"RENEGADE" Track 4 from the Steppenwolf 7 Album [Verse]
A             G
My birthplace would be hard to find

F                   Bb
it changed so many times

        C            D
I'm not sure where it belongs

A                                  G
But they tell me the Baltic coast is full of amber

F                Bb
And the land was green

   C       D
Before the tanks came

A                  G
One day I learned just how it used to be

    F                         Bb          C       D
The devils' curse brought the whole world to it's knees
[Chorus]
            E        B         E
And it was "Hey you, keep your head down

 B        E            B          E
Don't you look around, please don't make a sound

G#              A                 G#                E
If they should find you now, The Man will shoot you down"
[Verse]
 A                     G           F
It's a mighty long way out of the darkness

             Bb     C       D
To where the sun is free to shine

          A                           G
Well, The truck came by and pulled us in the back

     F                 Bb      C               D
And left us where the railroad tracks cross the line

        A            G
and the border guide took us by the hand

      F                              Bb       C     D
And led us through the hole into the promised land beyond
[Bridge]
     E                 D
And I can hear him now Whispering soft and low

  E                              D
"When you get to the other side, just you run like hell"
[Double Chorus]
E        B         E
Hey you, keep your head down

B          E           B            E
Don't you look around, please don't make a sound

G#              A                 G#                  B
If they should find you now, The Man WOULD shoot you down"

E         B         E
"Hey you, keep your head down

B         E            B            E
Don't you look around, please don't make a sound

G#              A                 G#                  E
If they should find you now, The Man WILL shoot you down"
[Verse]
A                   G
I thought I Found a quiet place

 F                         C                  D
Where I could learn how to catch my childhood dreams

           A                         G
But on my left and to my right they keep on shouting

  F             Bb        C     D
While I'm just stuck here in between

          A                      G
Lord! I'm tired of running and I don't believe I can

 F                      Bb       C      D
I can hear them calling time and time again
[Chorus]
            E        B         E
And it's "Hey you, keep your head down

 B        E            B          E
Don't you look around, please don't make a sound

G#              A                 G#                E
If they should find you now, The Man will shoot you down"
