Intro

D G Bm A G D

In a thoDusand empty bottles G

in a hundred burned out cars

In a hBmouse up in the CatsAkills… in all the hoGnky-tonks and bDars

All the wDay across the airwaves, and all the wGay around this land

The gBmhost of Richard MaAnuel isG… walking like a natural mDan G Bm A G

Well last niDght around the campfire… we got hGigh on homemade wine

We paBmssed around the guiAtar… and tried to sGing “Whispering PiDnes”

And in evDery sweet falsetto… that was mGore than I could stand

Was the gBmhost of Richard MaAnuel justG… walking like a natural mDan G Bm A G

Along the kDeys of my piano… in the kGick and in the snare

In getBmting your kicks off ofA parlor tricks… and in aG hound dog’s hungry stDare

Well He’s getting frDozen up in Canada, and buGrned in the south land

But the Bmghost of RichardA Manuel stGill… walking like a naturaDl mGan Bm A G

Short Break: D G Bm A G

There’s a rDoom full of nicotine poets... three harGmony guitars

And a shoBmpworn tack piAano… with 3G2 baDrs

And the VictDrola’s in the corner… spinning “AlexGander’s Ragtime Band”

And the gBmhost of Richard MaAnuel is…G walking like a natural mDan

Hey, Hey RicGhard… Hey, Hey RiBmchardA

RicGhard won’t you sing us… “Tears of RAage” just oGne more tiDme

D G Bm A G
