CHICKENMAN (Amy Ray) --------------------
[Tuning: DADGBD] [Each chord is one measure.] [I mostly got these chords from the songbook, but I'm not sure they're right. The songbook had some blatant errors, so I can't really trust it.]
I was on the road to Austin, I met a man on the highway He sold me junk and conversation, he was wise and dirty from the weather
I said, "darkness into darkness, all the carnage of my journeys Makes it harder to be living;" he said, "it's a long road to be forgiven"
Csus9 GD5D5 And it's one more life for the taker, Chickenman, hold my hand Csus9 GD5D5D5 [stop] One more song for the maker (Chickenman, Chickenman, hold my hand)
I am an only child born of the wild Riddled to spend my time defending my land You are the only one born in the sun Riddled to spend your time defending my plan
