the pros and cons of hitchhiking\roger waters
----------------------------------------------
(Am)
an angel on a harley
                                       (Em)
pulls across to greet a fellow rollin' stone
(Am)
puts his bike up on his stand 

leans back and then extands
              (Em)
a scarred and greay hand...he said
(G)                                          (C)
how ya doin bro?...where ya been?...where ya goin'?
(Am)
then he takes your hand 

in some strange californian handshake
               (D)
and breaks the bone (have a nice day)
(Am)
a housewife from encino

whose husband's on the golf course
         (Em)
with his book of rules
(Am)
breaks and makes a 'U' and idles back
                         (Em)
to take a second look at you
(G)
you flex you rod 
               (C)
fish takes the hook
(Am)
sweet vodka and tobacco in her breath
                                    (D)
another number in your little black book
(Em)                           (G)  
these are the pros and cons of hitchhiking
(Em)                           (G)
these are the pros and cons of hitchhiking
(Am)              (D)
ho babe,I must be dreaming
(Am)
I'm standing on the leading edge
                                      (Em)
the eastren seaboard spread before my eyes
(Am)
"jump" says yoko ono
                                      (Em)
I'm too scared and too good looking i cried
(G)
"go on" she says
                       (C)
why dont you give it a try?
(Am)                               (D)
why prolong the agony all men must die

(solo)

(Am)
do you remember dick tracy?
                (Em)
do you remember shane?

and mother wants you
(Am)
could you see him selling tickets
                               (Em)
where the buzzard circies over (shane)

the body on the plain
(G)
did you understand the music yoko
                 (C)
or was it all in vain?(shane)
(Am)
the bitch said something mystical "herro"
(D)
so I stepped back on the kerp again
(Em)                           (G)
these are the pros and cons of hitchhiking.
(Em)                           (G)
these are the pros and cons of hitchhiking.
(Am)              (D)
ho babe,I must be dreaming again
(Em)                           (G)
these are the pros and cons of hitchhiking.
