Steve Earle - Snake Oil guitar chord

Snake Oil:By Steve Earle

A

Ladies and gentalmen,attention please

Come in close so everyone can see

D A

Igot a tale and a listen don't cost a dime

E A

And If you believe that we're gonna get along just fine

A

Now I've been travelin'all around

I heard trouble come to your town

D A

I've got a little somethin' guaranteed to ease your mind

E A

It's called snake oil ya'll and it's been around a long,long time

(the 3rd and 4th and 5th verses are the same)

Well the crops'll burn if don't rain soon

Ain't seen a drop since the tenth of June

Well I can Open up the sky,people have no fear

If you ain't impressed yet ,tell what you want to hear

Well you lost your farm,so you moved to town

Get a job,they shut the factory down

Now you sit roundall day feeling sad and blue

You need snake oil ya'll tell you what I'm goona do

D A

I can heal the sick and Ican mend the lame

D E

And the blind shall see again,It's all the same

Well ain't your president good to you

Knocked em' dead in Libya and Granada too

Now he's taken' that show a little farther down the line

'Tween me and him people,you're gonna get along just fine

Called snake oil Ya'll etc.....
