The Idiot

Lời bài hát kèm hợp âm cùng dòng

[Verse 1]
[D]I often take these nig[Bm]ht shift wal[D]ks
When the [G]foreman's not [Bm]around
I turn my [G]back on the [D]cooling stacks
[G]And mak[D]e for ope[Em]n gro[A]und
Far [Bm]out beyo[G]nd the t[A]ank-farm fence
[D]fence
Where the [G]gas flare makes [Bm]no sound
I for[G]get the stink and I always think
Back [D]to that [A]Eastern [D]town

[Verse 2]
[Chorus] [G]So I
[A]bid farewell to the [D]Eastern town
I [Bm]never [D]more will see
But [G]work [A]I must so I [D]eat this dust
And [Bm]breathe re[Em]finery[A]
Oh I [Bm]miss the [G]green and the
[A]woods and [D]streams
And I [G]don't like cowboy [Bm]clothes
But I [G]like being free and [D]that makes [G]me
An [D]idiot, [A]I suppose.
I remember [D]back six years ago This western life

[Verse 3]
[D]
[A]I c[Bm]hose[D][G]
[Bm]And [G]every
day the news would say
Some [D]factory's going [G]to[D][Em]
[A]clo[Bm]se[G][A][D][G]
Well, I could have stayed to
[Bm]take the dole
But I'm not one of those.
[G]I take nothing free,
and that makes me,
An idiot, [D]I suppose.[G]
[D][A][D]

[Verse 4]
So come all [A]you fine young [Bm]fellows
[D]Who've been [G]beaten to the [Bm]ground
This [G]western life's no [D]paradis[G]e,
But it's [D]better than [Em]lying [A]down.
Oh the [Bm]streets aren't [G]clean,
and there's [A]nothing [D]green,
And the [G]hills are dirty [Bm]brown,
But the [G]government dole will [D]rot your soul
[G]Back the[D]re in you[A]r home tow[D]n.
So [G]bid [A]farewell to the

[Verse 5]
[D]Eastern town
You [Bm]never [A]more will [D]see.
There's [G]self-respect and
and a [D]steady check
In [Bm]this re[Em]finery.[A]
You will [Bm]miss the [G]green
and the [A]woods and streams
[D]And the dus[G]t will fill your nos[Bm]e.
But [G]you'll be free, and [D]just like [G]me,
[D]An idiot, [A]I suppos[D]e.[Bm][G]
