Tom: D
D D
I miss the strawman, and dottie two
G
I've heard the lyin', the tinman's blue
Em G D / D(with open 1. and 3 string) / D
I've seen the witches, both good and bad, I'm glad I had
D D
I held the rabbit, the rabbit died
G G
Talked to the preacher, the preacher lied
Em G
I held my mother, my mother cried
D / D(with open 1. and 3 string) / D
Cried for my father
[Chorus]
D D
And so please don't talk about life to me
G G
I've seen more than most people my age have seen
Em G
And there ain't no rules on how it's gotta be
D / D(with open 1. and 3 string) / D
Think again
D D
Oh and please don't talk about love to me
G G
'Cause I've given love and I've received
Em G
And you know I'm gonna love just who I please
D / D(with open 1. and 3 string) / D
Think again
[Verse)
D D
I crossed an ocean and wrote this song
G G
A million people, but I can't find one
Em G D / D(with open 1. and 3 string) / D
I loved Katrina, but now she's gone, gone to my father
D D
This here's a story, I sing for you
G G
It may sound funny, but know it's true
Em G D / D(with open 1. and 3 string) / D
I hope you get it, before I'm through, I hope you do
