This is your classic boogie rhythm song. Chords
Are as listed
[A]Ladies and gentlemen, attention please
[A]Come in close so everyone can see
I got a [D]tale to tell, a listen don't cost a [A]dime
And if you [E]believe that we're gonna get along just [A]fine
Now [A]I've been travelin' all around
[A]I heard trouble's come to your town
I've [D]got a little somethin' guaranteed to ease your [A]mind
It's call [E]Snake Oil y'all, it's been around for a long, long [A]time
Kick in distortion:
Say, your crops'll burn if it don't rain soon
Ain't seen a drop since the tenth of June
Well I can open up the sky, people have no fear
If you ain't impressed yet, just tell me what you wanna hear
Well you lost your farm so you moved to town
You get a job, they shut the factory down
Now you sit around all day long feelin' sad and blue
You need Snake Oil y'all, tell you what I'm gonna do
I can [D]heal the sick and I can mend the [A]lame
And the [D]blind shall see again, it's all the [E]same
Well ain't your President good to you
Knocked 'em dead in Libya, Grenada too
Now he's taking his show a little further down the line
'Tween me and him people, you're gonna get along just fine
