Am G6
Took a big trip, With your old band
C Cm7
To your homeland, For the wrong man
Am G6
Making big plans, For your own sake
C Cm7
Hope they don’t bend, Hope they don’t break
Repeat chord pattern:
(ba ba ba...)
Took a tip from a rodeo show
Get a grip or you’re gonna get thrown
Take your aim when you take a shot
For the man under you will take everything you got
Take the pills that they give you mornings
Spit them out when they aren’t looking
Keep a smile but you burn it hot
It’s a mad, mad, world
Am G C Cm7
Na na na na na na (X4)
Take the pills that they give you mornings
Spit them out when they aren’t looking
Fix a smile but you burn it hot
It’s a mad, mad, world
The chord change from C to Cm7 can always be dropped, and I like to substitute G
for G6 during the Instrumental parts.
