Chords

[Intro] A [Verse]
A                                  D
Strolling down the highway with my shoes in my hand

  E                        A
I don't talk much I'm a quiet man

A                  D
Beauty and silence both run deep

        E                        A
And I'm running like crazy while you are asleep
[Chorus]
        G                  A
You got news for me, I got nothing for you

               G
Don't pin your blues on me

         A                D            E    E
Just go ahead and do whatever you wish to
[Verse]
     A              D
Last Monday night I saw a fight

        E                           A
Between Wednesday and Thursday over Saturday night

A                         D
Tuesday asked me what was going on

         E                          A
I said, "Sunday's in the meadow and Friday's in the corn"
[Chorus]
        G                  A
You got news for me, I got nothing for you

               G
Don't pin your blues on me

         A                D            E    E
Just go ahead and do whatever you wish to
[Verse]
A            D
Hocus-pocus, maladjusted

E                     A
Don't you think my tears get rusted

A                   D
Steady losing means you ain't using

     E                    A
What you really think is right
[Chorus]
        G                  A
You got news for me, I got nothing for you

               G
Don't pin your blues on me

         A                D            E    E
Just go ahead and do whatever you wish to
[Verse]
A                      D
Oodles of light what a beautiful sight

E                          A
Both of God's eyes are shining tonight

A                   D
Rays and beams of incredible dreams

    E            A
And I am a quiet man
[Verse]
A                      D
Oodles of light what a beautiful sight

E                          A
Both of God's eyes are shining tonight

A                   D
Rays and beams of incredible dreams

    E            A
And I am a quiet man
[Verse]
A                      D
Oodles of light what a beautiful sight

E                          A
Both of God's eyes are shining tonight

A                   D
Rays and beams of incredible dreams

    E            A
And I am a quiet man
