Just someone his mother might know

  In the back of an alley

  While little Dirt Cowboys,  turned brown in their saddles
C G/B Am G  D       Dsus4  C/E    D/F#
Sweet chocolate biscuits. And red rosy apples in summer

  The honey the hive could be holding

For there's weak winged young sparrows,   that starve in the winter
C                Cm
  Broken young children on the  wheels of the winners
G                   Bb     C     G
  And the sixty-eight summer festival wallflowers  are thinning

  Too hot for the band, with a desperate desire for change
G           C
  We've thrown in the towel too many times
G       C
  Out for the count and when we're down
G       C       G      C
  Captain Fantastic and the  Brown Dirt Cowboy

From the  end of the world to your town

Verse:
Am               C
  And all this talk of Jesus,  coming back to see us
C  G/B  Am   G   D
Mmm, mmmmm, couldn't fool us
Dsus4              C/E           D/F#
  For we were spinning out our lines, walking on the wire
Am          G/B       Dm7
  Hand in hand went music and the rhyme
  G        C           Cm
The Captain and the Kid, stepping in the ring
G               Bb      C         G
  From here on sonny, sonny, sonny, it's a long and lonely climb

Double Chorus:
