E* w/riff 3X

E*
On the freeway in the county, the sun don't shine

E*
I feel, I feel, I feel, I feel a bati man

E*                               E*riff
Outside my cell, deputies creep

E*                              A*
and in this cell, all I do is sleep

A*                        A*riff
and I dream that I'm free

  <                        >      E*
and I'm back on the reef where I throw my net out into the sea

   <C7                       B             >
and all the fine heinas come swimmin' to me

    A*
they hold me and they promise me things

           C7*                            <      >
and when the tides high I cry like a little baby

                C*
don't give me no right kinda love

< > on Sunday mornin'

B*                 <    >
don't want no puppy lovin'

A*            <    >    A*riff
hungry babe, the new style

E*            <    >    E*riff
hungry babe, the new stylee

A*                        A*riff
And a angry dog is a hungry dog

    <A
and a hungry dog is angry dog
