  	WHO AM I - Country Joe and the Fish

   

  

  

    C    G   C               G          D7    

  Who am I     to stand and wonder, to wait

   C                     G            C             G 

    While the wheels of fate slowly grind my life away

   C       G

    Who am I

  

    (G)                          C

  There were some things that I loved one time

            G                 C

  But the dreams are gone I thought were mine

           G                C

  And the hidden tears that once did fall

       G                   C

  Now burn inside at the thought of all 

       G                   C

  The years of waste, the years of cryin'

       G             C

  The passions of a heart so blind

       G             C

  To think that, but even still

         G                   C

  As I stand exposed to the feelings I felt

          G   C        D7           G          

  And I cried into the echoes of my loneliness

  

  CHORUS

  

  What a nothing I've made of life

  The empty words, the coward's plight

  To be pushed and passed from hand to hand

  Never daring to speak never daring to stand

  And the emptiness in my family's eye

  Reminds me over and over of lies 

  And promises and deeds undone

  And now again I have to run

  But now there is nowhere to run to

  

  CHORUS

  

  Now my friend we meet again

  And we shall see which one will bend

  Under the strain of death's golden eyes

  Which one of us will win the prize 

  To live - and which one will die

  'Tis I my friend, yes 'tis I

  Will kill to live again and again

  Clutch the throat of sweet revenge

  For life is here only for the taking

  

  CHORUS

  

  

  I hope these lyrics are correct.  I got the chords from Barry Melton, one of the Fish, in our short e-mail correspondence.  If anyone out there has chords or tabs for Rock Coast Blues, I would be eternally grateful.
