Kinky Friedman - "Sold American" - Live at Black Bear Lodge chords
Start Jamming...
So [C#] send us out to Pete [D] this evening.
Pete?
[A]
Faded, jaded, [G] fallen [D] cowboy star
[A] Pawn shops itching [G] for your old [D] guitar
[G]
Where you going ain't [D] nobody knows
[G] The [Em] sequins are falling from your [A]
clothes
Once you heard the [G] Aubrey [D] crowd applaud
[A] Now you're hanging [G] out in [D] North and Broad
[G] On a rain wet [D] sidewalk remembering the time
[G] When coffee with [Em] a friend was still [A] a dime
[D] And everything was [Em] neat, so old American
[A]
The early times is finished [G] and the one at [D] Dollar Inn
[Em] Everyone's been so old American
[A] Been dreaming [G] dreams in a rolling [D] bin
[A] Writing down your memoirs on [G] some window in [D] the frost
[A] Roulette eyes reflecting [G] another [D] morning lost
[G] Hauled in by the metro for killing time in pain
[G] With a singing [Em]
breakman screaming through [A] your veins
[D] And everything's been [Em] so old American
[A] The lonely night is mourning [G] for a dead that [D] never died
Everyone's [Em] been so old American
[A] Don't let me catch you laughing when [G] the [D] jukebox cries
[A]
You told me you were born so [G] much [D] higher than life
[A] But I've seen the faded pictures [G] of your children [D] and your wife
[G] Now they're fumbling through your wallet
[D] And they're trying to find your name
[G] It's almost like [Em] they raised the price of [A] fame
[D] And everything's been [Em]
so old American
[A] No place to go and no [G] place [D] to stay
Everyone's [Em] been so old American
[A] Let heaven's golden greyhound [G] roll your [D] soul away
[A] Let heaven's golden greyhound [G] roll your soul [D] away
