No Good Al Joad

E
Put that chicken in your yard
           B
Out of it's misery
    E
Its feathers torn apart, no
 B
Rooster can be more
 G#m
Ruthless than you; More
 F#
Stupid than me

I found your
E
Angel in the crow's nest
                 B
It's a god-awful mess up here
She's clawed through the floor
  E
Nobody seems to stick around
         B
How much more can you take?

G#m
Old men fire from their windows
F#
Warning shots over your head
          G#m
And your dearest friends
Are all coming around with their
 F#
Tails between their legs
         A
But your engine is
Still running, although
     C#m                   G#m
The gears are covered with grime
    E                 F#
Everybody is a little hard to love
    B     E
Sometimes

(E)
You are my favorite
                          B
Because you're a long shot
E
You are my enemy
        B
Because you forgot

         E                         F#
Generous people, they fill me with doubt
                     B                   G#m
But that's something I'd rather not talk about
       E                   F#
And no heavy charge can make me stay
      B                  G#m
I'm a no-good Al Joad, anyway
E                                 F#
I'll never lie in the back of no truck
           A
So if you want a whole lot, but
Without getting caught
 C#m                       G#m
Babe, you better go get in line
     E                F#
Everybody is a little hard
            B      E
To love sometimes

                       E
The first person I realized was dying
F#                       B
Thanked everyone for the cake, soft and low
    G#m                    E            F#     B
Now I can tell, the ground barely feels my footsteps
     G#m
As I must go
