Intro with notes A G F#  D C# D  A G F E D C D 
 
 
Well the picture is fuzzy and the details are sordid. 
It was on the same day "God's Own Drunk" was recorded. 
A walkin' tall sheriff and big cadillac,  
And me in my golf shoes on the hood makin' tracks, 
This darin' young singer was under attack.

Well the things That I've lived and I've dreamed and I've seen, and I've heard 
F                                                             D
