Met myself a common county welfare line
C G DI was a-feelin' strung out, hung out on the line
Saw myself a-goin' down to the war in June
G D C GAll I want, all I want is to write myself a tune
CHORUS
Wrote a song for everyone
C GWrote a song for truth
C G EmWrote a song for everyone--
When I couldn't even talk to you
Verse 2:
Got myself arrested, wound me up in jail
Richmond 'bout to blow up, communication fails
If you see the answer, now's the time to say
All I want, all I want is to get you down to pray
(instrumental, same pattern as verses)
(chorus)
Verse 3:
Saw the people standin' a thousand years in chains
Somebody said it's a-different now; look, it's just the same
Pharaohs spin the message round and round the truth
They could have saved a million people, how can I tell you?
(repeat chorus 3 times; third time, with extra measure and instrumental
break, sing "cou-ou-ou-ou-ouldn't")
(you)
G / / C / / D / G
(Drummers: at single, final strum of G, tap cymbals and fade)
