Verse 1:

FF                G+G
  Well, I've been looking back

FF       G+G
  At the old ways

FF       G+G
  Over my shoulders

FF    G+G  FF   G+G
  Like salt  or  sugar

FF                 G+G
 Well, I'm just talking about the old days

FF  G+G     FF  G+G    FF  G+G
  Groundwork for footwork

FF                       G+G
  Well, after this next song we'll be moving along

FF       G+G  FF  G+G
 Out of this vein

FF                     C majorC
  It's called "The Ballad of the Hulk"


Bridge:

FF             G+G
 You know I used to share a tailor

FF         G+G
  With David Bruce Banner

FF         G+G
  That's the Hulk

A minorAm          D MajorD
Traveling jackets and traveling bags

    F#min G+G
Future rags

A minorAm       D MajorD      G+G
 And shoes good for walking highways

A minorAm       D MajorD     G+G
 But never quite far enough away

      FF    A minorAm G+G     D MajorD
To see how good and easy it could be

  FF        A minorAm
If I just got angry

   FF        A minorAm
But I never got angry

        D MajorD
Maybe I should have

      FF           D MajorD
I could have cleared some things away

    FF       C majorC
In those old Bill Bixby days

Verse 2:

C majorC
 A augmentedA master of reiki

E MajorE
  Waved his hands over me

     FF          G+G
And said I eat too much steak

                C majorC
And hold on too long to ancient aches

      G+G
And both are so hard

 C majorC
On my heart

   E MajorE         FF
Oh, I try to be a good person

 E MajorE   FF
I wonder if it's annoying

      FF
Or worth pursuing

    F minorFm
And pursuing

    FF
And pursuing

  D MajorD
Down highways

       D MajorD
At the risk of the road
