 Cadd9           Am
Grandpa, here's your coffee,
🎸
Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -
 Cadd9              Am
Said Edith, as she filled his cup.

 Cadd9          Am
Nobody'll find you here,

 G7sus4              Cadd2
And Earl is glad you guys showed up.


 Cadd9          Am
The way things are downtown,

 Cadd9              Am
You might have to stay for a while,

 Cadd9                   Am
There was a helicopter hovering over your house

 G7sus4                Cadd2
When I talked to your neighbor Kyle.


 Cadd9                 Am
Who the hell do they think they are,

 Cadd9            Am
Invading our home like that?

 Cadd9                Am
Grandma and I had to leave so fast,

 G7sus4              Cadd2
We couldn't even catch the cat.


 Cadd9                  Am
The helicopter scared the shit out of him,

 Cadd9             Am
And it took off down the trail,

 Cadd9            Am
Down past the railroad track,

 G7sus4          Cadd2
Towards the county jail.


BRIDGE 1:
Cadd9 / Am (x3)
G7sus4 / Cadd2


 Cadd9              Am
Jed, you really screwed up now!

 Cadd9               Am
What did you have to do that for?

 Cadd9               Am
Everybody wants to hang your ass,

 G7sus4            Cadd2
And here's a note from Lenore.


 Cadd9           Am
Sun touched the cold steel bars

 Cadd9             Am
As she pushed the paper in.

 Cadd9             Am
Jed took it up and read it

 G7sus4            Cadd2
And he couldn't hide a grin.


 Cadd9         Am
Outside the jail window

 Cadd9          Am
A crow flew across the sky,

 Cadd9                Am
Completely disappearing behind each bar,

 G7sus4            Cadd2
Then a helicopter flew by.


 Cadd9             Am
Say hi to Earl and Edith.

 Cadd9             Am
Tell 'em I'm doing fine.

 Cadd9             Am
Tell 'em you're ready to leave home now,

 G7sus4           Cadd2
They should cut the line.


 Cadd9             Am
Can Grandma come and see me?

 Cadd9           Am
I got a new song to sing

 Cadd9                 Am
It's longer than all the others combined

 G7sus4            Cadd2
And it doesn't mean a thing.


BRIDGE 2: (x2)
Cadd9 / Am
G7sus4 / Cadd2


 Cadd9         Am
The noise was unfamiliar,

 Cadd9         Am
Walkie-talkies squelled,

 Cadd9         Am
Generators were running,

 G7sus4          Cadd2
Vans parked in the field.


 Cadd9         Am
TV crews and cameras,

 Cadd9                 Am
They wanted to interview Grandpa on the porch.

 Cadd9                  Am
They came through the gate and up on the lawn

 G7sus4            Cadd2
Knocking down Edith's Tiki Torch.


 Cadd9           Am
And Grandpa saw them there,

 Cadd9             Am
Looking through the venetian blind.

 Cadd9               Am
Those people don't have any respect,

 G7sus4             Cadd2
So they won't get any of mine.


 Cadd9             Am
I ain't wanna talk about Jed.

 Cadd9                 Am
I don't watch channel 2 or 6 or 9.

 Cadd9                Am
I don't have time to talk that fast,

 G7sus4         Cadd2
And it ain't my crime.


 Cadd9              Am
It ain't an honor to be on TV

 Cadd9            Am
And it ain't a duty either.

 Cadd9              Am
The only good thing about TV

 G7sus4              Cadd2
Is shows like 'Leave it to Beaver'.


 Cadd9           Am
Shows with love and affection,

 Cadd9          Am
Like Mama used to say.

 Cadd9          Am
A little Mayberry living

 G7sus4         Cadd2
Could go a long way.


 Cadd9                 Am
He took Earl's gun down from the closet,

 Cadd9            Am
Loaded up both barrels.

 Cadd9                 Am
Went out on the porch and fired 'em off,

 G7sus4               Cadd2
And up walked a woman named Carol.


 Cadd9            Am
Susan Carol from Early Magazine,

 Cadd9             Am
I got some questions to ask.

 Cadd9                   Am
Well you can stick 'em where the sun don't shine!

 G7sus4           Cadd2
Grandpa said with a gasp.


 Cadd9                   Am
Then he fell face first and let out a sigh,

 Cadd9          Am
Edith came out in shock.

 Cadd9                     Am
Grandpa was whispering to her from down on the floor,

 G7sus4                 Cadd2
He looked like he was trying to talk.


 Cadd9           Am
That guy just keeps singin'!

 Cadd9            Am
Can somebody shut him up?

 Cadd9              Am
I don't know for the life of me

 G7sus4               Cadd2
Where he comes up with this stuff.


BRIDGE 3: (x3)
Cadd9 / Am
G7sus4 / Cadd2

 Cadd9             Am
They laid his head on a newspaper

 Cadd9                   Am
With a picture of Carmichael on the front page,

 Cadd9                Am
Posing with the little league baseball team,

 G7sus4               Cadd2
And a seedy shot of Jed with a motorcycle.


 Cadd9           Am
Grandpa died like a hero,

 Cadd9             Am
Fighting for freedom of silence,

 Cadd9          Am
Trying to stop the media,

 G7sus4         Cadd2
Trying to be anonymous.


BRIDGE 4: (x2)
Cadd9 / Am
G7sus4 / Cadd2

SOLO

 Cadd9            Am
Share your loving and you live so long

 Cadd9            Am
Share your loving and you live so long

 Cadd9            Am
Share your loving and you live so long

 G7sus4            Cadd2
Live so long
