way, I've placed the chords over the lyric that marks the progression.
COld Man Johnson got his head in his hand
Makin' his way across state in a fiddlin' band
With his hair aAmll down in his eyes
And the microphone Call covered with flies.
When he gets done playin' goes back to his room
Climbs into bed in his cowboy boots
And he picks up Ama magazine turns on the TV
CLights a cigar as he's fallin' asleep.
Well he's only a pFerson...wCho doesn'Amt know shit.
                            F        C  Am(let ring)
Yeah nothing happenin'...that's about it.
CYeah......
CWell, little Rosanna came from Texarkana
Had fourteen dollars wrapped in a bandana.
AmCame into town not lookin' for much
Well she found a hCound dog and she named him "Dutch."
She got a job at the arcade takin' quarters
But she was never too good at takin' orders
So one nighAmt she stopped givin' out change
She kickCed the boss in the chin and unplugged the games.
She's onlFy a person...whCo doesn'Amt know shit.
           F               C  Am(let ring)

He punched out the clock that night.
His Amknuckle was bleeding as he walked home,
He was cold Cand he had a headache.
Well his wife was cookin' canned beans,
He took out all the money out of his jeans
And he set it Amon fire in the kitchen sink
As his wife Chanded him a drink.

way, I've placed the chords over the lyric that marks the progression.

Old Man Johnson got his head in his hand

Makin' his way across state in a fiddlin' band

With his hair all down in his eyes

And the microphone all covered with flies.

When he gets done playin' goes back to his room

Climbs into bed in his cowboy boots

And he picks up a magazine turns on the TV

Lights a cigar as he's fallin' asleep.

Well he's only a person...who doesn't know shit.

Yeah......

Well, little Rosanna came from Texarkana

Had fourteen dollars wrapped in a bandana.

Came into town not lookin' for much

Well she found a hound dog and she named him "Dutch."

She got a job at the arcade takin' quarters

But she was never too good at takin' orders

So one night she stopped givin' out change

She kicked the boss in the chin and unplugged the games.

Sam got canned at the cannery

He punched out the clock that night.

His knuckle was bleeding as he walked home,

He was cold and he had a headache.

Well his wife was cookin' canned beans,

He took out all the money out of his jeans

And he set it on fire in the kitchen sink

As his wife handed him a drink.

Smiley was lookin' for handouts

sleepin' in a abandoned lighthouse.

Down at the mini-mall shakin' his hat

Washin' windows with his bare hand.
