Verse 1
(G major) Well it was midnight cold and rainy
In the (Csus4) sleepy town of Fair (C major) burn
popula (G major) tion small
An angry man stood (C major) out on
mainstreet
Shiverin' in his coatsleeves by
the City (G major) Hall wall
The many (D major) of a car that
passed him in for an (C major) hour
But they wouldn't look at (G major) him at all (D major)
Verse 2
So he yelled (D major) damn you friends and neighbors
you (A major) won't give me a (D major) ride
My feet are sore from walking
and I'm (A major) frozed by in (D major) side
Lord a (G major) man could catch his (C major) death
of colds or a (G major) severe case of flu (C major)
Thanks to friends and neighbors

Verse 3
Well he come storming into
my restaurant
(C major) Dripping water soaked and were
in (G major) a freezing cold
I poured him a hot (C major) black cup of coffee
took his coat off cursing mad
And here's the tale (G major) that he old
Said I picked (D major) up a young hitchhiker
Took my bill (C major) fold and my car and
left me off (G major) down the road (D major)
Verse 4
Well I must have (G major) walked
for hours to get here
Went to see (C major) your friendly sheriff
in my (G major) desperation
He'd just sit (C major) there and pick his teeth
Laughed a little when I told him
of my (G major) sitation
And when I (D major) finished he
leaned back and belched
(C major) Said let me see some identi (G major) fication (D major)
Verse 5
Cause he said damn (D major) you friends and neighbors
seems like (A major) every Saturday night (D major)
I get an awful full of this same old bull
cause I'm (A major) drunk as off half (D major) tight
Hey (G major) the weekend's same old (C major) story
don't get (G major) home till one or two (C major)
Thanks to friends and neighbors
like you
(F major) (C major) (G major)
Verse 6
Well I called your sheriff a dirty name
Then was (C major) thrown out through
his front door by a (G major) big deputy
I (C major) hit that sidewalk cursin' shook
my fist back in his face
Said you can't (G major) do this to me
Cause I'm a (D major) circuit judge
for Monroe sheriff
And (C major) you gonna pay for all this (G major) indignity (D major)
Verse 7
Well I've (G major) seen some angry people
But I've (C major) never seen a man as
mad as (G major) that fellow was
He said I (C major) never did like feather I hate
the rain I hate hitchhikers
And I'm sick of (G major) your local fuss
And if (D major) ever I saw one town that
(C major) needs another sheriff
This is (G major) one town that does (D major)
Verse 8
And he yelled (D major) damn you friends and neighbors
as he (A major) grabbed his coat to leave (D major)
Well it's just too (A major) funny to believe (D major)
Lord (G major) I could write a (C major) book of jokes
(G major) about what I've been through (C major)
In this town of friends and neighbors
Outro 1

(G major) (G major)
