[Chorus]
A E A
Lee Harvey was a friend of mine,
D A
He used to take me fishin' all the time.
D A F#m
He used to throw a ball to me when I was just a kid,
A N.C. E N.C. A
They say he shot the president, but I don't think he did.
[Verse 1]
A D A
Well, I was born in Dallas in nineteen fifty-two
B E
And Lee Harvey lived across the street on Ripley Avenue.
D A F#m
He used to throw a ball to me when I was just a kid,
A N.C. E N.C. A
They say he shot the president, but I don't think he did.
[Chorus]
A E A
Lee Harvey was a friend of mine,
D A
He used to take me fishin' all the time.
D A F#m
He used to throw a ball to me when I was just a kid,
A N.C. E N.C. A
They say he shot the president, but I don't think he did.
[Verse 2]
A D A
Well, I've seen that picture of him holdin' pamphlets and a gun,
B E
And there's shadows pointin' every which way, but only just one sun.
D A F#m
Someone faked that photo and then snuck away and hid,
A N.C. E N.C. A
They say he shot the president, but I don't think he did.
[Riff]
A E A
Lee Harvey was a friend of mine
[Verse 3]
A D A
Well, I saw it all on TV, Lee Harvey got gunned down,
B E
And he was killed off by Jack Ruby, the biggest sleaze in town.
D A F#m
He stuck a gun into his ribs and said, "Here's lookin' at you, kid,"
A N.C. E N.C. A
Jack Ruby killed Lee Harvey - my TV proved he did.
[Chorus]
A E A
Lee Harvey was a friend of mine,
D A
He used to take me fishin' all the time.
D A F#m
He used to throw a ball to me when I was just a kid,
A N.C. E N.C. A
They say he shot the president, but I don't think he did.
[Outro]
A N.C. E N.C. D A
And Lee Harvey was a friend of mine
