Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
C majorC
Got my irons in the fire down in Texas
C majorC         C7C7   G+G
Got a toe hold in Tennessee
    FF      G+G      C majorC     A minorAm
Got my foot in the door of that California Store
     C majorC    G+G    C majorC
Now I'm up to my ears in me

Chorus:
C majorC      FF               C majorC
Don't be concerned if the song sounds familiar
C majorC      FF              G+G
Don't be concerned if it all seems the same
      FF               C majorC
Just be concerned that your policies will kill you
   C majorC     G+G     C majorC
It's all just public domain

Verse 2:
C majorC
I took a bite of the Big Apple
C majorC           C7C7     G+G
And I dabbled in that forbidden fruit
     FF      G+G
No they promised me points
      C majorC        A minorAm
And they slipped me skinny joints
     C majorC   G+G     A minorAm
And I've yet to see me any loot
      C majorC      G+G         C majorC
From that man in the high-heeled Gucci shoes

Chorus:
C majorC      FF               C majorC
Don't be concerned if the song sounds familiar
C majorC      FF              G+G
Don't be concerned if it all seems the same
      FF               C majorC
Just be concerned that your policies will kill you
   C majorC     G+G     C majorC
It's all just public domain

I sang in the Red River Valley
 D MajorD          D7D7       A augmentedA
I've drank with the whores in Santa Fe
     D MajorD      D7D7       G+G
Yeah, I ran with the snuff queens in Dallas
     D MajorD      A augmentedA     B minorBm
Like I ran from Snow White in L. A.
     D MajorD       A augmentedA      D MajorD
Now I've broken all my vows to Demolay
