The Felice Brothers – The Kid (Guitar)

G
Well, he walked into town

               C
He shot Johnny down

G                  D
Then he sat on the green

        G
He was back from the war

                 C
His brain was on fire

      G             D           G
And he lived in the darkness of dreams

       C         D
Heaven knows the kid

        G              C          G
And the things that he did   were wrong

              D
But who is to blame?

        C        D
It's as much his crime

      G            C
As it is yours and mine

        G            D
Shine a light on the dark

   C   Cmaj/B  Am   G      C
Of Ghost Town, New York

G
We would sit by the tracks

                 C
Playing dice and jacks

        G                      D
When he lived at the Red Motor Inn

          G
And when his mother OD'd

                  C
He was just a bad seed

       G          D            G
And not one of us here took him in

       C         D
Heaven knows the kid

        G              C          G
And the things that he did   were wrong

              D
But who is to blame?

        C        D
It's as much his crime

      G            C
As it is yours and mine

        G            D
Shine a light on the dark

   C   Cmaj/B  Am   G      C
Of Ghost Town, New York

      G
It's a left at the fork

             C
To Cairo, New York

          G                      D
And that's where I'm stranded in sorrow

   G
But how can I go

                   C
The fields deep in snow

      G      D         G
And no buses run 'til tomorrow

       C         D
Heaven knows the kid

        G              C          G
And the things that he did   were wrong

              D
But who is to blame?

        C        D
It's as much his crime

      G            C
As it is yours and mine

        G            D
Shine a light on the dark

   C   Cmaj/B  Am   G      C
Of Ghost Town, New York

       C         D
Heaven knows the kid

        G              C          G
And the things that he did   were wrong

              D
But who is to blame?

        C        D
It's as much his crime

      G            C
As it is yours and mine

        G            D
Shine a light on the dark
