            C
Most of the time
    F
I'm clear focused all around
            C
Most of the time
           F
I can keep both feet on the ground
Am                      F
  I can follow the path,  I can read the sign
Am                   F
  Stay right with it   when the road unwinds
                 C                F
I can handle whatever I stumble upon
             Am             F

F#m          A             E        C#m
Crickets are chirpin', the water is high,
          F#m         A            E            F#m
There's a soft cotton dress on the line hangin' dry.
F#m         A     E       C#m
Window wide open, African trees
F#m       A                E         F#m
Bent over backwards from a hurricane breeze.
      E
Not a word of goodbye, not even a note
    F#m           A          E          F#m
She gone with the man in the long black coat.

Somebody seen him hangin' around
At the old dance hall on the outskirts of town.

          C                   C/e
There's a whole lot of people suffering tonight
            F                   C/e F
from the disease of conceit
                    D/f#
Whole lot of people struggling tonight
         F/g
from the disease of conceit
Am                   C/g     F                 C
Comes right down the highway straight down the line
Am             C/g                 F             C
Rips into your senses through your body and your mind
         D/f#           C/g
Nothing about it that's sweet
    F/g           C
The disease of conceit.

A
Well the woman that I love she got a hook in her nose

Her eye brows meet she wears second hand clothes
    D
She speaks with a stutter and she walks with a hop
  A
I don't know why I love her but I just can't stop.
    D               A
You know I love her yeah I love her
E                                        A
I'm in love with the ugliest girl in the world.

If I ever lose her I will go insane
I go half crazy when she calls my name
When she says "ba-ba-ba-ba-baby I l'-l'-love you
There ain't nothing in the world that I wouldn't do.

G    F    C    G

G        F           C         G
Stake my future on a hell of a past
G            F           C         G
Looks like tomorrow is a coming on fast
G        F              C      G
Ain't complaining about what I got
G           F         C       G
Seen better times but who has not.

Silvio silver and gold
Won't buy back the beat of a heart grown cold
Silvio I gotta go
Find out something only dead men know.

Honest as the next jade rolling that stone
When I come and knockin' don't throw me no bone
I'm an old boll weevil looking for a home

Capo 3rd fret (sounding key C minor)
