Hey everyone. This is my first attempt at a tab, so, gather what you will from that.
is a great song and it's a shame that you cannot find this tab anywhere. So here goes.
free to update this as there are probably some things missing. I don't know if these
the right chord voicings, but they sound ok, at least when you are playing on your own.
This is in 3/4

F 320033
Am X24432

|F |Am |F |Am This.... Kid.... Hung on me too |Dm |F | So I had to hide in a |F |Am |F |Am Church...Just me..........and the town..mayor |Dm |F | and his son who was handi- |F |Am |Am |Am | capped who wouldn't be quiet... unless |Dm |Dm/F |F |F | his dad would sing him a.....song |F |Am |Am |Am | So yea...

He repeats the last 8 measures a few times and ends on G with "The troops rush in."
There you go. When I play it alone on guitar I substitute a D/F# for the Gmaj7...It
sounds better...he might actually play something different at that part, it's hard to tell
the organ over it.
Anyways, enjoy!
