INTRO: Asus2       

       A                               C     
Well, I used to drive a cab, you know        
C                                            
I heard a siren scream                       
D                                            
Pulled over to the corner                    
      C                  Asus2               
And I fell into a dream 

	  A                                  
There were two men eating pennies            
C                                            
And three young girls who cried              
D                                            
The West coast is falling,                   
C                         Asus2              
I see rocks in the sky. 

E7                                           
The preacher took his bible                  
And laid it on the stool.                    
	 D                                   
He said: with the congregation running,      
	   C                 Asus2 A Asus2 A 
Why should I play the fool? 

Well, I used to be a woman, you know         
C                                            
I took you for a ride,                       
D                                            
I let you fly my airplane                    
C                                A           
It looked good for your pride.               

'Cause you're the kind of man you know              
C                                                   
Who likes what he says.                             
D                                                   
I wonder what's it's like                           
	     C       A                              
To be so far over my head.

Well, the lady made the wedding                     
And she brought along the ring.                     
    D                 C                             
She got down on her knees                           
	  C                                Asus2 A7 
And said: Let's get on with this thing. 

Well, I used to be a folk singer                    
C                                                   
Keeping managers alive,                             
D                                                   
When you saw me on a corner                         
C                       A7                          
And told me I was jive. 

So I unlocked your mind, you know                   
C                                                   
To see what I could see.                            
D                                                   
If you guarantee the postage,                       
     C                        A7                    
I'll mail you back the key.                         
       E7                                   
Well I woke up in the morning               
With an arrow through my nose               
	     D             Dsus4            
There was an Indian in the corner           
C                      Asus2  Em  Asus2  Em 
Tryin' on my clothes. 

	A                                   
Well, I used to be asleep you know          
C                                           
With blankets on my bed.                    
D                                           
I stayed there for a while                  
	  C                       Asus2  A  
'Til they discovered I was dead. 

The coroner was friendly                    
C                                           
And I liked him quite a lot.                
D                                           
If I hadn't 've been a woman                
	    C                       Asus2   
I guess I'd never have been caught.         
    E7                                      
They gave me back my house and car          
			    Asus2  A        
And nothing more was said.                  

Well, I was driving down the freeway         
	C                                    
When my car ran out of gas.                  
D                                            
Pulled over to the station                   
      C                   A                  
But I was afraid to ask. 

The servicemen were yellow                   
	C                                    
And the gasoline was green.                  
D                                            
Although I knew I couldn't                   
	       C           A                 
I thought that I was gonna scream. 

	       E7                            
That was on my last trip to Tulsa            
Just before the snow.                        
       D           Dsus4                     
If you ever need a ride there,               
       C                 Asus2  Em x4  Asus2 
Be sure to let me know. 

      A                                      
I was chopping down a palm tree              
C                                            
When a friend dropped by to ask              
D                                            
If I would feel less lonely                  
      C                         Asus2        
If he helped me swing the axe.               
	A                            C 

I said: No, it's not a case of being lonely                      
We have here,

I've been working on this palm tree

I said: No, it's not a case of being lonely                       
We have here,

I've been working on this palm tree

He said: Go get lost!                                             
And walked towards his Cadillac.                                  
D                  Dsus4                                          
I chopped down the palm tree                                      
C                                                                 
And it landed on his back.
