| Traffic cops are all color blind. |
| People steal from their own kind. |
| Evening comes to early for a stroll. |
| Down neon streets the streaker streaks. |
| The speaker speaks, but the truth still leaks, |
| where even Richard Nixon has got soul. |
| Podium rocks in the crowded wawes. |
| The speaker talks of the beautiful saves |
| that went down long before he played this role |
| for the hotel queens and the magazines, |
| test tube genes and slot machines |
| Bb | C | Dm | Bb | Dm | G | |
| where | even Richard Nixon has | got it, | soul. |
| Hospitals have made him cry, |
| but there's always a free way in his eye, |
| though his beach just got to crowded for his stroll. |
| Roads stretch out like healthy veins, |
| and wild gift horses strain the reins, |
| where even Richard Nixon has got soul. |
| Bb | C | Dm | Bb | G | Bb | A7 | Dm | |
| Even Richard Nixon has got s | oul. |
| I am a lonely visitor. |
| I came to late to cause a stir, |
| though I campaigned all my life towards that goal. |

| I play it in D, though i think it might be capoed at the 2nd fret on |
| the lp. |
| Intro revolves around a D to D/E (lift your 2nd finger to let the high |
| E ring about 4 times) then a D/G (?) which i play by adding a G bass |
| on top of the same D structure on the 1st & 2nd strings |
| D ____D/E____ ____D/G____ |
| |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| |
|_|_|_X_|_O |_|_|_X_|_| <---alternate fretting and open
| |_|_|_|_X_| X_|_|_|_X_| |
| |_|_|_|_|_| |_|_|_|_|_| |
| lesse, verses (this is hard to do w/o a guitar handy) |

| 50 52 40 52 (Bm) 50 63 (G) |
| 50 52 40 52 (Bm) 50 60 (E) |
| (that's the little bass riff) |
| The Bm/A chord i play by fretting a Bm at 2nd fret, then lift off |
| the barre and let the A and high E strings ring open. |
| that should get you there...where even richard nixon has got soul. |
