The Troublemaker - Willie Nelson
[Intro]
  G
|  |
[Verse 1]
G                       Bm            Am
I could tell the moment that I saw Him
       G                             D/A
He was nothing but the trouble making kind
        C             Bm           C                     Bm
His hair was much too long and his motley group of friends
 F                                 Am
Had nothing but rebellion on their minds
[Verse 2]
G                               Bm         Am
He's rejected the establishment completely
G                                 D/A
I know for sure He's never held a job
C                         Bm    C               Bm
He just goes from town to town, stirring up the young folks
F                          Am           G
Till they're nothing but a disrespectful mob
[Verse 3]
       G/A                 D/A        A
I know for sure He's never joined the army
                                      D/A
And served his country like we all have done
     D                               A  D B A
He'd rather wear His sandals and His flowers
                                     D   B A
While others wage the war that must be won
[Verse 4]
G                                         Bm      Am
They arrested Him last week and found Him guilty
G                                      D/A
And sentenced Him to die but that's no great loss
C                 Bm           C                Bm
Friday they will take Him to a place called Calvary
F                                    G
And hang that troublemaker to a cross.
