(Intro)

G

Well, I had me a pigeon

C

By the name of Fred

G

But I done shot him

C

In the head

G

Had me a railroad

C

Down on the ridge

G

But I done blowed up

C

The bridge

G

Had me a dog

C

He was my best friend

G

But to him

C

I done put an end

G

Had me a farm

C

Sittin' pretty on the hill

G

But if you look

C

You'll see it ain't there still

Gm7 C

I don't know why I done it

Gm7 C

Honest, it ain't like me

Gm7 C

But I ain't sad now I done it

Gm7 C G

'Cause a baby boy has got to be free
