 crd lyr
 
  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
  F# A shadow is cast wherever he stands
  E  Stacks of green paper in his red right hand
  B

  B  You'll see him in your nightmares, you'll see him in your dreams
  B  He'll appear out of nowhere but he aint what he seems
  E  You'll see him in your head, on the TV screen
     And hey buddy, I'm warning you to turn it off
  B  He's a ghost, he's a god, he's a man, he's a guru
  F# You're one microscopic cog in his catastrophic plan
  E  Designed and directed by his Red Right Hand
