Uneasy Rider Lyrics Chords

[G] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ I was taking a trip out to L.A. I was [F] kind of tooting along in my Chevrolet.
I was [G] listening
to G.
Gordon Liddy [C] on the radio. _
_ Just as I crossed that Mississippi [F] line, I heard that
highway start [C] to whine.
[G] I knew that left rear tire [C] was about to go. _
_ The spare was flat.
I got up tight [F] because there wasn't a family station in sight, so [G] I just let it come down
my shoulder [C] on the rear. _ _
I went as far as I could, and when I stopped the car, [F] it was
right in front of this little bar, kind of [G] a redneck looking joint called the Dew [C] Drop
Inn.
_ Stuffed all my hair up under my hat, [F] went in and told the bartender I'd had a flat
and [G] he'd be kind enough to give me [C] change for a one.
[Cm] _ [C] There was one thing I sure was
proud to see.
There [F] wasn't a soul in the place except for him and me, and [G] he just looked
disgusted and pointed [C] toward a telephone. _
_ I called up the station down the road away
and [F] said, well, we ain't very busy [C] today, and we [G] can have somebody there in just about
ten [C] minutes or so.
He said, nah, you just stay right where you're at.
I [F] didn't even
bother to tell the darn fool that [G] I sure as hell didn't have any place else to [C] go. _
_ [A#] _ [A] _ _ I [D] just
ordered up a beer and sitting out in the bar [G] and some guy walked in and said, who owns
[E] that car [A] with the gun rack and the mag [D] wheels and four on the floor?
_ Well, he looked at
me and I dang near [G] died.
I decided I'd just wait outside, so [A] I laid a fiber on the bar
and I headed for the [D] door.
_ Just when I thought I was going to get out of there with my skin,
[G] these five big dudes come strolling in with [A] just one old drunk chick and some fellow with
[D] green teeth.
_ I was almost at the door when the biggest one said, [G] you tip your hat to
this lady, son, and [A] when I did, all that hair fell out from [D] underneath.
_ _ The last thing I
wanted was to get in a fight, [G] Jackson, Mississippi, on a Saturday night, [A] especially when there
was six of them and only [D] one of me.
_ _ They all started laughing.
I got feeling sick.
[G] I knew I'd better think of something pretty quick, so I [A] just hauled off and kicked old
green teeth [D] right in the knee.
_ _ He let out a yell that occurred to your hair, [G] but before
he could move, I grabbed me a chair and [A] said, watching folks, he's a thoroughly [D] dangerous
man.
_ _ Now y'all may not know it, but this man's a spy.
[G] He's an undercover agent for the FBI.
[A] He's been sent down here to infiltrate the Ku [D] Klux Klan.
_ He was still a bit over holding
on to his knee, [G] but everybody else was looking and listening to me, and [A] I just laid it on
thicker and heavier as [D] I went.
_ I said, would you believe this man has gone as far [G] as tearing
Hannity stickers off the bumpers of cars, [A] and he voted for Alan Combs for [D] president.
_ He's a friend of them long-haired hippotypec old [G] fags.
I bet you he's even got a commie
[A] flag tacked up on the wall inside of his [D] garage.
_ This man's a snake in the grass.
I can tell
you [G] guys, he may look dumb, but that's just a disguise.
[A] He's a mastermind in the ways
of [D] espionage.
_ _ They all started looking real suspicious of him.
[G] He jumped up and said,
now just wait a minute, [A] Jim.
You know he's alive.
I've been living here all [D] of my life.
_ Well, I'm a faithful follower of Brother John Birch, [G] and I belong to the Antioch Baptist
Church, [A] and I ain't even got a garage.
You can call home and ask [D] my wife.
_ And then he
started saying something about the way I was [G] dressed, but I didn't stay around to hear
the rest because [A] I was too busy moving and hoping I didn't run [D] out of luck.
_ _ When I hit
the ground, I was making tracks, [G] and they were just taking my car down off the jacks.
[A] I threw the man a 50, jumped in, fired [D] that booger up.
_ Old Dale Earnhardt would have sure
been [G] proud of the way I was moving when I passed that [A] crowd coming out that door and
headed toward me [D] in a trot.
_ Well, I knew I should have gone ahead and run, but [G] somehow
I just couldn't resist the fun [A] of chasing them all just once around the [D] parking lot.
_ _ They headed for the cars, and I hit the [G] gas and spun around and headed them off at the
pass.
[A] I was slinging gravel and putting a ton of dust [D] in the air.
_ _ I had them all out
there stepping and fetching [G] like their heads were on fire and their rear ends was catching,
[A] but I figured I better go ahead and split before the [D] cops got there.
_ _ [B] _ _
_ [E] When I hit that
road, I was really wheeling, [A] had gravel flying, rubber squealing.
[B] Didn't slow down until I
was almost to [E] Arkansas. _
_ Well, I think I'm going to rewrite my trip.
[A] I wonder if everybody
thinks I'd flip [B] if I went to L.A. by [E] Omaha. _
