Text File

Here's "Little Pink Houses". It's a fun song to play. As you listen to the recorded version, you'll get the feel. G-C-G (play 4 times) When you're doing the intro, just let off the A string for that Johnny Cougar feel... G G There's a black man, with a black head (?) G G Living in a black neighborhood G G He's got a interstate running through his front yard G F C G You know he thinks he's....got it so good. G G G And there's a woman, in the kitchen, cleaning up the evening slop G F And he looks at 'er and says C G Hey Darlin' I remember when you could, stop a clock C G But ain't that America, for you and me C G Ain't that America, somethin' to see baby C D Ain't that America, home of the free C G Little Pink Houses for you and me, yeah for you and me BACK TO INTRO X4 G G G G Now there's a young man, in a t-shirt, listening to a rock and rollin' station G G He's got greasy hair and a, greasy smile, F C G he says "Lord this must be my destination" G G G G I remember, when I was younger, say'n "Boy ya gonna be the President" F C G But just like everything else, those crazy dreams, kinda came and went REPEAT CHORUS REPEAT INTRO X4 VERSE 3: G G G Now there's people, and more people, and what do they know know know G G F C G Go to work in some high-rise, and vacation down at the Gulf of Mexico!!! (ooooh yeah) G G G G There's winners, and there's losers, but that ain't no big deal F C G Cause the simple man, baby, pays the bills, the thrills, the bills that kill(?) REPEAT CHORUS REPEAT INTRO 4 TIMES END ON G
