[C#]
[G]
Well, he walked into town, shot Johnny [C] down.
[G]
Then he sat on the [D] green.
[G] He was back from the war.
His brain was [C] on fire [G] and he lived [D] in the darkness [G] of dreams.
[C] Heaven knows [D] the kid [G] and the things that [C] he [Am] did were [G]
wrong.
But who is [D] to blame?
It's [C] as much [D] his crime [G] as it is [C] yours and [Am] mine.
[G] Shine a light [D] on the dark [C] of [D] ghost [G] town New York.
[C]
[G] We would sit by the tracks playing [D] [C] dice and [G] jacks when he lived at the Red Motor [D] Inn.
And when [G] his mother OD'd, he was [D] just a [C] bad seed [D] and [G] not one of us [D] here to carry.
[G]
[C] Heaven knows [D] the kid [G] and the things that [C] he did [G] were wrong.
But who is to [D] blame?
[Em] It's [C] as much [D] his crime [G] as it is yours [C] and mine.
[G] Shine a light [D] on the dark [C] of [D] ghost [G] town New York.
[D]
[G] So left at the fork, the [D] Cairo, New [C] York, and [G] that's where I'm stranded in [D] sorrow.
[G] But how can I go?
The fields deep [C] in snow [G] and no buses [D] run [G] till the morning.
[C]
Heaven knows [D] the kid [G] and the things that [C] he did [G] were wrong.
But who is to [D] blame?
It's [C] as much [D] his crime [G] as it is yours [C] and mine.
[G] Shine a [D] light on the dark [C] [G] of ghost town New York.

But who is [Bm] to blame?
