[Bb]
[Gb] [Ab]
[F] [Fm] [Bb]
[Gb] [Ab]
[F] [Fm] [Bb]
[Gb] [Ab]
[Fm] [Bb]
[Gb] [Bb]
[F] He got the odd sign so [Bb] he jumped the bus
[Gb] Along the roads that wind [Ab] on through
[F] The hot Mojave [Bb] and the Jericho
[Gb] He'd start his whole life [Ab] anew
[F] And what he left [Bb] behind he hadn't valued
[Gb] Half as much [Ab] as the big Big [F] business
[Db]
[Bb] [F] [Db]
[Eb] [F] [Db]
[Eb] [Fm]
[Bb] [Gb]
[Ab] Right around [F] sundown
He got what he was [Bb] on a street in town
[Gbm] Great old man
[Ab] Son, [C] [F] this ain't [Bb] no western booby bat thing
[Ab] You're a long way off from Nippian Day
[F] You're not the pale-headed lass, [Bb] you're not
[Ab] You got a green look about you
That's a gringo for starts
[F] Sometimes the only thing a western [Bb] savage understands
[Gbm] Are whiskey and rifles [Ab] and an unarmed man like [F] you
[Gb] [Db] So you [F] gotta kick off the fool
[Gb] [Db] [Ab] [F]
Don't let that fancy thing [Db] go
[F]
[Gb] And [Db] [Ab]
[F] the old piper pulled him close and said
You've come a long [Bb] way, I know
[Gb] You've got a longer [Ab] drive ahead
[G] Through [Fm] the bones [Bb] of the buffalo
[Ab] Through [Gb] the claims [Ab] of the western dead
[F] It's like the spokes [Bb] of a mule
[Gb] You'll spin round [Ab] with the brass
[F] You'll hear the [Bb] crumbs and the brush of steel
[Ab] And you'll hear the call of the west
[Fm] [Bb]
[Ab] [Gb] You'll hear the call of [Ab] the west, call of [F] the west
[Gb]
[Ab] [F] [Gb]
[Ab] [F] Harshly wicked by the sound [Db] of six rounds of light [Ab]-caliber rifle fire
[F] Followed minutes later by the booming [Gb] of nine rounds of a heavier rifle
[Ab] But you can't [F] close off the wilderness
Just then [Gbm] he heard the snick of a [Db] rifle bolt
And found [Bb] himself [F] staring down the muzzle of a drunken liquor store [Gb] owner from Atlanta
[Abm] [F]
There's a conflict, he said
[Gb] There's a conflict [Bb] in the land
People [G] have to go
They come all the way out [Gb] here
They buy [Eb]
some [F] [Gb] 11th and [Db] Gaston's
Buy a [Ab] condominium, maybe open [F] up their own plastic surgery [C] shop
Maybe go [F] like the Homosexual Decorators Party in Bel Air
Build a [Gb] table of vietnamese [Eb] decorators again
Maybe like [F] sit around in their own [Gb] rug factories
[Db] Open up chili [F] stands and sell candlelight books or work in a deli
[Gb] Maybe like get [Db] a piece of the rock or [F] a slice of pie
And spit out the [Gb] wood in your car and [Db] not have the wind blow it back [C] in your face
[F]
Up from the high [Fm] and dim road line to [Bb]
[Gb] some [Ab] hangman's tree
[Fm] The rest are claimed from [Bb] the prairie plains
[Eb] While they say [Gb] this was, it's [Ab] not, a glory
[Fm] Just like the spokes of [Bb] a wheel
[Db] [Gb] Cooked and brown with [Ab] the breast
[F] They shall hear [Fm] the groans and [Bb] the rustle of steel
[Db] But [Gb] I'll hear the call of [Ab] the West
Call of the [F] West
Ika Ha [Bb] Ho, Ka Ho Ha He
[Gb] I'll hear the call of [Ab] the West
Call of the [F] West
Ika Ha [Bb] Ho, Ka Ho Ha He
[Gb] I'll hear the call [Ab] of the West
Call of [F] the West
Ika Ha [Bb] Ho, Ka Ho Ha He
[Db] I'll hear the call [Ab] of the West
Call of [F] the West
Ika Ha [Bb] Ho, Ka Ho Ha [Gb] He
I'll hear the call [Ab] of the West
Call [F] of the West
Ika Ha Ho, Ka Ho Ha He
Ika Ha Ho
I am [Fm] the beast, young buddy!
[F] Do you hear me?
I am the beast, young buddy!
I went to Hollywood because I have a good reputation for the capital city
I don't want my doggy caught, I need a doggy to run around
I am the beast, young buddy!
[G]
Thanks a lot [Ab] everyone
[N]
