Gene Clark, born Harold Eugene Clark (born Tipton, Missouri, November 17, 1944[1] - May 24, 1991) was an American singer-songwriter, and one of the founding members of the folk-rock group The Byrds.
Gene Clark is best remembered for being The Byrds main songwriter between 1964 and 1966. He created a large catalogue of music in several genres but failed to achieve solo commercial success. Clark was one of the earliest exponents of psychedelic rock, baroque pop, newgrass, country rock and alternative country.

EBE Well I saw it clear today that we were all more than only refugees B And the heads of state called out all of their reserves E So they could postpone World War III C#mB I can hear the morning crier yellin read all about it here's the truth F#mABE You are either just the newspaper boy or you're either Babe Ruth EB Now how could we have been put upon this planet E Fools enough to think that we could be BE The first to form a civilized envolvement from the charismatic sea C#m There's a ten year old in the alley B Throws a hard ball off the wall that is the truth F#mABE He knows you're either just the newspaper boy or you're either Babe Ruth
The home run king
SOLO
B We can all dream up some explicit rationalized dream E Of exactly who we are B While the rockin rolling home run king E Keeps the black madonna sleepin with a star C#m Now it doesn't matter how much bread you can spend B So you can hold the center booth F#mABE You are either just the newspaper boy or you're either Babe Ruth
