Am
Well we live in a trailer at the end of town
Am
you never see us cause we don't come around.
F
We've got twenty five rifles
Am
just to keep the population down
Dm7                                Am
But we need you now and that's why I'm hangin' around
F
So be good to me and I'll be good to you
E7
and in this land of conditions
Am
I'm not above suspicion I won't attack but I won't back you.

INTRO RIFF (x4)

Am
Well it's so good to be here a sleep on your lawn
Am
remember your guard dog? Well I'm afraid that he's gone.
F                                         Am
It was such a drag to hear him whining all night long.   ooo.
Dm7
Yes that was me with the doves setting them free
Am
near the factory where you build your computer love.
F
I hope you get the connection cause I can't
E7
take the rejection
Am
I won't deceive you  I just don't believe you

SOLO (over VERSE chords)

Am
Well I'm a barrell of laughs with my carbine on
Am
I keep them hoppin' till my ammunition gone
F                                               Am
But I'm still not happy,  I feel like there's somethin' wrong
Dm7
I've got the revolution blues
Am
I see bloody fountians and ten million dune buggies comin' down the mountain.
F
Well I hear the Laurel Canyon
E7
is full of famous stars,
Am
but I hate them worse than lepers and I'll kill them in their cars.
