Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D]
[G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Walkin' down
to Denver [D]town
I watched the western
sun go down.
Thought that [G]I would stop a [D]while,
Switch around my TV [G]dial.
Got some [C]free [D]Tee Vee . . . Only price
was a [G]little boredom.
Well, I'm not sure [D]about my taste But

[Verse 2]
it seemed that TV land was a waste.
I saw 30 West[G]erns, [D]30 Private [G]Eyes,
30 doctors operated be[D]fore my [G]eyes.
None of the operations was suc[D]cessful,
though . . . It's hard to operate
With so much violence [G]around.

[Verse 3]
[G]
Well, every few minutes they'd
take a [D]break
For a profound message
on a stomach ache.
They sold [G]cures for dandruff,
[D]milk from the farm
[G]Perfume [D]for [G]my underarms.
I've [D]had enough . . . I'm stickin'
to greasy [G]kid stuff.
Well, the blood and gore was upon the [D]floor And

[Verse 4]
I couldn't hardly stand no more,
So I walked outside to get some air.
A theater owner was [G]standing
there:
[D]Carryin' a picket sign . . . Said
Pay TV [G]was [D]un- Amer[G]ican.

[Outro 1]
