Slow
Opening riff - (bouncy single notes) E-G, E-G G Chord (4 beats) C Chord (4beats)
G C
I met a man sitting in the sand
G C
Couldda been just like Viet Nam
G C
Shakey fingers, Steady Palm
G C
Then at once it all went calm and he said...
Chorus:
G C
What does Chicago Mean and
G C
Can ya tell me what your grandpa seen because I
G C
Saw it once on a movie Screen in
D
Baghdad
Showed me pictures of his wife and kids
Told me things his crazy brother did
He was the keeper for Basra Red
He made love in a shaky bed
(Chorus)
(Jam)
Then at once it all got clear
I told him that I could use a beer
Don't drink, but I know what you mean
Before we laughed they shot his face off clean and I thought:
(Alt Chorus)
What does Baghdad mean and
Can ya tell me what yer Grandpa seen because I
Saw it once on a movie screen in Bosie
(Chorus )
(Chorus)
