[G] [/] [/] [C] [/] [/] [D] [/] [G] [/] [/] [C] [/] [/] [D] [/]  
Met myself a [D]common [C] county welfare [G]line
I was a-feelin' [C]strung out, [G]hung out on the [D]line
[G]Saw myself a-[D]goin' [Em] down to the war in [C]June
[G]All I want, [D]all I want is to [C]write myself a [G]tune
CHORUS:
[C] Wrote a song for[G] everyone
[C] Wrote a song for [G]truth
[C] Wrote a song for [G]everyone[Em]--
When I [C]couldn't even [D7]talk to [G]you
Verse 2:
Got myself arrested, wound me up in jail
Richmond 'bout to blow up, communication fails
If you see the answer, now's the time to say
All I want, all I want is to get you down to pray
(chorus)
(instrumental, same pattern as verses)
(chorus)
Verse 3:
Saw the people standin' a thousand years in chains
Somebody said it's a-different now; look, it's just the same
Pharaohs spin the message round and round the truth
They could have saved a million people, how can I tell you?
(repeat chorus 3 times; third time, with extra measure and instrumental
break, sing "cou-ou-ou-ou-ouldn't")
