Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][Em]
[G][C][G][Em]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Captain Fant[C]astic, raised and regimented,
hardly a [G]hero[D]
Just [G]someone his [C]mother might [D]know
[Am]Very clearly a case [G]for
[Dm]Corn Flakes and clas[G]sics
[C]"Two teas both with sugar ple[Cm]ase"
[G]In the back of an all[Em]ey

[Verse 2]
[Am]While little dirt cowboys
[C]turned brown in their saddles
[G]Sweet chocolate [D]biscuits
and [G]red rosy [C]apples in [D]summer
For it's [Am]hay make and [G]"Hey mom,
[Dm]do the papers say anyt[G]hing good?
[C]Are there chances in life for
[Cm]little dirt cowboys?
[G]Should I make my way out of my [Bb]home
[C]in the woo[G]ds?"

[Verse 3]
[Am]Brown Dirt Cowboy,
[C]still green and growing
City slick [G]Captain[D]
Fan[G]tastic the feedback
[C]The honey, the hive could be hol[D]ding
For there's [Am]weak winged [G]young sparrows
[Dm]that starve in the winter[G]
[C]Broken young children on the
[Cm]wheels of the winners
[G]And the sixty-eight summer festival
[Bb]wallflowers [C]are thi[G]nning

[Chorus 1]
[Em]For cheap easy meals,
hardly a home on the [C]range
[Em]Too hot for the band
with a desperate desire for [C]change
[G]We've thrown in the tow[C]el too many tim[G]es
Out for the [C]count and when we're [G]down
Captain Fan[C]tastic and the
[G]Brown Dirt Cow[C]boy
From [Bb]the end of the [C]world to your [G]town

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][G][Em]

[Verse 4]
[Am]And all this talk of Jesus
[C]Coming back to see us
Mm- [G]hmm, couldn't fool [D]us
[G]For we were spinning out our lin[C]es
Walking on the [D]wire
[Am]Hand in hand went musi[G]c and the rhym[Dm]e
The [G]Captain and the [C]Kid
stepping in the [Cm]ring
[G]From here on sonny, sonny, son[Bb]ny,
it's a [C]long and lonely [G]climb

[Chorus 2]
[Em]For cheap easy meals,
hardly a home on the [C]range
[Em]Too hot for the band
with a desperate desire for [C]change
[G]We've thrown in the tow[C]el too many tim[G]es
Out for the [C]count and when we're [G]down
Captain Fan[C]tastic and the
[G]Brown Dirt Cow[C]boy
From [Bb]the end of the [C]world to your town
[G]We've thrown in the tow[C]el too many tim[G]es
Out for the [C]count and when we're [G]down
Captain Fan[C]tastic and the
[G]Brown Dirt Cow[C]boy
From [Bb]the end of the [C]world to your [G]town

[Outro 1]
[G][C][G][Em]
[G][C][G][Em]
[G][C][G][Em]
