Capo 5
Am
He walked to many highways, Jumped to many trains
C
He hooked to many walleye, He always knew the way
G
He swam too many oceans, Saved too many lives
F
He always told the truth, He could always spot the lie
Am
He made too many dollars, His words were always making sense
C
But he dreamed the biggest dreams, He leapt the highest fence
G
And He wrote too many songs, Read too many books
F
And he loved too many woman, Stole too many looks
C G
And the morning light, was exposed
F
At bus stop. Confusion's got him cornered
C G F
Waitin to be saved by the revolution
Am C G D-G Am
but all that comes is the 62 Richmond
Am
And he danced all night on Friday, He put back 50 shots
C
but he never felt that he whisky, His mind held the clearest thoughts
G
He new best place for breakfast, Where to find the cheapest lunch
F
He could make a picture perfect pancake, He could brew a perfect punch
Am
He wasn't much of boxer, But her never lost a fight
C
He was stronger than a horse, Faster than the light
G
He knew all the best cities, Places to steer clear

And the morning light, was exposed

At bus stop. Confusion's got him cornered

Waitin to be saved by the revolution

He could run for 30 hours, He could hold his breath for days
C
He build a house right out of chipboard, That would never waste away

And he fought in every great war, But he never lost his pride
F
He did what he had to do, Just to keep up his stride
Am
He gave away his life's savings, but he'd save his best for last
C
He knew the right time to make a move, Just when he should pass
G
He had the wildest sense of humour, And his laugh would hit the sky
F
He could smell how you where feeling, Be a friend til the day you died

At bus stop. Confusion's got him cornered

Waitin to be saved by the revolution
