[INTRO] Em Am Em
Em Am Em I lost you a while ago, But still I don't know why Em Am Em I can't say your name, Without a crow flying by C Bm E Got to watch my back, Now that you've turned me around Am Em Got me walking backwards, Into my home-town G C G C Throw me a rope, On the rolling tide Am C/B C Am C/B C What did you want me to be, You said it's him or me Am C G D C The way you made it, That's the way it will be Em Am Em It was seven years on the Burma shore, With gatling guns and pain Em Am Em Working the lowlands door-to-door, Like a latter day saint C Bm E Then you turn me out, At the top of the stairs Am Em You took all the glory, That you just couldn't share Em Am Em I've never been so disabused, I've never been so mad Em Am Em I've never been served anything, That tasted so bad C Bm E You might need a friend, Any day now any day Am Em Oh my brother be careful, You are driftin' away G C G C Throw me a rope, On the rolling tide Am C/B C Am C/B C What did you want me to be, You said it's him or me Am C G D C The way you made it, That's the way it will be Am C/B C N.C. Em Am Em The way you made it, That's the way it will be
