Key: C major•
Verse 1
he was doin' just fine
With a song on the charts,
he was deep in the hearts
Of every brown -eyed pigtail female
And when the interviewer
started to pull him apart
He was leanin' on the
screen and talkin'
About bein' up there,
C
G
C
soundin' way down here
He spoke of peace and of love
and of sexual friends
he said you can't be
Well, he played me this song
I said it and now that I read it
So dumb and so foolish
So just out of school -ish
I know I can get by on my
song and my heart
And now I regret it
And I read it in
Rolling
C
Stone
And when the sales went down
He could finally be found
at a revival affair
Down in
Madison
Square
Where every brown -eyed,
And when the magazine man
Asked him for his stand
He was reminded of the time
He was standing in line out there
And he spoke of heading for
Woodstock
And getting it together
To love your brother
Gm
G
Well, he was cursin' them mothers
and ready for fightin'
C
Doggone it, I said it, and now that I read it
So dumb and so foolish,
so just out of schoolish
I know I can get by on my
song and my heart

Verse 2
Woodstock, getting it together
F
and taking the time out to love your brother
Well, he was cursing them mothers
And here's how it went,
And now that I read it,
So dumb, so foolish,
so just out of schoolish
I know I can get by on my
song and my heart
Some folks will leave me alone
F
G
Well, doggone it, I said it now,
