INTRO: (x3)
Cadd9/ Am  
G7sus4/ Cadd2  
Cadd9Grandpa, here's your Amcoffee,
Cadd9Said Edith, as she filled Amhis cup.
Cadd9Nobody'll find you Amhere,
G7sus4And Earl is glad you guys Cadd2showed up.
Cadd9The way things are Amdowntown,
Cadd9You might have to stay for Ama while,
Cadd9There was a helicopter hovering over Amyour house
G7sus4When I talked to your neighbor Cadd2Kyle.
Cadd9Who the hell do they think they Amare,
Cadd9Invading our home like Amthat?
Cadd9Grandma and I had to leave so Amfast,
G7sus4We couldn't even catch the Cadd2cat.
Cadd9The helicopter scared the shit out Amof him,
Cadd9And it took off down the Amtrail,
Cadd9Down past the railroad Amtrack,
G7sus4Towards the county Cadd2jail.
BRIDGE 1:
Cadd9/ Am(x3)
G7sus4/ Cadd2  
Cadd9Jed, you really screwed up Amnow!
Cadd9What did you have to do that Amfor?
Cadd9Everybody wants to hang your Amass,
G7sus4And here's a note from Cadd2Lenore.
Cadd9Sun touched the cold Amsteel bars
Cadd9As she pushed the paper Amin.
Cadd9Jed took it up and read Amit
G7sus4And he couldn't hide a Cadd2grin.
Cadd9Outside the jail Amwindow
Cadd9A crow flew across Amthe sky,
Cadd9Completely disappearing behind Ameach bar,
G7sus4Then a helicopter flew Cadd2by.
Cadd9Say hi to Earl and Edith. Am  
Cadd9Tell 'em I'm doing fine. Am  
Cadd9Tell 'em you're ready to Amleave home now,
G7sus4They should cut the Cadd2line.
Cadd9Can Grandma come and see Amme?
Cadd9I got a new song to Amsing
Cadd9It's longer than all the others Amcombined
G7sus4And it doesn't mean a Cadd2thing.
BRIDGE 2: (x2)
Cadd9/ Am  
G7sus4/ Cadd2  
Cadd9The noise was unAmfamiliar,
Cadd9Walkie-talkies sqAmuelled,
Cadd9Generators were Amrunning,
G7sus4Vans parked in the Cadd2field.
Cadd9TV crews and camAmeras,
Cadd9They wanted to interview Grandpa Amon the porch.
Cadd9They came through the gate and up Amon the lawn
G7sus4Knocking down Edith's Cadd2Tiki Torch.
Cadd9And Grandpa saw them Amthere,
Cadd9Looking through the venetAmian blind.
Cadd9Those people don't have any Amrespect,
G7sus4So they won't get any of Cadd2mine.
Cadd9I ain't wanna talk about AmJed.
Cadd9I don't watch channel 2 or 6 or Am9.
Cadd9I don't have time to talk that Amfast,
G7sus4And it ain't my Cadd2crime.
Cadd9It ain't an honor to be on AmTV
Cadd9And it ain't a duty eiAmther.
Cadd9The only good thing about AmTV
G7sus4Is shows like 'Leave it to Cadd2Beaver'.
Cadd9Shows with love and Amaffection,
Cadd9Like Mama used to Amsay.
Cadd9A little Mayberry Amliving
G7sus4Could go a long Cadd2way.
Cadd9He took Earl's gun down from the Amcloset,
Cadd9Loaded up both barrels. Am  
Cadd9Went out on the porch and fired Am'em off,
G7sus4And up walked a woman named Cadd2Carol.
Cadd9Susan Carol from Early AmMagazine,
Cadd9I got some questions to Amask.
Cadd9Well you can stick 'em where the sun Amdon't shine!
G7sus4Grandpa said with a Cadd2gasp.
Cadd9Then he fell face first and let out Ama sigh,
Cadd9Edith came out in Amshock.
Cadd9Grandpa was whispering to her from down Amon the floor,
G7sus4he looked like he was trying to Cadd2talk.
Cadd9That guy just keeps Amsingin'!
Cadd9Can somebody shut him Amup?
Cadd9I don't know for the life Amof me
G7sus4Where he comes up with this Cadd2stuff.
BRIDGE 3: (x3)
Cadd9/ Am  
G7sus4/ Cadd2  
Cadd9They laid his head on a Amnewspaper
Cadd9With a picture of Carmichael on the Amfront page,
Cadd9Posing with the little league Ambaseball team,
G7sus4And a seedy shot of Jed with Cadd2a motorcycle.
Cadd9Grandpa died like a Amhero,
Cadd9Fighting for freedom of Amsilence,
Cadd9Trying to stop the Ammedia,
G7sus4Trying to be anonCadd2ymous.
BRIDGE 4: (x2)
Cadd9/ Am  
G7sus4/ Cadd2  
SOLO
Cadd9Share your loving and Amyou live so long
Cadd9Share your loving and Amyou live so long
Cadd9Share your loving and Amyou live so long
G7sus4Live so longCadd2
