My Friend George

E                         C
Read in the paper 'bout a man killed with a sword
D                      G
And that made my think of my friend George
E                       C
People said the man was five foot six
D                        G
Sounds like George with his killing stick

F          C
Hey bro, what's the word
E             Am
Talkin' 'bout my friend George
F         C
Hey bro, what's the word
E             F
Talkin' 'bout my friend George
N.C.
You talkin' 'bout my friend George

E               C
I knew George since he's eight
D                 G
I always thought that he was great
E                  C
And anything that George would do
D                  G
You know that I would do it too
E                   C
George liked music and George liked to fight
D                            G
He worked out in a downtown gym every night
E                    C
I'd spar with him when work was done
      D               G
We split lips but it was all in fun

F         C
Hey bro, what's the word
E                 Am
You talkin' 'bout my friend George
F          C
Hey bro, what's the word
E              F
Talkin' 'bout my friend George
N.C.
Talkin' 'bout my friend George

E                    C
Next thing I hear George's got this stick
D                   G
He's using it for more than kicks
E                     C
I seen him down at Smalley's bar
        D                G
He was wired up, I tried to calm him down
E                  C
"Avenge yourself" he says to me
D                 G
"Avenge yourself for humanity
E                    C
Avenge yourself for the weak and the poor
D                       G
Stick it to these guys right through their heads"
           E                           C
know, the fight is my music, and the stick is my sword
         D                        G
And you know that I love you, so please don't say a word
           E                         C
Can't you hear the music playing, the anthem, it's my call
         D
And the last I seen of Georgey was him
 G
Running through the door, I says -

F         C
