Am
Well, we live in a trailer at the edge of town
You never see us 'cause we don't come around.
F Am
We got twenty five rifles just to keep the population down.
Dm Am
But we need you now, and that's why I'm hangin' 'round.
F
So you be good to me and I'll be good to you,
E Am
And in this land of conditions I'm not above suspicion
I won't attack you, but I won't back you.
Well, it's so good to be here, asleep on your lawn.
Remember your guard dog? Well, I'm afraid that he's gone.
It was such a drag to hear him whining all night long.
Yes, that was me with the doves, setting them free near the factory
Where you built your computer, love.
I hope you get the connection, 'cause I can't take the rejection
I won't deceive you, I just don't believe you.
(Solo over verse chords)
Well, I'm a barrel of laughs, with my carbine on
I keep 'em hoppin', till my ammunition's gone.
But I'm still not happy, I feel like there's something wrong.
I got the revolution blues, I see bloody fountains,
And ten million dune buggies comin' down the mountains.
Well, I hear that Laurel Canyon is full of famous stars,
But I hate them worse than lepers and I'll kill them in their cars.
