Long Haired Boy
By Rodney Henson
played in the style of Bob Dylan
[Verse 1]
C G Am
Long haired boy walkin' down a dusty road
F C G
Old guitar hangin' cross his back
C G Am
Twenty dollar bill and a baseball glove in a duffle bag
G C
Boy's got big plans
[Chorus 1]
F C
Livin' in a van, workin' for the man
F G
Singin' when he can, gonna make a stand
C G Am
Long hair, don't care, livin' on a prayer
F G C
Songs dancin' in his head
[Verse 2]
C G Am
Preacher man sittin' on the stand up high
F C G
Shiny black shoes tied to his feet
C G Am
Reads about love and teaches 'bout love but feels no love
G C
Regrets his life plan
[Chorus 2]
F C
Prayin' to the man, Preachin' for the man
F G
Sinkin' in the sand, gonna make stands
C G Am
No hair, don't care, livin' on a prayer
F G C
Songs dancin' in his head
[Verse 3]
C G Am
Southern Belle rockin' in an old arm chair
F C G
Ball of yarn sittin' in her lap
C G Am
Fell asleep when she was young then woke up old
G C
Never had a plan
[Chorus 3]
F C
Fell for the man, who held her hand
F G
Member of the klan, gonna make stand
C G Am
Grey hair, don't care, livin' on a prayer
F G C
Songs dancin' in her head
[Verse 4]
C G Am
Long haired boy ran into the preacher man
F C G
Sang a song that made him cry
C G Am
Southern Belle listened to the preachers words
G C
She could see his pain
[Chorus 4]
F C
She made a stand, embraced the man
F G
Held his hand, they made a plan
C G Am
Long hair, don't care, livin' on a prayer
F G C
Songs dancin' in their heads
C G Am
Long hair, don't care, livin' on a prayer
F G C
Songs dancin' in their heads
