Taking Alcatraz  Field Report

CAPO: 2nd FRET
INTRO: D Dsus4 D Bm A G G D Dsus4 D
VERSE:
[D]So Richard Oaks gave[Dsus4] me a c[D]all
From San Francisco l[Bm]ate [A]in the f[G]all
He said it's going d[D]own[Dsus4] [D]
[D]He said we're gonna take the island
As a [Dsus4]monume[D]nt to the [Dsus2]smallpox bl[D]ankets
And the [Bm]bureaucrats
A[A]ll you got to do is c[G]ome along
Y[G]ou catch a bus tom[D]orrow[Dsus4] [D]
And if we d[G]ie there
Well at least we'll make a ch[D]oice[Dsus4] [D]
If we're f[G]ine there
We can tell the b[A]oys[Asus2] [A] [Asus2]
CHORUS:
That a l[A]ine in the sand
Don?t m[G]atter you don?t care [D] [Dsus4] [D]
That a b[A]ird in the hand is wo[G]rthless
You're too sc[D]ared[Dsus4] [D]
INSTRUMENTAL: D Bm A G G D Dsus4 D
VERSE:
So cl[D]ear my name and [Dsus4]clear my th[D]roat
Find my voice and h[Bm]ere we [A]go ag[G]ain
I need a place to st[D]and[Dsus4] [D]
I hear s[D]irens down the street from the[Dsus2] 3rd shift bar
I'm gonna [D] park my car in the p[Bm]ainted off pl[A]ace
Where the b[G]ikers park
See what happens t[D]hen[Dsus4] [D]
And if I d[G]ie here
Well at least I made a ch[D]oice[Dsus4] [D]
If I'm fi[G]ne here just please tell the b[A]oys[Asus2] [A] [Asus2]
CHORUS:
That a l[A]ine in the sand don?t m[G]atter
[Bm]You dont care[D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus4]
That a b[A]ird in the hand is w[G]orthless
Y[Bm]ou're too sc[D]ared
VERSE:
My fr[D]iends keep calling
I [Dsus2]don?t pick [D]up
I got n[D]othing to say
That I c[Bm]an?t just m[A]ake up anyw[G]ay
I've got all this sh*t to [D]do[Dsus4] [D]
I'[D]ve turned you off on the ra[A]di[Asus4]o
I t[D]urn around and it's in a[Bm] TV sh[A]ow
I turn that o[G]ff too
I remember when I k[D]new you[Dsus4] [D]
And if I'm f[G]ine here
Well I made my ch[D]oice[Dsus4] [D]
If I d[G]ie here
Please just tell the b[A]oys[Asus2] [A] [Asus2]

Y[Bm]ou're too sc[D]ared
