't pin your [G] blues on me
Just go [A] ahead and do whatever [D] you wish [Em] to
[E]
[A] Hocus pocus, [D]
maladjusted
[E] Don't you think my [A] tears get rusted?
Steady losin' [D] means you ain't usin'
What [E] you really think is [A] right
You got [G] news for me, I got [A] nothin' for you
Don't pin your [G] blues on me
Just go [A] ahead and do whatever [D]
you wish [E] to
[A]
Oodles of light, what [D] a beautiful sight
