Tom: D5

D5              D5
Rock-a-bye baby on the treetop
              D5                    G5
When the wind blows the cradle will rock
   D5                     A5
Oh babe, hate to see you fall that way
B5                              A5    G5
Better speak to the Powers That Be today
 

D5                                A5
Hey Joe where you goin' with that gun in your hand?
        B5                            A5          G5
You can take your revenge, but you'll still feel bad
             D5                                    A5
There must be more to life than Lucky Strikes and some unlucky ones,
C5                G5         D5
Folded flags and pipes and drums
 

D5                                  D5
I stood in the wings with you, our lives in the hands of a second-rate actor
D5                                  G5
Held on the high ground of some big stage
   D5                  A5
Oh babe, how do these jaded stars get so far away?
B5                             A5      G5
Will they catch what the other actors say?
 

D5                                 A5
Hey Joe where you goin' with that dogma in your head?
        B5                                   A5        G5
You can prove your point but your kids will still be dead
D5                                 A5
Bring down the curtain, this soap opera must surely close
C5          G5          D5
Before the cold wind blows
 

G5                                 D5
Hey Joe where you goin' with that gun in your hand?
        G5                                        D5
You can take your revenge, but you'll still feel bad
E5             A5                  E5                A5
Bring down the curtain, this soap opera must surely close
F#5        F5        E5
Before the cold wind blows
 

D5                 D5
So rock-a-bye babe on the treetop
              D5                    G5
When the wind blows the cradle will rock
             D5                                    A5
There must be more to life than Lucky Strikes and some unlucky ones,
B5               D5        E5        D5
Folded flags and pipes and drums
