  [B]Take a little walk to the edge of town, go across the tracks

  [B]Where the viaduct looms like a bird of doom, as it shifts and cracks

  [E]Where secrets lie in the border fires, in the humming wires,

  Hey man, you know you're never coming back

  [B]Past the square, past the bridge, past the mills, past the stacks

  [F#]On a gathering storm comes a tall handsome man

  [E]In a dusty black coat with a red right hand

  [B]

  [B]

  [B]He'll wrap you in his arms, tell you that you've been a good boy

  [B]He'll rekindle all the dreams it took you a lifetime to destroy

  [E]He'll reach deep into the hole, heal your shrinking soul,

  But there won't be a single thing that you can do

  [B]He's a ghost, he's a god, he's a man, he's a guru

  [F#]They're whispering his name through this disappearing land

  [E]But hidden in his coat is a red right hand

  [B]

  [B]  

  [B]You don't own no money?  He'll get you some

  [B]You don't have no car?  He'll get you one

  [E]You don't have no self respect, you feel like an insect,

  Well don't you worry buddy cause here he comes

  [B]Through the ghetto and the barrio and the bowery and the slum

  [A] 

  [F#]shadow is cast wherever he stands

  [E]Stacks of green paper in his red right hand
