One Black Sheep Mat Kearney
Capo 5
[C]I was born a love child of the '70s
[C]Touched down at Sacred Heart
[C]Three boys in a treehouse family
[G]Saw the lights from the reservoir
[C]Mamma told me angels are watching us
[C]In a green Volkswagen van
[C]In the cities of hippies and angels
Just [G]singing along to a Amy Grant
[Pre CBORUS]
There was [F]money in my [C]pocket [F]Shoes on my [C]feet
[F]But I always [C]felt like the [G]one black sheep
There was [F]food on the [C]table, [F]a place to [C]sleep
[F]But there's no [C]rest for the [G]one black sheep
[CBORUS]
Singing
[C]Ooh ooh ooh, ay
[C]Ooh ooh ooh, ay
[F]Won't somebody [C]tell me
What's [G]wrong with me?
[REPEAT CBORUS]
[VERSE 2]
[C]Packed up in Eugene, Oregon
[C]Amtrak wearin' soccer cleats
[C]Headed south to California
[G]Conference player of the week
[C]But at night I dreamed of Graceland
[C]Stealing my friend Kyle's guitar
[C]On the racquetball courts playing
[G]Songs for homeless broken hearts
[Pre CBORUS 2]
There was [F]money in my [C]pocket
[F]Shoes on my [C]feet
[F]But I always [C]felt like the [G]one black sheep
[F]Got a good educ[C]ation
[F]On Hobart S[C]treet
[F]But there's no [C]books on the [G]one black sheep
[REPEAT CBORUS] x2
[VERSE 3]
[C]Two dropouts headed eastbound
[C]Chevy truck with no A/C
[C]Star light, Fort Kearney Campground
[G]Said why not Tennessee?
[C]Got fire in my bones, boy
[C]Got words to say
[C]Lord knows I'm not home
But I'm [G]on my way with
[Pre CBORUS 3]
[F]Money in my [C]pocket
[F]Shoes on my [C]feet
[F]But I still [C]feel like the [G]one black sheep
Got these [F]3 guitar [C]chords
[F]And the road under my [C]feet
[F]But there's no [C]place for the [G]one black sheep
[Repeat CBORUS] x 2
[F]'Cause there's no [C]rest for the [G]one black [C]sheep
