Just a compilation of the chords to one of my favorite albums, no real credit to me. 1. Five Years (anonymous) G* Pushing Through the Market Square

^EmSo many mothers sighing ^ANews had just come over ^C/GWe had 5 years left to cry in

News guy wept and told us earth eas really dying Cried so much, his face was wet Then i knew he was not lying. G Am G I heard telephones, opera house, favorite melodies

I ^Bmsaw ^Emboys, toys, electric irons and T.V's My ^Abrain hurt like a ware house, it had no room to spare C I had to cram so many things to store ev'ry thing in there

And all the fat-skinny people^Am, ^C/G and all the tall-short people^Am ^C/G G* C/G And all the nobody people, and all the somebody people ^D

I never thought I'd need so many people C/G G Repeat the 4 chords now for the rest of the song with the strumming pattern D DUDU X4 for each chord which starts with the normal G after "i never thought i'd need many people." G* A girl my age went off her head,

^Emhit some tiny children ^AIf the black hadn't a-pulled her off, ^C/GI think she would have killed them

A soldier with a broken arm Fixed his state to the wheels of a Cadilac A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest And a queer threw up at at the sight of that I think i saw you in an ice cream parlor Drinking milkshakes cold and long smiling and waving and looking so fine Don't think you knew you were in this song And it was cold, and it rained, so i felt like an actor And i thought of Ma, and i wanted to get back there Your face, Your race, the way that you talk I kiss you, you're beautiful, I want you to walk. we got G* We've got five years, stuck on my eyes
