Steve Earle Christmas In Washington written by Steve Earle

Eb

It's Christmas time in Washington

Ab

The Democrats rehearsed

Bb

Getting into gear for four more years

Ab Eb

Things not getting worse

Eb

Republicans drink whiskey neat

Ab

And thank their lucky stars

Bb

Said he cannot seek another term

Ab Eb

They'll be no more FDRs

Eb

I sat home in Tennessee

Ab

Just Staring at the screen

Bb

An un-easy feeling in my chest

Ab Eb

And I'm wondering what it means

Eb

So come back Woody Guthrie

Ab

Come back to us now

Bb

Tear your eyes from paradise

Ab Eb

And rise again some how

Eb

If you run into Jesus

Ab

Maybe he can help you out

Bb Ab Bb Eb

Come back Woody Guthrie to us now

instrumental

Eb

I Followed in your footsteps once

Ab

Back in my travel days

Bb

Somewhere I failed to find your trail

Ab Eb

Now I'm stumblin' through the haze

But there's killers on the highway

Ab

And man can't get around

Bb

So I sold my soul for wheels that roll

Ab Eb

And I'm stuck here in this town

Eb

So come back Woody Guthrie

Ab

Come back to us now

Bb

tear your eyes from paradise

Ab Eb

And rise again some how

Eb

If you run into Jesus

Ab

Maybe he can help us out

Bb Ab Bb Eb

Come back Woody Guthrie to us now

Eb

There's foxes in the hen house

Ab

Cows out in the corn

Bb

The Unions have been busted

Ab Eb

The proud red banners torn

Eb

To you listen to the radio

Ab

You'd think it all was real

Bb

But you and me and Cisco know

Ab Bb Eb

It's going straight to hell

Eb

So come back Emma Goldman

Ab

Rise up old Joe Hill

Bb

The barracades are going up

Ab Eb

They cannot break our will

Eb

Come back to us Malcolm X

Ab

And Martin Luther King

Bb

We're marching into Selma

Ab Bb Eb

As the bells of freedom ring

Eb

So come back Woody Guthrie

Ab

Come back to us now

Bb

Ttear your eyes from paradise

Ab Bb Eb

And rise again some how
